At the request of the publishers Schirmer / Mosel, Twombly selected more than 100 never previously published Polaroid photographs for a catalogue that was published just before his death on 5 July 2011. The photographs are an addition to the artist’s creative world and throw new light on it. The exhibition focuses on a less familiar aspect of Twombly’s oeuvre: his photographic work.

The exhibition includes more than 100 dryprint Polaroid photographs (selected by Twombly himself), along with a selection of other works by Twombly and a film portrait by Tacita Dean.Ĭy Twombly (who was born in Lexington in 1928 and died in Rome in 2011) was one of the most important US artists of his generation. © Schirmer/Mosel Verlag – Nicola Del RoscioĪs a tribute to the recently deceased artist, the Centre for Fine Arts is turning the spotlight on a less familiar aspect of his oeuvre. © Schirmer/Mosel Verlag – Fondazione Nicola del Roscio Sammlung Lambrecht-Schadeberg / Rubenspreisträger der Stadt Siegen im Museum für Gegenwartskunst Please click on the photographs for a larger version of the image.
