Karel Appel: Works on Paper presents the artist's drawings, which have rarely been exhibited. Appel did not consider his drawings by-products of painting. In spontaneous creative bursts, he frequently produced works on paper that helped him clarify his art as a whole. Thus, the childlike creatures of the early years, the almost abstract expressive outbursts of the 1950s, and the experiments with collage can be experienced in a completely unique way in his drawings.
