This catalogue presents over 800 artworks from the collection of
Germany's most internationally renowned art dealer, Michael Werner,
part of which belong to his donation to the Musee dart moderne de
la Ville de Paris. This is a collection that stands out for its
commitment to trends defying accepted art canons and, especially,
to the work of the painter-sculptor ranging freely and impartially
through the fields of painting, sculpture and drawing. Rather than
focusing on avant-garde movements, the exhibition takes an
idiosyncratic look at the art of the 20th century and offers a
novel reading of the modern and the contemporary. Thirty-nine
artists are represented in twenty chapters, where they are
juxtaposed with quotations by contemporary critics. Texts by Pierre
Rosenberg, Eric Darragon and Fabrice Hergott focus on the
collector, while essays by Pamela Kort, Wolfgang Kersten and Ulrich
Leben explore the historical context of the collection. The
appendix lists the works in the collection, all the Michael Werner
Gallery shows from 1963, and a bibliography of its numerous
publications.
