Ausstellung "The Simple Things. Minimalism and more"

The Simple Things. Minimalism and more...

Aug 30 – Oct 26, 2024

Gallery Ludorff Königsallee 22 Dusseldorf

It is our pleasure to invite you to the opening of our new exhibition "The Simple Things. Minimalism and more..." on August 29th, from 7 PM to 9 PM.

The exhibition offers a unique opportunity to experience the works of significant artists of minimalism and beyond. Featured artists include Josef Albers, known for his pioneering work in color field painting, and Imi Knoebel, whose geometric forms explore the boundaries of space and color. Additionally, the exhibition showcases works by Karin Kneffel, Alex Katz, Rupprecht Geiger, and Konrad Klapheck, each of whom reinterprets and expands minimalism with their unique styles and approaches. Further works by artists from our program invite the visitors to make new discovieries.

We warmly invite you to attend the opening and engage in dialogue with the artworks and the team of LUDORFF gallery. As you discover the depth behind the simplicity, we hope you will be inspired by the clarity and beauty of minimalist art.
