Quotes

“From the initially rather strict works - for example The Siblings , Standing Women at the Window or On the Stairs - all made in the mid-fifties - she reaches critical to shocking images by the mid-seventies at the latest. Almost anti-cyclical to the general art scene, Ingeborg Leuthold has not only never left realism, but has given it greater expressiveness in her own, often exaggerated formal language. "

- Anne Meckel (1993)

“In the nineties, the painter's interest in the semantics of exhibited bodies increased and led her to large-format close-ups of the Love Parade and Christopher Street Day. Encountering the dream of a gender swap with sympathy, these depictions do not stick to the surface and leave no doubt about the inner loneliness that the actors cover up with provocative disguise, exposure and obscene gestures. The radicalism with which Ingeborg Leuthold takes up the sexual connotation of the modern bacchante traits and investigates the crisis of meaning hidden behind it is sought in vain in contemporary painting. "

- Friedrich Rothe (2010)

“While the tattoo was still frowned upon by criminals and circus artists around 1900, it is ubiquitous today. Displayed or carefully hidden under clothing, it satisfies the strong desire among millions of people from all walks of life to put an end to the keep-smiling and to assure themselves of their own beauty and attractiveness through this expensive and painful procedure. "

- Friedrich Rothe (2010)
