Carl Roesch's pictures of women

O tomto místě

The cabinet exhibition was created in close collaboration with the artist Lexy Ottwald. She was invited to view the collection and select the works that intuitively appealed to her. It was her first encounter with the work of the well-known Thurgau painter. Remarkably, she was particularly interested in the fact that Carl Roesch very often depicted women wearing headscarves. This loose series of works began very early on, with the portrait of his grandmother - one of his very first paintings. In his later works, the headscarves become trapezoidal color accents. In the two exhibition rooms, the development from the realistic-expressive early work to the mature, almost abstract œuvre can be impressively observed.
