Synopsis

With a Probability of Being Seen. Dorothee and Konrad Fischer: Archives of an Attitude focuses primarily on the personality of Konrad Fischer - as a painter, as an exhibition maker and as a gallery owner. The influence of this key figure in the development of contemporary art from the 1960s to the 1990s is presented in the exhibition in three ways: through his own works, through archived documents and through the works of his artists, which he collected together with his wife Dorothee. Numerous documents and photographs, shown in public for the first time, convey a richly faceted picture of Konrad Fischer's activities and a captivating panorama of this great period of contemporary art in the Rhineland. This collection, too, testifies to the consistent attitude that characterised Konrad Fischer, an attitude that cannot be readily explained or quantified in material terms.
