DIETER KRIEG. Fritten und Brillanten

Flower pots and crosses, fries and diamonds—in his large-format paintings Dieter Krieg (1937–2005) never differentiated between the significant things in life and the everyday
ones. In over-sized enlargement, Krieg also uses painterly media to wrest the emotion of experienced life from the banal, leaving room for tragedy and comedy, for bodily pleasure and aesthetic sharpness—even for fries and diamonds. Beginning in the sixties, the Lindau-native was one of the most prominent representatives of the so-called New Figuration. In 1978, he exhibited with Ullrich Rückriem in the German Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. The Kunstmuseum Stuttgart dedicates this first retrospective of Krieg’s oeuvre to the recently deceased painter and professor at the
Düsseldorf Academy.
