THADDAEUS ROPAC

Georg Baselitz: La Boussole Indique le Nord

Edited by Arne Ehmann, Oona Doyle, Patricia Schmiedlechner. Text by Philippe Dagen.

Recent material experimentations from an acclaimed master of Neo-Expressionist figurative painting

Published to accompany his 2023 exhibition at Thaddaeus Ropac Paris, this stunning clothbound catalog gathers five recent series of paintings by the acclaimed German artist Georg Baselitz (born 1938), best known for his Neo-Expressionist works that were hugely influential in redefining 20th-century figurative art. Realized between 2020 and 2021, the paintings are characterized by the artist’s novel use of materials, including a new transfer method as well as the unprecedented integration of fabric into his works, both marking significant developments in Baselitz’s technique. Building upon his legacy as an iconic and pioneering figure in early Neo-Expressionism, these new works create, both conceptually and materially, a distinctive universe where the logic of collage coalesces with painting. The inventive and materially rich works on canvas are accompanied by a group of ink drawings.
