Dirk Salz
Germany
Dirk Salz (Germany, b. 1962) developed a deep appreciation for painting and art history at a young age. Currently based in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, Salz’s creative process abandons traditional tools like brushes and canvases. Instead, he uses paint rollers and the gravitational force of resin to break free from minimalist conventions, exploring transparency, color dynamics, and the interplay between light and space. His works are part of the Akzo Nobel Art Foundation’s collection and numerous private collections worldwide.
