Exhibition video — Markus Lüpertz. About the art to the picture

In our exhibition film, curator Pamela Kort and Markus Lüpertz talk about the serial aspects of his work and the major exhibition at Haus der Kunst.

Markus Lüpertz (*1941) is one of the most highly acclaimed artists working in Germany today. His paintings have played a decisive role in the international art scene since the 1960s. The exhibition “Markus Lüpertz. Über die Kunst zum Bild” (“Toward the Image through Art”) sheds light for the first time on the meaning of the serial character of Lüpertz’s art. The more than 200 paintings and drawings reveal not only how deeply interconnected his oeuvre is, but just how much it is informed by a cinematic manner of looking at the world.
