The work of two-time documenta-participant Alfonso Hüppi (*1935 in Freiburg; lives and works in Baden-Baden and Namibia) is multifaceted and reaches from drawing, printmaking and painting to sculpture, reliefs and installations. Blending abstraction and figuration, his work is rich with poetic wit and subtle irony.

The exhibition of this year's winner of the Erich Heckel Prize in the 2-Raum offers an insight into the complex work of the passionate and freethinking experimenter since the 1950s.
