The German painter and sculptor Georg Baselitz, known for his images of raw bodies and inverted landscapes, died this Thursday at the age of 88, according to reports from Reuters and his gallery, the French Thaddaeus Ropac. In recent years, Baselitz painted large canvases from his wheelchair and transported brushes and paints in a wheeled cart. “The most sensible thing, in my situation, would be to say: ‘I’ll stick to small formats’,” he declared to El País at 87, on the occasion of an exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts in Bilbao. “But, of course, I don’t do what is sensible. What is right for me is what is senseless.”
