kalliope | jürgen partenheimer

Calliope brings together eight vessels by Jürgen Partenheimer – some of which are being exhibited for the first time – which were created at Nymphenburg Porcelain Manufactory. Under the title Calliope, the muse of epic poetry, the artist developed three basic sculptural forms from which he explores the painterly and graphic possibilities on porcelain.  

The abstract oeuvre of German artist Jürgen Partenheimer follows the contemporary interpretation of modernism, from which he consistently develops his own work. In various forms of artistic expression – painting, sculpture, works on paper, artists books and text - he combines minimalist formal vocabulary with lyrical content.
