In our summer exhibition we are showing a selection of works from our collection: paintings from the 1960s to the present day. We are dedicating one room exclusively to Peter Böhnisch and his outstanding works in sand and pigment. Paintings and reliefs in one, they depict classic faces in timeless spaces. We are showing eight portraits created between 2021 and 2024.

In autumn 1980, the six friends Adamski, Bömmels, Dahn, Dokoupil, Kever and Naschberger moved into a shared studio at Mülheimer Freiheit 110 in Cologne. Their provocative, spontaneous and often figurative works soon became part of every renowned exhibition of "Wild Painting" from the early 1980s. Galerie Michael Haas presents works of the internationally acclaimed Cologne group Mülheimer Freiheit in the rooms on Niebuhrstraße and at Kunst Lager Haas.

Stefan Vogel (*1981) creates a room-filling work for Galerie Michael Haas consisting of large-format paintings, partially covered by curtains dipped in plaster that cover the walls. In his exhibitions, Vogel demonstrates his unique ability to react to spaces and create new spaces within them by expanding the medium of painting materially and installatively.

Galerie Michael Haas presents a selection of works by painter Gerhard Naschberger from the 1980s, accompanied by a catalog. The exhibition Gerhard Naschberger. The 80s illuminates the development of his work after the separation of the internationally celebrated Cologne group Mülheimer Freiheit.

From September 16, 2023, paintings, sculptures and works on paper by more than 20 artists will be shown in the exhibition Black. The connecting element seems simple at first glance, but the displayed works reveal complex approaches to the common theme: black in the visual arts. We cordially invite you to the opening on September 15, 2023 at Galerie Michael Haas and Kunst Lager Haas. Preview available online.

Louise Nevelson (1899-1988) used everyday materials to sculpt and paint monochromatic – mostly black – assemblages of which she considered herself to be an extension. Inspired by Alexander Calder and his works George Warren Rickey (1907-2002) became one of the most important representatives of kinetic sculpture. Galerie Michael Haas will show kinetic, indoor and outdoor, wall and ceiling sculptures as well as prints and collages of the artists.

Galerie Michael Haas is pleased to present an extensive solo exhibition by Gerd Rohling (*1946 in Krefeld). Since his studies in the 1970s with professors Rolf von Bergmann and Karl Horst Hödicke in Berlin, Gerd Rohling has been equally devoted to object art and painting. Exemplary is his installation Wasser und Wein (Water and Wine) at the Venice Biennale curated by Harald Szeemann in 2001 and at the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin in 2003.

Turning the inside out, even if it is a hollow space, is considered a creative principle in Thomas Virnich's work. Childhood memories, popular culture and the modern entertainment industry merge to create their own realities. As a direct transfer of memories, multiperspectives and distorted impressions into the third dimension, Virnich's models function as mediators in the world, between inside and outside. 

Frank Gerritz is known for his massive iron and aluminium sculptures. Galerie Michael Haas presents Gerritz's large-scale works such as Coded Language - Secret Pleasures (2016). They were applied to aluminium with oil wax crayon. The works develop an impressive play between horizontality and verticality in the space – always referring back to the body of the viewer.

The show, curated by Philipp Bollmann, presents selected sculptures and installations by John Isaacs.

In his new works, Peter Böhnisch explores the possibilities of painting beyond oil and canvas. Using pigment, pastels, corundum and sand, he creates monumental paintings on fiberboard that evoke reliefs or frescoes. The materality of the pictures, also of his smaller portraits, thus contrasts with the lightness of the motifs: the enigmatic bodies of bathers, swimmers and astronauts.
