Georg BaselitzPeintre – Graveur III & IV

Volumes III and IV now available together! – 2023 was a gratifying year for Georg Baselitz, with widely noted exhibitions all over the world, in particular the show at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, where his works were able to shine in dialogue with excellent and famous Old Masters. In April 2024 we now present the long-awaited volume IV of the catalogue raisonné of the prints, “Peintre-Graveur IV”. The after-effects of the coronavirus pandemic repeatedly delayed the completion of the work. Particularly impressive in this volume are the variants of the woodcut “32 Punkte” of 1991 (no. 861), of which we reproduce the complete series full-page. Volumes III (1983–1989) and IV (1989–1992), now both available, with the works for “Malelade” (nos. 584–717 of 1989), the large-format series “32 Punkte” of 1991 (no. 861 in 6 states with 17 printing variants), the small series “Winter” (1992), which accompanies a poem by Joseph Brodsky, as well as studies and final works for the “Große Bertelsmann Lexikothek” (nos. 931–999 of 1992), document an exceptionally productive decade in the artist’s career.
