Catalogue Note
“The hierarchy which has located the sky at the top and the earth at the bottom is, in any case, only a convention. We have got used to it, but we don’t have to believe in it. The only thing that interests me is the question of how I can carry on painting pictures.” Georg Baselitz (Exh. Cat., Guggenheim Museum, Georg Baselitz, New York, 1995, p. 72)
