For the first time, the Hamburger Kunsthalle is bringing together works by the Austrian artist Maria Lassnig (1919-2014) and the Norwegian painter Edvard Munch (1863-1944) in a major double exhibition. Although the two are separated by half a century, a closer look reveals astonishing parallels that make Munch's influence on Lassnig's oeuvre comprehensible and, conversely, allow new aspects of her predecessor's oeuvre to be discovered. In addition, the works presented by these two outstanding artists offer an intimate insight into the respective biographies of their creators and paint a multi-layered portrait of the period in which they were created. What they both have in common is not only their unique use of color as an element of design and expression, but there are also astonishing parallels in their lively brushwork and free experiments in painting technique.
