The artistic reception of Dix in terms of subject matter, political iconography, style as well as technical and genre-specific issues is a second focus of the exhibition Dix and the Present. The exhibition reveals the shifting cultural and social parameters in the reception of Dix's oeuvre, while at the same time showing how his work continues to hold great fascination for about fifty of the world's most renowned artists of our day - as challenge or stimulus, by means of appropriation and reinterpretation. Yael Bartana, Monica Bonvicini, Marc Brandenburg, John Currin, Alice Neel, Nicolas Party, Cindy Sherman, Katharina Sieverding and Kara Walker are among the artists included.
