En savoir plus sur le livre
The first major exhibition catalogue dedicated to the artist since his passing in 2007 offers a thematic overview of his work, deeply rooted in Germany's history and shaped by a post-war context. Featuring over 120 works, the presentation does not adhere to a strict chronology but instead highlights key elements in the evolution of the artist's oeuvre through thematic chapters. This approach provides a nuanced perspective on his life and art, showcasing rare loans and iconic pieces from more than four decades of his career. In the late 1970s, the artist shifted his focus from being a political activist, teacher, and painter to fully embracing art. A pivotal moment came in 1976 when he participated in the Venice Biennale, launching a flyer campaign that criticized the deprivation of personal liberty in East Germany and advocated for international artistic collaboration. This was followed by the Café Deutschland series, inspired by Renato Guttuso, which marked a turning point in his work. His painting became more expressive, characterized by bold colors and gestures, moving away from ideologically charged symbols. This transformation culminated in his final phase, which he described as a “liberation blow,” resulting in a new pictorial energy and lightness.
