Poul Gernes (he is in the Dokumenta in 2007?) and made the first comprehensive monograph on his work some years ago. He made his own school “eksperimantal art scool” in 1962. Poul Gernes was a hippie-ayatollah-painter and banned all galleries and decided only to paint public buildings and giant wall paintings in hospitals. He died in 1996. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poul_Gernes
