Our booth is dedicated to two very special and important artists:
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner (1880-1938) and Georg Baselitz (*1938).

Both artists influenced and continue to influence entire generations of artists in their œuvre. Whereas their artistic expression was created separately from one another, and prepared the way for an art that was colourful, provocative, and consistently rebelled against the traditional and developed new modes of expression.

The motifs of the two seem to overlap: the human being in the focus of the creative work. However, while in Kirchner's work nature occupies an almost equal position, Baselitz's motifs are mostly created by destroying existing images. The artist does not even stop at his own images, as the series "Remix" shows (please see images below), in which he revisits past motifs from his œuvre and turns them into a kind of representation of an interaction with his own past.

In our booth 307 at Masterpiece London you may discover this dialogue in paintings, drawings and graphic works.
