Oelze’s works capture his belief that the making of art was an act akin to clairvoyance; that the artist was like a blind man, incapable of seeing reality, but capable of prophesy; and that history would certainly confirm these prophecies, which were invariably of a sinister nature. Oelze evidenced an early artistic talent and, following brief military service in World War I, attended the School of Applied Arts in Magdeburg, Germany, where he had been born into an ascetic, middle-class family in 1900. Between 1921 and 1925, Oelze was a student at the Bauhaus in Weimar, where he studied with Walter Gropius, Johannes Itten, Oskar Schlemmer and, most probably, with Paul Klee. Around 1929, Oelze was exposed to the work being done by the Surrealist group in Paris, particularly that of Dalí, Ernst and Magritte, and this determined a course for his own work from which he did not waver for the remaining 50 years of his life.

  • Between Abstract and Figurative Art. Neo Rauch's Pictorial Style Before and After the Peaceful Revolution of 1989: a Question
    Between Abstract and Figurative Art. Neo Rauch’s Pictorial Style before and after the Peaceful Revolution of 1989: A Question of Authenticity? Frank Zöllner A phenomenon of contemporary art history that has received scant attention to date is the authentication and de-authentication by an artist of his own early work. The best-known case of the attempt by an artist to define his own oeuvre, and to bracket out works that are immature, of dubious quality or otherwise unwanted, is that of German star painter Gerhard Richter. With a few exceptions, Richter recognizes as authentic only those works that he produced from around 1962 onwards, i.e. the year after his flight from the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) to the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG).1 A similar de-authentication of parts of his early oeuvre can also be observed in the case of Neo Rauch, who may be counted as one of the most successful worldwide among the contemporary artists of his generation. Both this success and its genesis offer intriguing insights into the functioning of the market for contemporary art – while the marketing of older art naturally functions without these mechanisms of de-authentication. The career of the painter Neo Rauch, born in Leipzig in 1960, has unfolded across the most gripping chapters of the history of German art in the late twentieth century. For Rauch’s life and work have been divided between two art systems that could hardly be more different. When Rauch completed his training in the painting class at Leipzig’s Academy of Visual Arts, the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst (HGB), from 1981 to 1990, both Leipzig and the HGB were still part of the German Democratic Republic.

Neo Rauch on paper by Matthew James Holman • 10.05.2019 Somewhere between the detached nightmares of the late de Chirico, the provincial working-man vistas of Breughel, and the lurid cartoon-art of early Pop, Neo Rauch’s unique and instantly recognisable style is enigmatic. It is a style best known in paint, with its disconcerting atemporal landscapes that push and play with the conventions of planar perspective. Rauch draws us into unreal and mysterious theatre scenes that reference his life in East Germany and especially to those parts spent at work, at play or with family that can feel estranged despite, or perhaps because of, familiarity. Rauch’s drawings offer us an insight into both his process and his deviant, childlike imagination.

After graduating high school and becoming a skilled construction worker, in 1982 he began studying painting at the Academy of Visual Arts Leipzig (HGB) with Professor Bernhard Heisig. He received his diploma in 1987 and taught at the HGB from 1992 to 1997. A work stay took him to Cuba in 1999; that same year he was also a visiting professor at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. Aichinger participated in his first group exhibition in Duisburg in 1987, followed by numerous national and international solo exhibitions in Solothurn, Chemnitz, Madrid, Tokyo, Leipzig, New York, Frankfurt am Main, and Rouen. MAMMA ANDERSSON ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… The Swedish artist Mamma Andersson, born in February 1962, stems from Lulea, where she grew up near the Arctic Circle. She studied at the Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm from 1986 to 1993. The painter became known internationally when she was invited to participate in the Biennale de Venezia in 2003. She has since come to be one of the most important contemporary artists in Scandinavia. The first retrospective of her works took place in Stockholm in 2007; she has had further solo exhibitions in New York, London, Washington, D.C., Stockholm, Copenhagen, et al.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Exploring Saxony on the art trail London, February 2018. World-class museums, galleries, innovative arts spaces and art schools – Saxony has it all. “The Allure of Art – History, Museums, Workplaces”, a new, free brochure, for the first time collects everything worth knowing about the region’s unique art scene in one place. The brochure, published by the Tourism Board of Saxony, is a handy tool for discerning travellers, navigating them through the astounding wealth of museums, galleries and art spaces – including many outside the major cities Dresden and Leipzig – and enabling them to design their very own art trip. From anonymous Gothic masters to the New Leipzig School of contemporary times and including the Cranach family of painters, Canaletto, Caspar David Friedrich, the artists of the “Brücke” group, Otto Dix, Oskar Kokoschka or Georg Baselitz – the history of art in Saxony is not short of big names and internationally renowned artists who’ve lived, worked and left their traces in this region: Dresden’s splendid State Art Collections & beyond Dresden’s art institutions are characterised by the former royal treasures of the Dresden State Art Collections, displayed in altogether 15 museums, including the Old Masters Gallery with paintings by Vermeer, Rembrandt, Rubens or Titian, and New Masters Gallery, dedicated to works from 1800 to the present day. Apart from these visitor favourites, there’s lots more to explore, such as the hidden masterpieces of one of the world’s oldest and most important collections of works of art on paper in the Dresden Collection of Prints, Drawings and Photographs.
