Julie Mehretu

20.01.–20.03.2004

 We are pleased to announce the opening of Julie Mehretu’s first solo exhibition in Germany. For the first time, the artist will be showing,  in one room at the same time, paintings, drawings, and a large-format wall drawing executed on site.

Julie Mehretu’s works are highly emotional and simultaneously analytical commentaries on the state of the world at the beginning of the 21st century. Her fascinating, complex pictorial language works with set pieces from graffiti, comics, and tattoos, with architectural drawings, floorplans of airports, and maps of cities.
