The young British-Kenyan painter Michael Armitage (born 1984 in Nairobi, Kenya) has quickly become one of the most exciting voices in contemporary painting. In his large-format, nuanced oil paintings, he combines East African and European motifs and painting traditions. He draws inspiration from political events, pop culture, folklore and personal memories, weaving these into mythically charged and dreamlike images. With "Paradise Edict" Michael Armitage, who will be awarded the renowned Ruth Baumgarte Art Award in the fall, celebrates his first major presentation in a museum setting and his first show in Germany. Texts by: Don Handa, Imraan Coovadia, Elsbeth Court, Anna Schneider, Dimona Stöckle--Exhibition: Haus der Kunst, München, Germany (04.09.2020 - 14.02.2021).
