Georg Baselitz

Press release

Georg Baselitz's (1938–2026) solo exhibition at White Cube Bermondsey takes its title from one of the artist's final paintings, 'Back Again', a now poignant testament to the artist's drive to return, distil and resolve those motifs that consumed him during a career that spanned more than 60 years. One of the very last exhibitions Baselitz conceived before his passing in April 2026, the artist elected to bring together those subjects that defined his practice, including the eagle, the figure of the Hero and his longtime muse, wife and partner, Elke Kretzschmar.
