Can you make out the patterns in the light from your flashlights? We discover 120colourful artworks full of geometrical figures, shapes, and lines – because in the dark, art reveals a whole new side of itself.

The exhibition will be the first full retrospective in Düsseldorf, where Immendorff studied, taught and worked for decades.
