Description
For the first time, the exhibition “Five Friends” focuses on a circle of artists who had a decisive influence on post-war art in the fields of music, dance, painting, sculpture and drawing. John Cage (1912–1992), Merce Cunningham (1919–2009), Jasper Johns (*1930), Robert Rauschenberg (1925–2008) and Cy Twombly (1928–2011) created a special connection between the artistic genres and media through their intimate exchange.
Museum Brandhorst thus sheds new light on Cy Twombly’s oeuvre, which forms a central focus of its collection; for the first time, his work can be viewed within the context of his artistic beginnings.
