A graphic folder work from Kunstarchiv Beeskow

Exhibition, May 5th 2018 to end of October 2018

The new exhibition presented by Kunstarchiv Beeskow is dedicated to the graphic artist Dieter Tucholke (1934-2001) who intensively and critically addressed German history from an East German perspective. The focus is on his graphic sequence "Negativbilder" [negative images] about Prussian history that he created in 1980-81 and which is one of his most famous works.

The artist is focused on the weaknesses and vices of the Prussian kings, since he deeply distrusted their so-called virtues. With an imagery that still fascinates today, Tucholke assembled the portraits from symbols and objects, which are accompanied by short mocking texts.

Free admission.
