Kirsten Geisler employs in her work with the interface between the real and virtual worlds . They discussed how these worlds are increasingly flowing into each other. Kirsten Geisler developed virtual sculptures using 3D and virtual reality technology. The body, its materiality, its traces and its presence in the media are the issues that shape their work and inspiration. Her work includes only computer-generated 3-D sculptures.
At the beginning created juxtapositions of real and virtual portraits of women such as Who are You?, [1] 1996. Geisler took it to the socio-political debate about the virtual and digital and the construction of identity in a digitally networked world. In the work of the series Virtual Beauties, [2] 1992-1996 the repertoire of the virtual 3-D characters, enhanced by the interaction with the viewer. The series focuses on the manifestation of feminine beauty ideals and reflects the obsession with beauty in a digitized and virtualized society. It works followed with full-length, stereotypical women's bodies such as Dream of Beauty, [3] 1997 - 2000, and" Catwalk I "-." Catwalk II ", 2004, these virtual models created without photographic model you are the synthesis of ideal images of a woman, as they are given us by the media. They correspond to the ideals of the fashion industry and plastic surgery . In "Catwalk II" moves the figure like a model on the catwalk and presented as in a film report from a fashion show. [4]
The development of this series with the version of "Brush Maya", 2011, transcends the boundaries between the real world and virtual world. Moved as a fictional character, Maya Brush in two worlds: the first time, leaving a virtual sculpture, the museum and art institutions dares step into the "real" life in the public media and global communication networks. Kirsten Geisler responds with "Maya Brush" on the increasing interconnectedness of our world: a virtual sculpture, whose body consists of a network of data, combined with his advocacy in the real world of media symbiosis with the global networks of our world.
Maya Brush [5] is a virtual, photorealistic sculpture, created by the artist Kirsten Geisler in 2008–2011. Maya Brush consist of bits and bytes; her name is a composition which refers to the tools with which she was put together: a combination of the software Maya and the ZBrush programme.
Maya Brush is the first virtual beauty, an artificial body, oriented at the human beauty ideal, without being created after a personal physical example. As a model she has become the reality of the dream of medial beauty imaginations. Maya Brush represents all the global prefab-girls, the standardized and technically created beauties as propagated by advertising industry and media. As an artificial figure maya floats between the various on- and offline worlds. For the first time a virtual sculpture will be able to leave the museum and art institutions and dare the step into real life. The media public and the global communication networks may serve as her home as well as the museums to which she will always return with her experiences.
Since her birth [6] Renowned fashion photographers as Peter Lindberg and Karl Lagerfeld work with her as model.

Norbert Prangenberg was an abstract painter, sculptor, and engraver who was born in Nettseheim, just outside of Cologne, Germany. Though he had no formal training and did not fully engage with art until his 30s, Prangenberg did finally come up with a style that was uniquely his own, not fitting comfortably into the neo-expressionist or neo-geo movements of his time, in the 1970s and 1980s. At this time, he was considered a major figure in contemporary German art. Though he got his start with abstract paintings, he also became known for making sculptures of all sizes; and while his work initially appears abstract, the titles given sometimes allude to the human body or a landscape. As a trained gold- and silversmith, as well as a glassblower, he always showed an attention to materials and how they could be physically engaged with. He was interested in how his own two hands could affect the painting or sculpture's surface. Traces of the artist's hand appear literally throughout his entire oeuvre, before he lost the battle with liver cancer in 2012.
