Summary:
Markus Lüpertz (*1941) is one of the most highly acclaimed artists working in Germany today. His paintings have played a decisive role in the international art scene since the 1960s. The exhibition ... sheds light for the first time on the meaning of the serial character of Lüpertz's art. The more than 200 paintings and drawings, many of them from collections worlwide, reveal not only how deeply interconnected his oeuvre is, but just how much it is informed by a cinematic manner of looking at the world. The result is a completely fresh look at Lüpertz's artistic oeuvre, which also demonstrates just how much his work is devoted to revitalizing the age-old medium of painting. --Museum website.
