- In all the projects listed above, Götz was invited to choose existing works by other artists as a starting point to create new drawings, paintings and installations. In the resulting installations the viewer and the artist together become participants in recreating the meaning of the historical works being explored.
Pas De Trois; Schlememmer/Götz was a response to the geometry and colours of the figurines from Oskar Schlemmer’s Triadic Ballet in which Götz presented an immersive exhibition of drawings and works. This was collaboration between Domobaal, London and Petra Rinck Galerie, Düsseldorf and afterwards part of ‘Enter Stage Left’ at the Glucksman Gallery, University College Cork. Accompanying publication.
The Russell Chantry, Lothar Götz/Duncan Grant, The Collection, Lincoln, 2016, where Götz recreated a 1:2:1 replica of the Russell Chantry in Lincoln Cathedral, inside which he created a wall painting in response to Duncan Grant’s mural in the original space. Accompanying publication.
Tango to Heaven, part of the group show ‘Drama Queens’ at the Museum Morsbroich, Leverkusen, Germany, 2017, was a colourful abstract reinvention of the original chapel in the historic museum building and a response to the portrait ‘Johannes, der Täufer’ by Alexei Jawlensky in the permanent collection.
Fairground Abstract at the Hatton Gallery, Newcastle University, 2019, where Götz responded to the architecture and history of the Hatton Gallery, its collection and pivotal role in international innovations in education, exhibition design and installation art.
