"Artwork by Hubertus Giebe, featuring hand-drawn designs"
Artist Hubertus Giebe's Upcoming Book and His Significant Works
Hubertus Giebe, a renowned German artist, is set to release a new book titled "Hubertus Giebe. Drawn by Hand" on 1st July 2025. This hardcover Zwiebook, published by salomo Publishing, will contain 148 pages and is priced at 28 Euro.
Giebe's work has been lauded by critics and art enthusiasts alike, with one experienced gallery visitor describing it as one of the most significant of our time. His drawings demonstrate a unique blend of high skill and hallucinatory power, reminiscent of Albrecht Dürer's conciseness and Max Beckmann’s expressive power.
Giebe's artistic journey began in 1990 with the discovery of a catalog of his "history paintings". In 1996, he released a joint volume with poetry and graphics titled "Love Anarchy". One of his most notable collaborations was in 1998 when he released "Paris, Paris", featuring 15 poems for 15 paintings by Hubertus Giebe.
The stylistic approach of the four-and-a-half-page introduction to "Hubertus Giebe. Drawn by Hand", penned by Christoph Tannert, is precise, concise, and pointed, similar to a list without baggage but with substance. Tannert's introductory essay, "Drawing Without a Final Stroke", highlights Giebe's artistic potency and work grounded in various philosophical traditions.
Giebe's paintings carry colors and the "pull" of our epoch(s) and their events and ideas. Each painting is a reflection of its time, making his work a valuable addition to any art collection.
The critic, who first met Giebe in 1992 at an exhibition opening in Dresden, envisions Giebe's work being acquired by the Metropolitan Museum in New York. However, as of now, there is no publicly available information indicating that Giebe's artwork has been acquired by the Metropolitan Museum of Art. For the most up-to-date acquisition records, one might consider checking directly with the museum's collection database or contacting their curatorial department.
The critic has expressed a desire for Giebe's work to be acquired by the Metropolitan Museum, and plans to visit the MoMA again in 2026, hoping to see Giebe's pieces on display. In previous visits, the critic has mentally paired Giebe's drawings with works by Max Beckmann, such as his "Argonauts" at the MoMA in January 2001.
"Hubertus Giebe. Drawn by Hand" is targeted towards friends of drawing art, art students, and those connected to the beautiful arts. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the depth and significance of Giebe's work.
