ARTISTS
Full House
From July 15, 2022, the MKM鈥檚 motto will be: collection 鈥淔ULL HOUSE鈥�. For in its summer exhibition, the Museum K眉ppersm眉hle is presenting further artists from the Str枚her Collection in addition to the permanent collection presentation, thus drawing on a diverse spectrum of artistic productions from the 1960s to the present day. On view are photographs by Thomas Florschuetz, Candida H枚fer, and Katharina Sieverding, knitting and hearth pictures by Rosemarie Trockel, paintings by Rolf-Gunter Dienst, J枚rg Immendorff, and Rissa, and an installation by sculptor Stephan Balkenhol.
Dienst鈥檚 painting is quietly intellectual, Rissa鈥檚 is powerful and geometric, Immendorff鈥檚 is energetic and full of reminiscences of art history. Civilization, architecture, and nature are themes of the photographic works by H枚fer, Florschuetz, and Sieverding, while Balkenhol鈥檚 figures and Trockel鈥檚 wall works approach man and his social environment in different ways. The path through the rooms opens up surprising perspectives, angles and lines of sight between the works, allowing visitors to experience art in a new way.
Complementing the collection鈥檚 permanent exhibition focusing on informal and abstract postwar artists, the FULL HOUSE exhibition takes a look at the generation that followed. All of the artists presented have in common that they have maintained and further developed their significance for art history to this day:
鈥淔rom today鈥檚 perspective, the diversity of the art scene, especially from the 1970s to the 1990s, would be inconceivable without the distinctive signature of the artist:s exhibited here. With FULL HOUSE, we provide insight into the Str枚her Collection 鈥� throughout the MKM 鈥� and thus also into the iconography of German art after 1945 with an unalterable status,鈥� says MKM Director Walter Smerling.
