Born in Tilsit, East Prussia, in 1930, painter, musician and actor Armin Mueller-Stahl is an exceptional figure in 21st-century art thanks to the complexity of his artistic expressions. The artist's biography plays a prominent role in his various artistic activities: encounters in the German Democratic Republic, the Federal Republic of Germany and the United States of America have shaped the artist's life. Armin Mueller-Stahl's artistic oeuvre, which has grown in this way, comprises numerous paintings, drawings, lithographs, etchings and screen prints.
The Museum Schloss Moyland is dedicating a solo exhibition to the artist, in cooperation with the Kunsthalle Emden and the Kunst- und Kulturstiftung Opelvillen Rüsselsheim, in recognition of his multifaceted oeuvre. The aim of the exhibition is to present the artist's personality and work on the basis of a number of selected themes and groups of works.
In addition to the artist's often highly political works, the exhibition will also feature numerous impressions of his cinematic and acting work.
A catalogue with around 180 illustrations is available for €28 in the Moylandshop.
