Ways of Seeing Abstraction - Works from the Deutsche Bank Collection

About

Since the beginning of the twentieth century, non-representational art has been an essential means of expression for modernist ideas. The more than 100 paintings, drawings, and graphic works from the Deutsche Bank Collection on display show that even today abstraction is far more than just pure form. Many of the international artists that will be presented at the PalaisPopulaire use a reduced formal language to explore other forms and traditions transcending temporal, historical, and political boundaries, while questioning their own culture and perspective. Social discourses are also “transported” in this way and transformed in the truest sense.
