For years, VAN HAM has achieved great results in the segment of Concrete Art and is considered a reliable partner with proven expertise for works of this style, which is based on a long tradition in the Rhineland and Ruhr area. Pioneers here were "Der Spiegel" in Cologne or the Bochum "Galerie M". In the 1980s, the "Josef Albers Museum. Quadrat Bottrop" opened.
On the art market, works by Max Bill are the focus of collectors. With the formulations of Concrete Art, of which he is the most important theoretician, he finds his personal way of expression. Starting from a basic motif and using a continuous aesthetic rule in which mathematics plays an important role, he creates an enormous variety of form and color variations. In addition, guarantors for a safe investment: Rupprecht Geiger, Josef Albers, Julio Le Parc, Dóra Maurer and Georg Karl Pfahler. The immediate, sensual experience of a radiant colorfulness that characterizes the works of Concrete Art is highly attractive.
