Monika Baer: Paintings – Works on Paper 1992-2005

This work accompanies the exhibition Monika Baer at Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht, Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich and Ausstellungshalle zeitgenossische Kunst, Munster, 2006. This catalogue for Monika Baer’s first large solo exhibition features her latest works, masterful paintings which cause a deep visual impact. Since the early 1990s, in her paintings, drawings and collages, Baer has developed a surreal, mysterious world that she seems to relate to earlier epochs. In her work, a new romantic era characterised by subjectivity, sensibility and visual opulence has begun.
