The exhibition is the first comprehensive retrospective of Immendorff in Düsseldorf.
Its around 120 exhibits include large-format painting series, wood and bronze sculpture, previously unseen drawings and archival material.
The presentation examines Immendorff’s persistent questioning of the artist’s role in society.
Immendorff studied, taught and worked in Düsseldorf for decades.
By the end of the 20th century, he was celebrated internationally as one of the most significant German artists of his generation.
