Konrad Fischer

From the outset, Konrad and Dorothee Fischer's approach was distinctive: rather than merely exhibiting works, they invited artists themselves to Düsseldorf. This practice fostered an international network of collaboration and exchange, while also giving rise to the creation of site-specific sculptures, paintings, and installations. It was here that Daniel Buren first introduced his spatial interventions, Gilbert & George presented their now-iconic Singing Sculpture, and Wolfgang Laib installed his delicate works in beeswax and pollen. The gallery also championed new conceptual developments in painting and photography, presenting works by Robert Mangold, Alan Charlton, Bernd and Hilla Becher and Jan Dibbets.
