Richard Lindner

After his earlier career as an illustrator and advertising graphic designer, Richard Lindner (1901–1978) became one of the most significant pioneers of Pop Art with his irreplaceable language of forms. He succeeded in a unique way in uniting the grotesquely caricature elements of New Objectivity with the intense colour and collage-like flatness of Pop Art, and resonating between the cultural worlds of Europe and North America. Featuring works on paper over many years, this catalogue presents a comprehensive insight into the graphic oeuvre of the artist.
