"The title of the exhibition 'Spontaneous and Constructive' refers to two important characteristics of Weil's works, which oscillate between spontaneous gesture and careful construction of the pictorial space. At the same time, Weil's works actually always show a reference back to classical pictorial forms such as landscapes, still lifes or the human figure," said Laura Domes, curator of the exhibition. Goethe University President Enrico Schleiff comments, "For years, the MGGU's exhibitions have enriched Goethe University's broad spectrum of research. The exhibition on Ernst Weil, who has a close connection to the city of Frankfurt, is another example of how a scientific accompaniment enriches an exhibition and how this in turn becomes a contribution to science and also to the science communication of our Goethe University."
