On the occasion of Imi Knoebel’s 75th birthday (b. 1940 in Dessau), the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg is organizing his first major retrospective. It is the first extensive exhibition anywhere in the world to deal with the work of this important artist in over 15 years.

The exhibition—which the artist is supporting with his own works and his wide-ranging archive—will feature central pieces and ensembles from the Linienbilder to recent works. The retrospective encompasses circa 100 installations, paintings, sculptures and wall pieces and pays tribute to the extraordinary part Knoebel has played in art from the latter half of the 20 century to the present day.

The show illustrates the consequential development of the artist’s oeuvre over the past nearly 50 years. As a part of this work process, Imi Knoebel’s current works will also be integrated into the exhibition.
