    Emotion. Young British and American Art from Sammlung Goetz

    –

    The exhibition Emotion presents characteristic works by 18 artists from the current art scene in Great Britain and the United States.

     

    With Matthew Barney, Angela Bulloch, Willie Doherty, Tracey Emin, Robert Gober, Douglas Gordon, Mona Hatoum, Mike Kelley, Abigail Lane, Louise Lawler, Sherrie Levine, Sarah Lucas, Cady Noland, Tony Oursler, Richard Prince, Sam Taylor-Wood, Rachel Whiteread and Andrea Zittel.

    In the 1990s, a vital new art scene developed in London. Socio-political issues, sexuality and identity were dealt with in an emotional, rude and carefree manner. Similar to young American art, the roots of this lay in Pop and Concept Art. Its proximity to pop music, contemporary film and new media, however, was striking. The exhibition Emotion establishes a dialogue between these Anglo-Saxon art scenes with works in the Sammlung Goetz.

    Approximately 160 works by nine British and nine American artists are on display. The show featured films, video and audio works as well as large-scale installations, sculptures and photographs. Due to two large exhibitions in Hamburg with Cindy Sherman and Jeff Wall, this exhibition does not include these artists although they are represented extensively in the Sammlung Goetz. The exhibition does not wish to emphasize national criteria, but point out the individual accomplishments of the individual artistic personalities.

    Gutai. Collection + Goetz

    – | Pinakothek der Moderne | Sammlung Moderne Kunst (Modern Art Collection)

    Since 2019, in the context of the Sammlung+ format, the Sammlung Moderne Kunst has presented artistic discoveries, new acquisitions and thematic foci in the Pinakothek der Moderne in collaboration with partners and foundations. This has led to the emergence of new perspectives on the collections, new insights into research work and the establishment of new dialogues. It is in this framework that a selection of paintings by the Japanese artist group Gutai from the Sammlung Goetz will be presented in room 23, within a series of rooms focusing on near-contemporaneous regional and German abstraction phenomena under the title “Walk the Line.”  Founded in 1954 by the abstract painter Jiro Yoshihara, Gutai was one of the 20th century’s most innovative artistic movements, which combined action, abstraction and materiality.
