Yes to All

Kupferstichkabinett

“Yes to All” – “Yes, we’ll take everything,” was the enthusiastic and grateful response of the Kupferstichkabinett (Museum of Prints and Drawings) and the Graphische Gesellschaft zu Berlin –  Freunde des Kupferstichkabinetts during the last two years in accepting generous gifts made by the two former Cologne gallerists, Paul Maenz and Gerd de Vries. These gifts comprise around 900 works on paper, ranging from the 1960s to the present day. The two donors’ civic engagement is now being honoured with the exhibition Yes to All. It encompasses a selection of 200 works, with Conceptual Art, Arte Povera, Italian Transavantguardia and the art of the Young Wilds being represented in the form of drawings, sketches, print portfolios, collages, posters, letters and postcards. The show brings together works by Saâdane Afif, Robert Barry, Monica Bonvicini, Sandro Chia, Enzo Cucchi, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Walter Dahn, Hanne Darboven, Jiří Georg Dokoupil, Hans Haacke, Anselm Kiefer, Giulio Paolini, Bruce Nauman, Thomas Schütte and many others.
