Starting with Hermann Glöckner, Willy Wolff and Herbert Kunze who worked nonrepresentational from the older generation, the exhibition “Schaudepot #7 Abstract Images” shows a cross section until the present. Artists like Manfred Luther, Sándor Dóró and Kerstin Franke-Gneuss accepted their heritage in the 1970s and 1980s. Examples from the 1990s mirror in the changed political circumstances the whole range of artistic expression. Objects are on display, such as Eberhard Göschel’s works that expressively focus on material, Bernd Hahn’s colour images that can be tied to the classical modern period and Wilhelm Müller’s works that were influenced by Glöckner. Exhibits of the display storeroom presentation span from works by Jakob Flohe, Jaqueline Merz and others to the young Saxon artist generation, who is represented with partly playful, partly conceptual positions of abstraction.
