Bilingual edition (English/German) Robert Mangold was together with Ellsworth Kelly and Robert Ryman one of those American artists who gave the painting in the sixties still future. After Jackson Pollock and Barnett Newman, this was an ambitious undertaking. Because it was about nothing less than "reinventing" the painting. What Robert Mangold is interested in is the wall as a painting, as it is known in cave paintings and through the fresco. The limitation of the painting on the surface understands Mangold as strength. His topic is the investigation of this surface in terms of shape, color and line. It fascinates him to explore the qualities that cause a screen to be charged with excitement. He assumes that all elements of a picture have the same importance in this context. The complete feature of his oeuvre is the molded canvas, the geometry of which tends to be disturbed. Rectangle, square and circle are sometimes imperceptible, distorted or cropped. He experienced the fragmentation of the gaze expressed in the New York high-rise canyons. In contrast, he associates curved outlines with experiences in the outdoors. For the Wiesbaden exhibition, a concept has been developed that focuses on Robert Mangold's creative process of the last 15 years. Shown are 70 paintings, drawings and sketches, of which u.a. the series of 18 studies for his Attic series can be seen for the first time in Europe. For the exhibition catalog, a catalog raisonné of all paintings created since 1982 has been compiled.
