Stockholms Auktionsverk Cologne presents 'The Newspaper Art Collection', an exceptional private art collection from Germany united by a single, powerful motif: the newspaper. Appearing as image, surface, subject, or subtle detail, the newspaper connects all works within this carefully curated thematic collection.
The focus lies on contemporary art, featuring numerous German artists such as Renate Fellner and Rolf Escher, alongside international positions including Robert Brandy and Howard Kanowitz. Within the works, the newspaper functions as a reflection of social reality, transience, information, and media saturation—sometimes prominently staged, sometimes quietly present.
This auction offers collectors a rare opportunity to explore a conceptually coherent collection that examines the newspaper as an artistic medium across borders and generations.
