Immer diese Sehnsucht. T. Lux Feininger – Moderne Romantik
In the organizer's words:
In 1931, a critic wrote enthusiastically about the first museum exhibition of the then 20-year-old Dessau Bauhaus graduate T. Lux in Erfurt, calling it "romanticism without lard and saccharine". As a young draughtsman, he put motifs of the strange, the exotic, the bizarre, even the lonely, on paper in humorous sheets. A world, near and far at the same time, with figures that even today demand sympathy as vulnerable dreamers and courageous loners. The show can be reconstructed almost in its entirety and forms the core of the retrospective of the work of T. Lux Feininger (Berlin 1910-2011 Cambridge, Massachusetts) in Erfurt. It shows paintings, drawings and photographs from eight decades, excerpts from an oeuvre that was created against the backdrop of major social and personal challenges. The (physical and spiritual) commuting between the worlds (Europe/America), which characterized the Feininger family, also influenced T. Lux's world view.
