Gagosian will exhibit his self-portraits, British Museum has his prints and Royal Academy presents woodcuts from his collection.
London is having a Georg Baselitz moment, with three exhibitions showing different aspects of the German artist’s work and passions opening within five weeks.
Baselitz was in London on Thursday for an exhibition of new self-portraits at the Gagosian. Last week the British Museum opened a group show of German prints, half by Baselitz, and next month the Royal Academy presents rare chiaroscuro woodcuts from the artist’s personal collection and the Albertina in Vienna.
