A Cen­ten­nial Ex­hi­bi­tion

Ber­nard Schultze (1915–2005) was a lead­ing ex­po­nent of ges­tu­ral ab­s­tract paint­ing and an enor­mous­ly pro­lif­ic artist, even in old age.

He cre­at­ed rich­ly de­tailed, bril­liant­ly col­ored paint­in­gs, draw­in­gs, and re­liefs that even­tu­al­ly grew in­to three-di­men­sio­n­al col­ored sculp­tures made from wire, tex­tiles, and plas­tic. The Mu­se­um Lud­wig, which hous­es a large part of Schultze’s ar­tis­tic es­tate, is pay­ing ho­mage to him on the cen­te­nary of his birth.
