Fabulous! The lion man and his descendants

almir mavignier. democracy of dots

21.11.2026 - 20.06.2027

The exhibition invites visitors into a visual world filled with tiny, shimmering elements: dots. In his paintings and graphic works, Almir Mavignier (1925–2018) creates fascinating compositions that appear to oscillate and shimmer depending on the viewer’s distance and angle of view.
The Brazilian-born artist and poster designer is considered one of the most significant figures in Concrete Art and Op Art. He spent formative years at the Ulm School of Design (HfG Ulm), where he developed a distinctive visual language that uniquely bridges art and design.
The exhibition “almir mavignier: democracy of dots” brings together works from various phases of his career. It traces Mavignier’s journey toward his iconic dot paintings while also highlighting the diversity of his oeuvre — ranging from optically vibrating compositions to two-dimensional graphic works and poster designs.
