“Alfred Hrdlicka / Fritz Martinz” / Neue Galerie Graz

Alfred Hrdlicka, „Orpheus II“ (Detail), 1963 / Fritz Martinz, „Läuferbild“ (Detail), 1968

05.10.2018 – 06.01.2019; Graz.
Realists of the postwar period. Two artists braced themselves against to the fantastic and abstract zeitgeist.

Anti-fascism in sculpture and graphic work: Alfred Hrdlicka and Fritz Martinz were never avoiding confrontation with their works. They belong to the generation of those post-war artists who plainly depicted the conditions of their time without trying to whitewash the facts. Powerful and with a tremendous gesture. Two artists whom we bitterly miss today.
