Born in 1938, German painter Georg Baselitz was among the tiny galaxy of Neo-Expressionist German artists in the Seventies, sometimes known as "Neue Wilden", who focused on deformation, the force of matter and the vibrancy of colours. His powerful, monumental creations are some of the most assertive and disturbing of the 20th century. About a hundred oils, drawing, prints and sculptures (mostly from the artist’s personal collection) are on view.
