Director of Franz Marc Museum in Kochel am See
WHAT PROJECT ARE YOU WORKING ON AT THE MOMENT?
I am preparing an exhibition for the Franz Marc Museum about self-portraits oft the artists of German Expressionism – a show about the self-fashioning of the artist in the first two decades of the 20th century.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE EPOCH/ART WORK?
It’s a difficult choice! But outside of the 20th century one of my favorite epochs is the Renaissance in Europe.
WHAT ARE YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT (BESIDES ART)?
I love literature, especially from the19th and 20th century, walking in nature, and going to the theatre.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT THE HIGHLIGHTS IN MUNICH?
I like this format very much: high quality art works presented in a beautiful space in the heart of the city!
CURATOR’S CHOICE – WHAT ARE YOUR TOP 3 HIGHLIGHTS OF THE HIGHLIGHTS 2020?
Beginning with the Renaissance, I admire the collector’s cabinet with various artworks up to the 17th century from Kunstkammer Georg Laue. Another favourite, as I am very fond of this period, are Franz von Stuck’s Lovers at the edge of the woods from 1892 offered by Kunkel Fine Art. A piece from the 20th century I love is the work on paper by Gotthard Graubner from 1996/99 from Beck & Eggeling.
