Moritz Götze is awarded the prize of the Hallescher Kunstverein

Moritz Götze is awarded the prize of the Hallescher Kunstverein

The exhibition shows a lesser-known area of ​​Moritz Götze's work: graphic portfolios, illustrations and books. In this specific area of ​​work, Götze proves himself to be a master storyteller with an independent visual language. This includes graphic portfolios from the 1980s and 1990s such as "James Bond 007" (1989), "The Prince's Abduction" (1992) and "Tristan and Isolde" (1993/94) as well as artist books such as "Gulliver" (1996) and illustrations such as for Manfred Krug's 1999 volume of poetry ("66 poems - what's the point"). Cover designs for magazines and records will also be presented.Jens-Fietje Dwars on the award winner: "This is Moritz Götze's art of uniting opposites: past and present, closeness and distance, sensuality and abstraction, dream and reality, art and life - and all of this in the medium of painting that is both modern and timeless. It has wit, freshness and a rare esprit in the German art world." (2024)

WEST END BAG END - THITZ

WEST END BAG END - THITZ

Artist’s Reception 
 
We cordially invite you and your friends to the reception with Thitz on Thursday, 28 November at 6 pm in our new Frankfurt gallery.
 
What does depict civilizations better than their shopping bags? Thitz collages bags from all over the world on canvas and repaints them with carefree and dense scenes. Ever new layers of paint and overdrawings in acrylic and ink create an associative network. The colors begin to glow, future, past and present merge, thousands of figures populate facades, seas of houses, water surfaces and even the sky.
 
Shopping bags are both a reflection of our culture and a cultural artifact. Thitz recycles them in his conceptual pop art works. Shopping bags may soon no longer exist. That is the way of things. This gives Thitz's paintings a new dimension: in addition to their autonomous value as coveted art objects, they also acquire the aura of irretrievable contemporary testimonies.

Manuela Sambo at the MMK Museum for Modern Art Frankfurt

Manuela Sambo at the MMK Museum for Modern Art Frankfurt

Early works by Manuela Sambo can currently be seen in the exhibition “There is no there there” at the Museum of Modern Art in Frankfurt.
The museum has purchased all of the works - we warmly congratulate the artist!

Manuela Sambo was born in Luanda (Angola). As a child, she was surrounded almost exclusively by African art. In the 1980s she studied German and literary studies in Leipzig. Through her future husband, the painter Daniel Sambo-Richter, she came into contact with East German underground art. Their neo-expressive language was often based on African and non-European motifs and was open to the magical rituals of early cultures.

While she was still studying, Manuela Sambo created her first works of art, initially smaller masks. After receiving her diploma, she devoted herself entirely to fine art. She created sculptures, works on paper and her first paintings. The artist was fascinated by figures of the Virgin Mary and was interested in European art history.
