This year on July 24 Alex Katz is celebrating his 90th Birthday – remarkably active.
Being considered as a classical exponent of the American figurative art, besides Andy Warhol, Katz can be seen as the originator of the “cool” painting. He developed an own style that is known across the globe. Katz’s works are included in nearly every renowned museum collection. Our gallery has been representing his oeuvre with regular exhibitions in Germany since the late 80ies.
We pay him homage with a big exhibition at both galleries showing numerous of his large-scale oil paintings, oil studies and drawings.

About the artist
Alex Katz is considered the most important figurative painter of our time. His large-scale portraits are characterised by their bold and representational manner, a style he evolved during the 50s amidst the height of Abstract Expressionism.
