On this page of our site we will present the most interesting exhibitions in our opinion that take place in the museums of the world. Exhibitions that all interested art lovers are required to know. Art is a huge mosaic spanning from prehistory to the present day. It accompanies man from the beginning of his existence because it is that creative expression that in the art-work captures the mental state, emotions, ideas and visualization of the artist and will always be important in human life because of the magnetism it causes to human emotions by stimulating them.

Gagosian is pleased to present What if…., an exhibition of new paintings by Georg Baselitz. This is his first solo exhibition in the San Francisco gallery. A pioneer of Neo-Expressionism, Baselitz conjures new formal developments from art historical lineages – his own extensive oeuvre included. The paintings are created with a transfer method: he paints on a piece of unstretched canvas and then presses a second canvas onto the first to make an impression in oils.
