Exhibition expired
An exhibition project of the Kunstmuseum Moritzburg Halle (Saale) in co-operation with the Institut für Kulturstudien, Dresden
28 February 2021 marked the 100th anniversary of the birth of the artist and cultural politician Willi Sitte (1921–2013). He is one of the nationally and internationally renowned artists of the GDR and also the most controversial representative of the art of this state. The retrospective dealt with Sitte's complete body of work, which was created between the 1930s and 2005. For the first time since 1989/90 and without the influence of cultural politics, it provided a comprehensive overview of the development of the work of the most exposed representative of the official art and cultural system of the GDR.
