About
New Walk Museum & Art Gallery are proud to present the first ARTIST ROOMS exhibition of the internationally renowned Georg Baselitz, perhaps Germany's most significant living artist.
This presentation offers a unique opportunity to view Baselitz's work alongside Leicester's internationally acclaimed German Expressionist collection, re-launched this autumn for this exhibition, accompanied by an extensive events programme.
The work on show spans three decades from the 1960s to the 1990s with major works providing a broad overview of the artist's oeuvre, including how he has been influenced by, and reacted against, Expressionism.
At the heart of this exhibition will be a major learning program helping us to explore the artist and respond to his work through digital media and performance.
