Georg Baselitz's various creative phases are exemplified by 31 of his masterpieces that are held within the Bavarian State Painting Collections. The volume analyses for the first time these important paintings and sculptures within the context of the history of the collection, which has been shaped not only by the artist's outstanding supporters and collectors, including Duke Franz von Bayern, but also by the passionate commitment of the directors and curators of the museum. In 1972, when Tern became the first work by Georg Baselitz to enter the Bavarian State Painting Collections, a first step was made towards building an epochal collection of the artist's paintings and sculptures. Today, 47 years later, the museum is dedicating the present extensive publication to this main focus within its holdings, which has been built up over the past decades. It spotlights one of the pinnacles of its collection of art after 1945, whose outstanding profile in the international museum landscape is also characterised by unique holdings of works by Joseph Beuys, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, Anselm Kiefer, Sigmar Polke, Arnulf Rainer and Fred Sandback.

Georg Baselitz est célèbre pour ses tableaux dont toutes les figures sont représentées la tête en bas ! Né en 1938 en République démocratique allemande, venu vivre à Berlin à l’âge de vingt ans, il y fera scandale lors de sa première exposition avec des tableaux saisis par la police. Mais, dès les années 1980, son oeuvre est considérée comme majeure parmi celles qui auront contribuè au renouveau de la peinture. C’est précisément en 1980 que l’artiste représente officiellement l’Allemagne à la Biennale de Venise. Le public découvre à cette occasion qu’il est aussi un maître de la sculpture. Basetilz est également un grand graveur et, au fil des ses interviews, on découvrira en lui l’érudit, le passionné d’art africain, le grand connaisseur d’art populaire, et l’homme libre qui porte sur son époque un regard sans concession.
