Description
The book traces the eventful history of a show that took place 70 years ago and marked the international breakthrough for many of the participating artists: Peintures et sculptures non-figuratives en Allemagne d'aujourd'hui at the Cercle Volney, Paris. The private initiative of the Parisian gallery owner René Drouin and his German supporter, Wilhelm Wessel, was an experiment in cultural diplomacy between France and Germany in 1955. The concept was deliberately directed against the canonized view of art promoted by the Deutsche Kunstrat (German Art Council) and leading museum directors, and placed the representatives of the middle and young generations of Art Informel on an equal footing with the established old masters of abstraction. Look inside - With historical views of the exhibition and sources on the history - With works by Willi Baumeister, Rupprecht Geiger, K. O. Götz, Norbert Kricke, Brigitte Meier-Denninghoff, Marie-Louise von Rogister, Emil Schumacher, Fritz Winter and others - Exhibition, Emil-Schumacher-Museum Hagen, 04/13/2025 - 08/03/2025
