"German Painting after World War II" Opens |

BILBAO, SPAIN.- The Guggenheim Bilbao presents "German Painting after World War II", on view through May 18, 2002. Drawn from the Guggenheim collections, German Painting after World War II is a selection of works from the last third of the 20th century by four major German painters. The Expressionist figurations of Anselm Kiefer give us a broad view of his personal and paradoxical vision of German history. Georg Baselitz, one of the leading figures in new German painting, uses his gestural brushwork to shed light on his conflict with the world. Gerhard Richter is specially represented here by Seascape (Seestück, 1998), recently acquired by the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, which fuses painting and photography to question the ability of either to achieve pictorial illusion. Finally, without neglecting painting, Sigmar Polke plays with the techniques of mechanical graphic reproduction to achieve some surprising effects.
