Description: When Neo Rauch was a student of Arno Rink?s at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst in Leipzig, Germany was still a divided country. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, his large, cryptic paintings conquered the art world by storm and Rauch became a trailblazer for the New Leipzig School, as well as its most famous representative. His paintings added elements of Pop Art, comics, and advertising graphics to figural painting. Neo Rauch: Dromos, Painting 1993?2017 is a survey of Rauch?s multifaceted work. It begins with his first solo show in 1993 at the renowned Galerie Eigen + Art in Leipzig and traces in detail the developments in his oeuvre up to the present day, using paintings from prominent international collections as examples. Accompanying essays by well-known curators and art historians provide fundamental insights into Rauch?s complex body of work.00Exhibition: Museum de Fundatie, Zwolle, The Netherlands (21.01.-03.06.2018).
