Georg Baselitz: Paintings 1964–1967 presents a focused survey of a pivotal period in the artist's career, chronicling the raw, confrontational works produced during a time when Baselitz was actively dismantling the conventions of figurative painting — upending both his subjects and the expectations of the European art world with equal ferocity.\n\nThis catalogue, produced in conjunction with London's celebrated Anthony d'Offay Gallery, documents the so-called Hero paintings and related works, in which Baselitz conjured ragged, monumental figures that seemed to rise — or fall — from the ruins of a fractured cultural identity. His visceral brushwork, charged with psychological tension and historical weight, positions him as a direct heir to German Expressionism while simultaneously announcing something entirely new. For collectors, scholars, and admirers of postwar European art, this volume raises an unavoidable question: what does it mean to paint the human figure when history itself has rendered that figure broken?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49269339324635,"sku":"2026200014916-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/19738f6f-5844-4af8-b05c-0c80e6bfa911.png?v=1788998547","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014916-secondhand-georg-baselitz-paintings-1964-1967","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
