Lothar Quinte belongs to the German avant-garde painters. From 1946 to 1951, he attended the private art academy ‘Bernsteinschule’, where he received his artistic training under Hans Ludwig Pfeiffer and HAP Grieshaber. In 1957, he became a member of the Deutsche Künstlerbund. He was extensively active as a glass painter and executed numerous windows for church interiors, including a beautiful ensemble in the Cathedral in Lübeck. Quinte was also a specialist in wall painting and was especially commissioned by theaters. His smaller works on paper and canvas are based on pure colors, that he applied in impressive and constantly renewed combinations and techniques. The artist's works are represented by numerous galleries in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and have been internationally exhibited since the late 1950s.
