Sein einzigartiger Stil machte Lovis Corinth (1858–1925) zum Vorreiter der Moderne. Seine Walchensee-Bilder gehören zu den Meisterwerken des 20. Jahrhunderts. Das Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie Regensburg verwahrt eine große Zahl von Werken des aus Ostpreußen stammenden Künstlers, darunter zwölf Skizzenbücher und ein Album mit Handzeichnungen. Diese gewähren erstmals detaillierte Einblicke in den Schaffensprozess Corinths. Die Ausstellung aus Anlass seines 100. Todestages lässt nacherleben, wie Corinth seine Gemälde in Zeichnungen und Ölstudien genauestens vorbereitete. Die Kapitel des Kataloges folgen Motiven, die der Künstler über seine gesamte Schaffenszeit hinweg immer wieder neu formulierte und bis an die Grenzen der Abstraktion führte. Maltechnische Untersuchungen veranschaulichen die markante Veränderung in Corinths künstlerischem Stil vom Früh- zum Spätwerk, während jüngste Forschungsergebnisse die Provenienzen seiner Gemälde in der Galerie beleuchten. Ausgewählte Zitate Corinths lassen den Künstler selbst zu Wort kommen.
Lovis Corinth’s (1858–1925) unique style made him a pioneer of modern art. The Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie (KOG) in Regensburg holds many works of the artist from East Prussia, including twelve sketchbooks and an album of drawings. These provide entirely new and detailed insights into Corinth’s creative process. The exhibition for the 100th anniversary of his death lets us experience how Corinth meticulously prepared his paintings in drawings and oil studies. Examinations of painting technique illustrate the pronounced change in Corinth’s artistic style between his early and late work, while the most recent research findings illuminate the provenance of his paintings in the KOG. Not only Corinth’s artistic development from his years of study in Königsberg (today Kaliningrad) and Munich to the virtuoso Walchensee sketchbook is comprehensible in the sketchbooks, but also the draft process for important paintings like Das Komplott (Conspiracy) or Salome. Beyond the many references to painting and printmaking, a new and comprehensive picture of Lovis Corinth as a draughtsman can also be acquired based on the material. The Regensburg sketchbooks are made thoroughly and scientifically accessible and are being reproduced for the first time.
