About Dresdner Frauen-Karla

The artwork titled “Dresdner Frauen-Karla,” crafted by artist Georg Baselitz in 1990, belongs to the Neo-Expressionism art movement and is an example of sculpture.

The artwork presents a monumental, boldly carved wooden head, rendered with exaggerated facial features and painted in a vibrant yellow hue. The textured surface vigorously emphasizes the chiseled marks, adding a raw and expressive quality to the piece. The sculpture rests on a simple plinth, allowing the viewer to focus on the intricate details and intense, almost primal energy conveyed through the rough-hewn craftsmanship. The choice of color and form exemplifies the Neo-Expressionist movement’s emphasis on emotional content and the artist’s distinctive style.
