With great pleasure, the Lothar Wolleh Raum presents its first exhibition showcasing cross-generational artists. The group exhibition The Spirit Of displays established artists of the 20th century alongside emerging artists, creating an artistic exchange and dialog.

Lothar Wolleh and Jan Schoonhoven had intensive contact for several years starting in 1968. In Delft, Schoonhoven showed the photographer what fascinated him about the city and how everyday rhythms of facades, masonry and paving stones were reflected in abstract, autonomous drawings and reliefs. The exhibition shows the photo-artistic view of Delft and the work of Jan Schoonhoven.

In 1967, the Boymans-van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam organized a retrospective exhibition dedicated to the Belgian artist René Magritte. Lothar Wolleh traveled to Brussels several times this year and visited the Magritte family in the run-up to the exhibition.

With his photographs, Lothar Wolleh created an intimate portrait of René Magritte's domestic life and his artistic practice.

The exhibition is a homage to the multifaceted collaboration between Joseph Beuys and Lothar Wolleh. Part of the presentation are photographs, vintage prints on PVC and an installation of the artist's book by both artists entitled "Unterwasserbuch".

On the occasion of Joseph Beuys' 100th birthday in 2021, Lothar Wolleh Raum is also publishing a limited edition of Wolleh's photographs of Joseph Beuys.

The Lothar Wolleh Room presents an important selection of Lothar Wolleh's color photographs from the years 1962 to 1979. The focus is on the photographer's abstract images. Until his death in 1979, he created works dealing with the properties and spiritual meaning of color and light.

In 1962 Lothar Wolleh began to work on his radically abstract color work, which is beyond photographic documentation. These early works, which were created in Rome, did not find their way into Wolleh's first large photo book. His pictures, which no longer revealed the individuality of the actors, seemed too radical to the editors.
