Andreas Brandt was born in 1935 and was a German painter. In 1954 he studied biology at the University of Halle. In 1955 he moved to West Berlin, where he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts under Ernst Schumacher until 1961. Between 1982 – 2001, Brandt worked as a professor of textile design at the College of Fine Arts Hamburg. Andreas Brandt was a member of the Deutscher Künstlerbund, in whose annual exhibitions he participated eight times between 1966 and 1980.
Brandt strove to create a concrete, autonomous visual world without any reference or representational function with simple, geometric forms. In the late sixties, Brandt developed a very personal, conceptual visual language with a precisely formulated, harmoniously balanced system structure and reduced color chords. He dealt with the systematic spread of colorful, black or gray lines on a white background. At first only with verticals on landscape format, but later horizontal lines were also added. He explored the balance between the surfaces and the proportions of the colors.
