Werner Tübke

Ostblog has two entries on the death of Werner Tübke and the Leipziger Schule. Tübke died last week; he was one of the cornerstones of Leipzig's mainstream art scene, along with Wolfgang Mattheuer, who died this spring, and Bernhard Heisig, who lives outside of Berlin. Tübke made arrangements late last year to leave his archive to the GNM in Nuremberg.

[I just got home after a week away and find that I haven't quite processed this news. I hope to offer something more thoughtful sometime later.]
