German-English edition
Jörg Immendorff’s Café Deutschland, Georg Baselitz’s Remix paintings, or Joseph Beuys’ protest signs—the Viehof Collection is one of the most important private collections in Germany, focusing on German art from the post-war period to the present day. It brings together works by Gerhard Richter and Sigmar Polke, who stand for the audacious, socially critical art of the 1960s, through to the 1980s, marked by artists such as Albert Oehlen and Katharina Sieverding, and extending to 21st-century abstract art, represented by Corinne Wasmuht and Katharina Grosse.
Based on works in the Viehof Collection, the exhibition's accompanying publication presents 24 pioneering positions in German art. Striking contrasts emerge—such as Jörg Immendorff’s expansive formats compared to Joseph Beuys’ conceptual works, or the distinct artistic approaches of Anne Imhof, Katharina Fritsch, and Nairy Baghramian. This overview provides compelling evidence that individual artistic style has long since surpassed any notion of a national school of art.
Jörg Immendorffs Café Deutschland, Georg Baselitz' Remix-Bilder oder Joseph Beuys' Protestschilder: Die Sammlung Viehof ist eine der bedeutendsten Privatsammlungen Deutschlands mit dem Schwerpunkt auf deutscher Kunst von der Nachkriegszeit bis heute. Sie vereint Werke von Gerhard Richter und Sigmar Polke, die für die „freche", sozialkritische Kunst der 1960er-Jahre stehen, über die 1980er, die von Albert Oehlen oder Katharina Sieverding geprägt werden, bis zum Feld abstrakter Kunst des 21. Jahrhunderts, das mit Werken von Corinne Wasmuht und Katharina Grosse vertreten ist.
Anhand von Werken der Sammlung Viehof präsentiert der Begleitband zur Ausstellung 24 wegweisende Positionen deutscher Kunst. Dabei zeigen sich Gegensätze wie etwa Jörg Immendorffs ausladende Großformate gegenüber den konzeptuellen Arbeiten von Joseph Beuys oder die Arbeiten Anne Imhofs, Katharina Fritschs oder Nairy Baghramians, die einen wiederum völlig anderen künstlerischen Ansatz vertreten. Im Überblick zeigt sich eindrucksvoll, dass der Individualstil längst das Prinzip der Schule einer nationalen Kunst verdrängt hat.
