If there is one person who epitomises a region or a very specific period in a city’s history, it is Franz Xaver Kroetz in 1980s Munich. When Helmut Dietl has his hero strutting down Maximiliansstraße to the sound of Konstantin Wecker’s songs, a sense of nonchalance emanates that viewers simply cannot resist.Â
Capturing the portrait of this wild man without taking into account one’s own past as a frequently staged playwright, one’s many visits to the Museum Brandhorst, and the colour palettes of Cy Twombly or Maria Lassnig, is a challenge one is happy to take on – and one that ultimately finds its expression in a portrait that does justice to Baby Schimmerlos.

Maximilian Schneider
Motion Pictures. Maximilian paints in a figurative and neo-expressionist style. He places particular emphasis on structure and the interplay of colour tones.
His paintings are created as part of his studies and serve to deepen his understanding of art-historical contexts, whilst giving his impressions their own unique language.
Pop-cultural influences from music, fashion, literature and, above all, film repeatedly emerge as a central theme in his works.
Once an idea has been sufficiently sketched out and thought through, the process of painting begins, and his paintings become reality.
