          Career

          In Leipzig, Matthias Weischer encountered like-minded artists with whom he was to create a stir in the late 1990s under the New Leipzig School label.

          The artists considered to belong to that group – including Neo Rauch, David Schnell, and Martin Kobe – are conspicuous primarily for the theatrical nature of their paintings and their giant canvases. Weischer’s early works show age-worn interiors and forgotten studios frozen in time.
