artwork: Albert Oehlen - "Raucher", 1999 - Oil on canvas - Private collectionThis presentation of the work of Albert Oehlen at the Kunstmuseum Bonn marks the continuation of the museum’s series on central positions in painting, including artists such as Brice Marden, Blinky Palermo, Helmut Federle, Willem de Kooning, Philip Guston, Robert Ryman and Raoul de Keyser. At the same time, the show reflects the programmatic identity of the Kunst¬museum Bonn as a museum for German painting after 1945, while also drawing from a large group of works by Albert Oehlen from between 1983 and 2006 that has been part of the museum’s collections since 2009.
