Fremde M?chte - Foreign Powers: Malerei Aus Leipzig - Painting from Leipzig

By Julia Schmidt, Rosa Loy, Claudia Rößger, et al.

The publication for the intergenerational group exhibition--the birth years of the artists rank between 1958 and 1982--shows figurative painting Leipzig Style as well as the development of abstraction out of it. It is now known that Leipzig painting is not only male--however, it is often understood to be typically figurative. In Fremde M?chte - Malerei aus Leipzig, not only the female side is getting stronger; this further prejudice is also cleared up. In addition to well-known representatives of the figurative Leipzig Style such as Rosa Loy and Katrin Brause a.k.a. Heichel, the Museum Franz Gertsch also shows positions between object and abstraction and provides a platform for purely abstract forms, such as the works of Henriette Grahnert and Franziska Holstein.
