Girke studied at the Werkkunstschule Hannover from 1951-52 and then attended the Staatliche Kunstakademie Düsseldorf until 1956. He found the formal style of Art Informel that prevailed there too subjective and pathetic, so that from the mid-1950s he continuously developed an independent, formally reduced style of painting. Girke's rapid success was reflected in his being awarded the Wolfsburg City Prize for Painting in 1959 and the Art Prize of the Youth in Stuttgart in 1962. from 1966 to 1971, he taught at the Werkkunstschule in Hanover before accepting an appointment at the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin. In the 1960s, he developed his painting further and also limited the color scale. The early principles of structuring the painting surface, such as parallel layers of paint in individual traces and grid-like, serial structures, became characteristic of his entire oeuvre. In the 1970s, Raimund Girke called for the total sensory overload to be "contrasted with quiet, reduced things and to lead the viewer back to concentration". An almost monochrome-white pictorial design with the finest differentiations in color and brightness dominated during this period and reached its purest form in the paintings for documenta VI in 1977. The color white became the "queen of colors" for Girke. In the 1980s and 1990s, his color palette mainly expanded to include various shades of gray, and the gestural moment of brushstrokes intensified once again. The personal style is almost eliminated in Girke's serial, structural orders and yet his works are characterized by a tension between sobriety and emotion. Girke's art has played a fundamental role in painting in Germany since the 1980s. In 1995, the artist was awarded the Lovis Corinth Prize. Raimund Girke lived and worked in Cologne and Berlin until his death in 2002. This piece has an attribution mark,
