A NEW SPIRIT IN PAINTING 1981 ON BEING AN ANTIM...

The book is the first full-length study of the seminal exhibition 'A New Spirit in Painting' 
which took place at the Royal Academy of Arts  London in 1981. The exhibition has been
overlooked in the literature about contemporary art. The book aims to correct this omission by
showing how the exhibition captured issues that brought together several key trajectories in
the history of painting  which are still reverberating today. It starts in the context of the
contemporary developments in art spanning from the 1950s to the 1970s and reassesses the art
historical significance of 'A New Spirit in Painting'. The essay is accompanied by a series of
interviews the author conducted with artists  curators and gallerists who were  more or less
directly  linked to the exhibition (Georg Baselitz  Markus Lüpertz  Rainer Fetting  Norman
Rosenthal  Jean-Louis Froment  Tim Marlow  Michael Werner  Thaddaeus Ropac).
