Georg Baselitz / Albert Oehlen

More about the book

On view are 12 large-scale paintings, mostly created for the Kunstverein, six by Georg Baselitz and six by Albert Oehlen. The exhibition offers the unique opportunity to experience the visual exchange between two artistic personalities and to participate in their cross-generational contest, examination, and unrelenting renewal of painting. The catalogue accompanying the exhibition includes an extensive and intimate conversation in which Georg Baselitz and Albert Oehlen discuss their beginnings, freedom and solitude, the possibility of painting amidst past and present as well as their individual positions and unexpected similarities. The book is published by Harune Verlag and edited by Christian Malycha. 00Exhibition: Kunstverein Reutlingen, Germany (25.09.2016 - 15.01.2017).
