One is considered to be the pioneer of abstract expressionism in the USA, the other has developed his own abstract-scriptural formal language in Afghanistan and Germany. In the exhibition “Abstract – Aatifi and Mark Tobey”, the works of both artists come into contact with one another: works on canvas and paper by Aatifi are juxtaposed with graphics by Mark Tobey. The show is carried out in cooperation with Müller-Held Kunst Bad Oeynhausen, Germany.
