LECTURE 16
Garage Museum of Contemporary Art presents the next lecture in the series Dissymmetrical Similarities. Irina Kulik draws parallels between the two German artists and political satirists, George Grosz and Martin Kippenberger.
George Grosz (1893-1959) was the charismatic leader of the Berlin Dadaists, a master of political satire and caricature. In the 1920s, he created a series of paintings depicting the evils of urban life in Berlin. During the Weimar Republic, he was also associated with the artists of “New Objectivity,” known for their biting social criticism and often working in and Expressionist style. A Communist, Gross was personally acquainted with Lenin, but he was disappointed by the reality of Soviet Russia when he visited in 1922. Shortly before Hitler came to power he emigrated to America, where his work was regularly exhibited and he taught at many art schools.
A member of the German underground of 1970s and 80s, Martin Kippenberger (1953-1997) spent those years in Berlin and Cologne playing in a punk band and pursuing an eclectic artistic practice using a wide range of media, genres and styles. In his art and music Kippenberger openly criticized the political and social situation, calling for absolute creative freedom. He often used everyday objects or other people's works, replicas and originals, questioning their aesthetic value. In his later years he taught in Frankfurt and Kassel.

Обожаю лекции Кулик. Как жаль, что она не выходит за пределы 20-21 века. Из числа её героев мне нравятся только человек 8, но лектор мне нравится безумно.

Я не знаю, можно ли обвинять в мизантропии человека, который своими глазами видел, как Гитлер приходит к власти....
