Georg BASELITZ ( 1991 ) "FRAU AUS DEM SUDEN" 1991 The artistic research of Georg Baselitz is characterized by a constant and provocative opposition to the visuel stereotyped models and by an unyielding criticism - activated from inside and then using its own means - of the methods and modes of art. All his works can be read as an ironic demolition of the limits and of the perceptive models - already there - which conditions the enjoyment of art; Baselitz however shows his own intolerance, mainly towards the presumed duties of Art: "The artist works without justification. His social link is asocial, his only responsibility is his bahaviour, and all this in front of the work." (Georg Baselitz) For this reason, his aesthetics of transgression is dominated by a simple language, almost primitive that reverses the point of view of painting and encloses sculpture into the limits - idiomatic - of painting. Baselitz’s sculptures are - I am not the first to say it - the works of a painter. That is why, maybe, we are surprised in "Frau aus dem Süden" ( woman from the south ) by the lustre in the yellow she is painted with.
