The exhibition, which was originally scheduled to run until October, has been extended until November 23 due to its popularity. The gallery, Ludwigsgalerie, made this decision to cater to the overwhelming response from visitors.
The exhibition showcases around 300 paintings and drawings, including large, colorful formats, "Udograms" (drawn self-portraits with a hat), and "Likörellen" (aquarelles with egg, cherry, and peppermint liqueur as color). Visitors can immerse themselves in Lindenberg's unique artistic style, which has been reaching people in a unique way beyond music, according to gallery director Christine Vogt.
In addition to the main exhibition, a side wing of the gallery hosts a discography of all 40 Lindenberg studio albums. Here, visitors can listen to all albums in full using 60 media players and headphones. This immersive experience offers a comprehensive exploration of Lindenberg's artistic journey, both in music and visual art.
The retrospective exhibition has been curated by Frank Bartsch, the co-curator of the exhibition and Lindenberg archivist. Bartsch's meticulous work has ensured that the exhibition presents a comprehensive and accurate representation of Lindenberg's artistic journey.
Udo Lindenberg's art has drawn in more than 25,000 visitors since its opening at the end of June. This overwhelming response is a testament to Lindenberg's enduring appeal and the universal resonance of his art. For those who have yet to visit, the exhibition is not to be missed.
