    K E W E N I G Sean Scully “Four Days” 4 September to 7 November 2015 Opening on 4 September from 6 to 9 pm; the artist will be present. Opening hours: Monday to Saturday from 10 am to 6 pm “Four Days” is the first solo exhibition of the internationally acclaimed artist Sean Scully (b. in Dublin in 1945) at Kewenig in Berlin. New oil paintings by the Irish-American artist will be on view, as well as a selection of works on paper and one sculpture. Among the pieces executed especially for Berlin is the four-part painting Four Days after which the exhibition was named, Landline Blue, and an impressive triptych titled Arles-Abend-Vincent 2 – all works dating from 2015. Sean Scully is one of the most prominent contemporary exponents of abstract painting. He stands for an absolute, non-figurative style decisively distinguished by color. Pictorial compositions consisting of grid-like blocks or beam-like stripes are characteristic of his œuvre, as is the haptic quality resulting from the forceful brushstroke and impasto application of the paint and accounting for the works’ strong physical presence. Rather than simple canvas, the artist prefers to paint on higher-quality materials such as linen or aluminum, which lend the surfaces greater suppleness and heighten the radiance of the colors. Assembled from squares, rectangles and stripes, Scully’s motifs are based on basic geometric elements that are brought to life, however, by intense emotional impetus and the energy-charged painting manner. In their rectilinear structure and abstraction, his compositions thus exhibit not only conceptual stringency and order but also a high degree of emotionality.

Masterworks from Munich: Sixteenth- to Eighteenth- Century Paintings from the Alte Pinakothek is the first major showing in this country of works of art from the renowned Bavarian art museum. Masterworks from Munich highlights examples of all the major schools of baroque painting within the wider context of the style's 16th-century antecedents and 18th-century evolution into the rococo.

Carter Brown, director of the National Gallery. "The Alte Pinakothek has been extremely generous in offering works by old masters from its collection illustrating its wealth of northern and southern baroque painting. The quality level is superb. The American public is in for a rare treat." The collection was started by members of the ruling Wittelsbach family, Duke Wilhelm IV of Bavaria (ruled 1508-1550) and his wife Jacobaea of Baden, and augmented by subsequent family members, including Maximilian I (ruled 1597-1651), a passionate collector of Durers, and Max Emanuel (ruled 1679-1726).

  • 10 Years Museum Brandhorst
    PROGRAM 10 Years OCT–DEC 2019 Museum Brandhorst Brand New? 10 Years Museum Brandhorst As a museum for contemporary art we aspire to constantly seek out fresh, current and relevant work, to know what is “brand new” – just as it says on Ed Ruscha’s famous triangular painting from 2016, which we are currently showing on the stair- way to the lower floor. Therefore the second issue of our magazine series on the anniversary exhibition “Forever Young – 10 Years Museum Brandhorst” is focused on the present. It is against the present that we continuously measure our work. It keeps us alert, opens our eyes, and as a result the collection changes constantly (p. 2). In the last ten years it has grown by around 500 works. These new acquisitions include, for example, paintings by Monika Baer, who explains in an interview (p. 34) how it was and still is to prevail in the male-dominated field of painting. To give an impression of the diversity of these recent additions to the collection, our exhibition also Jens Hartmann Photo: changes at regular intervals: From mid-September we are showing newly-acquired pieces by R.H. Quaytman (p. 16) and Michael Krebber (p. 18) in Achim Hochdörfer the “Spot On” rooms on the ground floor, and from Director Museum Brandhorst November we will present the recently acquired video installation “Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore (20 Year Anniversary Remaster)” (1999–2019) by Mark Leckey (p. 20) in the media rooms on the lower floor. A legendary piece – twice as old as the museum – which invites us to celebrate a homage to the British club culture to this day.

    MUNICH MOZART´S STAY The life and work of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is closely connected to Munich, a centre of the German music patronage. Two of his most famous works Mozart composed in the residence city of Munich: On the 13th January, 1775 the premiere from „La finta giardinera “took place, on the 29th January, 1781 the opera "Idomeneo" was launched at Cuvilliés Theater. Already during his first trip at the age of six years Wolfgang played together with his sister Nannerl for Elector Maximilian Joseph III. The second visit followed a year later, in June, 1763. From Munich the Mozart family started to their three year European journey to Paris and London. On the way back from this triumphal journey they stopped in Munich again and Mozart gave concerts at the Emperors court. Main focus of the next trip to Munich (1774 – in 1775) was the premiere of the opera "La finta giardiniera" at the Salvatortheater. In 1777 when Wolfgang and his mother were on the way to Paris Munich was destination again and they stayed 14 days in the Isar city. Unfortunately, at that time Wolfgang aspired in vain to and permanent employment. Idomeneo, an opera which Mozart had composed by order of Elector Karl Theodor, was performed in Munich for the first time at the glamorous rococo theatre in the Munich palace, the Cuvilliés Theater. With pleasure he would have remained in Munich, however, there was, unfortunately, none „vacatur “for him again. In 1790 Mozart came for the last time to Munich on his trip to the coronation of Leopold II in Frankfurt.

Its elongated volume extends like a colorful sphinx along Türkenstrasse, its towering head greeting visitors who arrive from Schwabing and Maxvorstadt. The façade, with its 36,000 ce- ramic rods, inspired by the colors of nearby buildings, thereby enters into lively communication with its surroundings. When we walk around the building, every step opens up a new play of colors and perspectives, yet Sauerbruch Hutton’s architecture also radiates formal clarity and independence. In this respect, the paradox which affects every museum of contemporary art already becomes evident outwardly. For the role of the Museum Brandhorst has been formulated by Armin Zweite as a place where “historicizing the present”: here, the public is presented with current artistic achievements that are expected to appear relevant from a future retrospective position.1 The collecting of contemporary art, then, is not a passive, purely documentary activity, but instead inter- venes directly into cultural production.
