Born in 1945, Immendorff was the post-war disillusionment experienced politicized every moment. As a student in the 1960s, faced the task of reviewing the tragic history of Germany and her turbulent relationship with modernity. This forced him to conceive a balancing act between ¶ rg Immendorff eras.JÃ Large canvases are often filled with the image of a literal theater of decline. His art compositions allude to the illusory aspects of art, which has a script personal mythology that is often poignant, funny, poignant and decision prophetic.Myth is in the workplace by Jörg Immendorff. The political iconography, like the German eagle, and sickle Soviet Socialist Fist workers mix literally with its ever-widening cast of characters, both political and artistic friends. At the heart is a rewrite of history - both political and artistic -- In case of personal and moral positioning of reconciliation are at the forefront.

The most famous achievement is his series Jörg Immendorff of CafÃ © Deutschland, initiated in 1977 and continued through the 1980s. His imaginary nightclub sits on the border east-west, a separate homeland in the war policy burlesque cold-, national identity, and the battle of the artistic heritage unfolds every night in every subterfuge and drama.

A the left of the canvas of the Brandenburg Gate, with its four apocalyptic horses, falls through the bar thereby taking the ice covering the country. On the right, impotent, long buried Hitler looks to the future from a perspective of alcohol, while leading by poisonous claws. As usual, the artist notes the whole scene unfold from his ringside table comfortable.

Jörg Immendorff a table divided into three parts: work, knowledge and possibility. His central figure, a goddess of women embodying an owl of wisdom, is the icon of discipline and virtue, radiant in a grim backdrop of storm clouds and darkness. Through it flows a stream of fertility and rebirth in the form of lip-like fruit, offered by the work of the rural worker.In foreground, Jörg Immendorff shows this as a dry and cracked soil. The egg - recalls the world - offers hope for the future, the weighting for a manuscript saying: â € ~ Partnership with a fault: the industry, pride, honesty, respect prior art. "
