Following the anniversary exhibition INSTALLATIONS FROM 25 YEARS OF THE FALCKENBERG COLLECTION (2019), which was dedicated to installations as the core medium of the Falckenberg Collection, the focus will shift to painting in 2025. In the exhibition HOW'S MY PAINTING?, the medium will be presented comprehensively for the first time with over 100 works from the Falckenberg Collection.
Starting with Werner Büttner, Albert Oehlen and Martin Kippenberger, who stirred up the established art scene of the 1980s with their punk-inspired attitude and, together with their American colleagues of the same age Raymond Pettibon and Mike Kelley, represent the concept of counter culture that has shaped the Falckenberg Collection, the exhibition spans an arc to all varieties of the medium, from panel painting to its installative, deconstructive and conceptual manifestations.
A large number of the works have not been shown in the collection for many years. In addition to the above-mentioned artists, Vito Acconci, Donald Baechler, John Baldessari, Kati Barath, Robert Barry, Monica Bonvicini, Nicole Eisenman, Urs Fischer, Günter Förg, Anna Gudjohnsdottir, Philip Guston, Hams Haacke, Michel Majerus, Jonathan Meese, Manule Ocampo, Joyce Pensato, Charlotte Posenenske, Daniel Richter, Kay Rosen, Peter Saul, Ena Swansea, Johannes Wohnseifer, Thomas Zipp and others are also represented.
