For the first time, Vito Schnabel Gallery in St. Moritz presents a German artist – Markus Lüpertz – in a small but sophisticated solo exhibition.
Intensely moving paintings from the late 1980s and early 1990s, and newer works, provide a good impression of Markus Lüpertz’s diverse oeuvre. They can now be viewed by appointment following the break mandated by the Coronavirus-situation.
Markus Lüpertz, born 1941, is regarded as one of the most important German contemporary artists. His oeuvre is mainly associated with Neo-Expressionism and is comprised of paintings, drawings and sculptures. He also writes poetry and is a dedicated Free Jazz piano player.
