Karl Otto Götz Karl Otto Götz - Biography

Karl Otto Götz is, without any doubt, one of the most influential figures of the German Informel.
The artist, who also experimented with film and photography in the 1930s, was, together with Otto Greis, Heinz Kreutz and Bernard Schultze, one of the founding members of the artist group "Quadriga". As a key figure for the Informel he went down in art history. Spontaneous calligraphed improvisations, often executed in gouache or mixed media (e.g. with casein paint), are characteristic of his oeuvre. The painting process of these gestic-abstract works took only a few seconds - the longer it took, however, to mentally prepare for the moment of spontaneous creation in form of a kind of meditation. With this method Karl Otto Götz stood in the tradition of the "Automatism", which had been developed in Surrealism as a means to visualize the inner world.
Karl Otto Götz, represented in numerous exhibitions, was recently honored in the Arp Museum Bahnhof Rolandseck in Remagen with the retrospective "Karl Otto Götz. 'In Erwartung blitzschneller Wunder'[In Expectance of Miracles at Lightning Speed ]".
