On view will be original graphics, collages and sculptures with the central theme text. In 20th century art - especially since Concept Art - there are numerous artistic positions in which text becomes an artistic medium. As a poetic force, text is added to the visual information of the images. Signs, words and sentences become the triggers of the imagination and interpenetrate with the expressiveness of the images. But signs, words and sentences also replace the classical image. John Giorno died in October 2019 at the age of 82 in his hometown New York. The poet, artist and activist was a contemporary and lover of Andy Warhol during the 1960s and was the leading actor in his movie „Sleep“. He is one of the key figures in the New York art scene and explored the development and use of modern communication technology. But he also became known for his poetic writing on canvas. Giorno was married to Ugo Rondinone until his death. Ugo Rondinone (*1964) is certainly regarded as one of the best-known contemporary conceptual and installation artists. Born in Switzerland, he lives and works in Zurich and New York. His works can be found in almost every important museums of the world. Galerie Frank Flügel currently has two new artworks by Rondinone in its program. A new world record for a painting by the American Pop Art artist Alex Katz was set at the Phillips auction house in London on October 2nd, 2019. The painting Blue Umbrella I from 1972 achieved £3,375,000 / US$ 4.1 million.

We have numerous works by Alex Katz in our program, including prints, paintings, and sculptures. Frank Fluegel Gallery with stores in Nuremberg, Germany and Kitzbuhel, Austria is focused on Pop Art, Contemporary Art and Street Art.

The second store in Kitzbühel/Austria has been opened in February 2018. The gallery is located in central Kitzbuehel in a typical townhouse of Tyrol that boasts 480 years of history. It is also known under the name Mantler Hausand can be found at Josef-Pirchl-Str. 6. The first exhibition in our new rooms was dedicated to Street Art Star Mr. Brainwash. Pop Art is one of the most important and fastest growing segments in international art markets, which is becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Steadily rising prices are an indication of its growing popularity which has now continued for almost 50 years. Street Artists like Mr. Brainwash, but also artists of the New Pop Art like Devin Miles, Heiner Meyer and Nelson De La Nuez take up motifs from classics like Andy Warhol and carry on with new interpretations.

Changing solo shows expose different positions of our gallery program. Participating at international art fairs completes our gallery task.
