Dieter Goltzsche's work belongs to the canon of recent German graphic art. It was created beyond the ideological influence of the East, but also independent of the Western zeitgeist. It combines a piece of the best Dresden drawing tradition with Prussian rationalism and Berlin coolness. From the very beginning, Goltzsche worked exclusively on paper. Drawing in ink, chalk and graphite was his lasting interest. Colour - initially watercolour, later tempera and pastel - gradually took its place from the 1960s onwards.
The "Blue Peach" exhibition at the Städtische Galerie Dresden comprises around one hundred works. In addition to Dieter Goltzsche's drawings from six decades, it also takes a comprehensive look at his paintings for the first time. The exhibition presents Goltzsche as a precise, unsentimental observer of reality and introduces him as an inexhaustible, experimental inventor of free forms and pictorial ciphers. It shows how he developed his work through the interplay of figuration and abstraction, poetic association and playful fabulation.
