Summary note

"Created in the artist's studio north of Salzburg, this new series of paintings and ink drawings features eagles - a motif that has resurfaced in Georg Baselitz's oeuvre throughout his life. Depicted in tactile, multicoloured impasto, the eagles are rendered larger than life in gestural strokes, hovering in undefined spaces. Against varying backgrounds of blue, Baselitz uses spatulas rather than paint brushes to articulate the forms of the eagles, perched or in flight, producing marks that convey a sense of the vigour with which they were painted."
