Mechanik und Menschlichkeit. Eva Aeppli und Jean Tinguely
In the organizer's words:
The Lehmbruck Museum is presenting a comprehensive retrospective that brings together the works of two pioneers of 20th century art. Lehmbruck Prize winner Jean Tinguely (*1925 Freiburg i. Ü.; † 1991 Bern), known for his kinetic sculptures and his innovative use of found materials, meets Eva Aeppli (*1925 Zofingen; † 2015 Honfleur), an artist who is able to capture a touching humanity with her hand-sewn figures. The exhibition focuses on the relationship between man and machine, which both artists have shaped in a playful yet critical way. It provides a comprehensive insight into the pair's artistic development: from Tinguely's moving reliefs to Aeppli's still figure groups and their late joint work, which poetically combines the two artists' worlds of ideas.
The exhibition is sponsored by the Landschaftsverband Rheinland (LVR), the Kulturstiftung der Länder, the Ernst von Siemens Kunststiftung, Duisburger Akzenten and the City of Duisburg.
