Quedlinburg (dpa/sa) – After a year of preparation, the Lyonel Feininger Gallery in Quedlinburg is showing works by Sabine Moritz well into the new year. After the opening on Saturday, the drawings, paintings and photographs by the artist, who is married to Gerhard Richter, will be presented in two rooms until January 8, 2023. A total of 130 exhibits are on display, said the director of the Museum of Graphic Arts, Gloria Köpnick, in Quedlinburg on Friday. Most of the works come from Sabine Moritz’s Cologne studio, some works are on loan, for example from the Faber-Castell Collection.

The show “Lobeda or the Reconstruction of a World” put together exclusively for Quedlinburg focuses on 96 sheets with motifs from the Jena prefab housing estate Neu-Lobeda, where the artist, who was born in Quedlinburg in 1969, spent part of her childhood. “It’s a journey into the past with links to the present,” said Koepnick.
