SUMMARY;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:WOLFGANG BELTRACCHI | HAMBURG – MYTHS AND STORIES AT THE GATEWAY TO=0D=0ATHE WORLD
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Wolfgang Beltracchi: Hamburg – Myths and Stories at the Gateway to=0D=0Athe World=0D=0A=0D=0AAn artist who kept the art world on edge for decades—now presenting=0D=0Ahis own, distinctive works in Hamburg. Wolfgang Beltracchi is one of=0D=0Athe best-known and most controversial artists of our time. Having once=0D=0Abeen a master of forgery, he now creates works of extraordinary power=0D=0Aand originality under his own name. At the Barlach Halle K, he delves=0D=0Ainto the myths and stories of Hamburg—a city that has long viewed=0D=0Aitself as a gateway to the world: a place defined by its harbor,=0D=0Atrade, longing, and new beginnings.=0D=0A=0D=0AYour chance to experience Beltracchi’s original work=0D=0A=0D=0AThis exhibition does not feature copies, but rather original works by=0D=0AWolfgang Beltracchi himself. It is a rare opportunity to experience=0D=0Afirsthand the artistic signature, vibrant use of color, and visionary=0D=0Avisual language of an exceptional artist—a man who, perhaps like no=0D=0Aother, both polarizes and fascinates. Tickets are available now via=0D=0AEventim, and will also be sold at the door starting from the=0D=0Aexhibition’s opening on November 13 (12 euros; 10 euros for=0D=0Aconcessions; free for children under 8).=0D=0A=0D=0AAbout Wolfgang Beltracchi=0D=0A=0D=0ABorn in Höxter in 1951, Wolfgang Beltracchi is considered one of the=0D=0Amost accomplished artists of his generation—as well as arguably the=0D=0Amost successful art forger in history. For decades, he created=0D=0Aoriginal, previously non-existent works in the style of great masters=0D=0Asuch as Max Ernst or Heinrich Campendonk, introducing them to the=0D=0Amarket as "lost" originals. The fraud was uncovered in 2011, and=0D=0ABeltracchi was sentenced to a term in prison. Since his release, he=0D=0Ahas worked exclusively under his own name—proving with every new=0D=0Apiece that his extraordinary talent extends far beyond the realm of=0D=0Aforgery. Today, he is one of the most sought-after contemporary=0D=0Aartists, with his life and work garnering significant international=0D=0Aattention—not least due to the documentary "Beltracchi: The Art of=0D=0AForgery."=0D=0A=0D=0AAbout Barlach Halle K=0D=0A=0D=0ABarlach Halle K is situated in the heart of Hamburg’s art=0D=0Ascene—right on the "art mile" between the Deichtorhallen and the=0D=0AHamburger Kunsthalle, and in the immediate vicinity of the=0D=0AKunstverein. The "K" in its name stands for *Kunst*, *Kultur*, and=0D=0A*Kommunikation* (art, culture, and communication). For years, this=0D=0Aformer gallery for contemporary art on Klosterwall has hosted=0D=0Ahigh-caliber exhibitions and cultural events—providing the ideal=0D=0Asetting for an encounter with the work of Wolfgang Beltracchi.=0D=0A
