To the artist
A.R. Penck, whose civilian name is Ralf Winkler, was born in 1939 in Dresden and ranks among the most important German artists of the postwar era. After his early activity in divided Germany, notably in East Berlin, he developed a distinctive visual language that draws on prehistoric art. His works are characterized by stick figures, signs, symbols, and an archaic-looking form of expression.

Penck is regarded as one of the intellectual fathers of the movement of the "New Wilds" of the early 1980s, which became known for an expressive, ironic and provocative aesthetics. As a frequent participant in Documenta, he received numerous international awards. His works are in major public and private collections worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York and the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.
