DIRK DIETRICH HENNIG DIE SAMMLUNG RUDOLF 17.08.22 - 08.01.23 UPPER COLLECTION The Rudolf Collection brings together around 60 works by the historian and autodidact Carl Gerhardt Rudolf. Avant-garde artists such as Lucio Fontana, painters of classical modernism such as Picasso and Piet Mondrian can be found in Rudolf's acquired repertoire, as can the Hanoverian Dadaist Kurt Schwitters and many others.

The exhibition brings together around 60 undated works from Rudolf's estate, including copied works by important artists such as Pablo Picasso, Piet Mondrian, Kurt Schwitters, Claes Oldenburg, Lucio Fontana, Roy Lichtenstein and Christo, to name just a few. In addition, works that Rudolf added to an existing oeuvre, as well as historical documents - files and press articles - are presented in the exhibition.
