Antonius Höckelmann (1937–2000) was a leading post-war German artist, renowned for his expressive figurative style. Close to artists such as Georg Baselitz, A. R. Penck, Markus Lüpertz and Jörg Immendorff, he developed a rich body of work combining sculpture, drawing and painting. His work was notably featured at documenta 6 in 1977 and was the subject of a solo exhibition at the Kunsthalle in Cologne in 1980. Rediscovered through exhibitions and research carried out by art historians, his work continues to attract interest for its expressive power and artistic quality, particularly in the works from the 1980s and 1990s.
