About
A.R. Penck has invented a colorful pictorial language expressing the rhythm of a constant back and forth between primitivism and ?art brut?, between painting and graffitism of which he is one of the fathers along with Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. His language aims to be the language of this humanity that he is trying to portray, by using calligraphic elements, through themes such as human alterity, the relationship to the animal or cosmic world or a dialogue between catastrophe and the jubilation of dance. All human history moves towards this creation of rhythmic spaces where living becomes possible. The exhibition attempts to explain this idea of A.R. Penck who, through painting, sculpture and drawing, shows the adventure of an artist who perceives his work as "the promise of space," a space to discover, to explore, to inhabit.00Exhibition: Fondation Maeght, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France (18.03.-18.06.2017).
