Norbert Tadeusz

This Collector´s Edition of hand-colored etchings (edition of 30 + 5 AP) each one signed and numbered by the artist. The edition comes with the book Dunkle Begleiter (Dark companion ). Norbert Tadeusz (1940-2011) was one of the most important figurative post-war painters in Germany. In the 1960s—in clear opposition to Gerhard Hoehme and Joseph Beuys at the Düsseldorf Kunstakademie—he worked on a new approach to figurative painting that ultimately exercised considerable influence over the New Figuration of the 1980s. The artist’s hand-colored etchings feature Tadeusz’s typically complex composition and overwhelmingly powerful colors.
