'The way I work is contradictory in that there are a number of tendencies in operation, the logical as well as its opposite. It is a slow shifting of different stages of decision making, so that the whole system of reference is changing.'
– A.R. Penck
White Cube Mason's Yard is pleased to present an exhibition of paintings by A.R. Penck (1939–2017), a visionary polymath whose approach to European painting was both radical and singular. Often associated with the leading German artists of his time, including Georg Baselitz and Anselm Kiefer, Penck's work was equally distinctive and innovative. Featuring works from the mid-1970s up to 1990, the exhibition focuses on a particularly fertile and significant decade and a half in the artist's 50-year career.
