The more than six metre wide “Composition in Front of Blue and Yellow” by the German artist Fritz Winter counts as one of the iconic works of the first documenta that took place in Kassel in 1955.

In Mario Merz’ expansive installation “Isola”, art is combined with mathematics and industry with nature.

Yellow, turquoise, red – bright colours overlap and permeate each other in this abstract painting by Gerhard Richter and produce several image spaces.

Nine chairs, no table. There were no negotiations, only the deaths of almost all involved persons, when on 6 and 7 November 1985 the guerrilla group M-19 raided the Palace of Justice in Bogotá.

In this complex installation, Michael Rakowitz interweaves stories of destruction from different times and countries, creating unexpected cross-references.
