On unremarkable slips of paper Lacroix noted his thoughts, for example: <em>I consider painting in the old way no longer suitable for expressing the feelings of our present<\/em>, or <em>I\u2019ve always fought against habits<\/em>. They are self-reflections on an artistic and political stance that Lacroix preferred to articulate through his work instead of grand proclamations.<\/p>\n<p>Using historical newspaper articles, letters, and photos from the Platform Aachen archive, it is possible to retrace the history of some of the projects Lacroix had planned for public urban space. The realization often ran aground on its long journey across the desks and through the conference rooms of municipal decision-makers. The plans testify to an artistic conception however that sought nothing less than to extend the reach of art into everyday life.<\/p>\n<p>This presentation also marks the opening of the new exhibition room on the first floor designed by Lars Breuer; it will now feature regularly as a venue for exhibitions and events related to the Platform Aachen.<\/p>\n<p>Curator: Benjamin Dodenhoff<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Plattform Aachen \u2013 Peter Lacroix, Installtion Views<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform091.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6469\" src=\"https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform091.jpg\" alt=\"Plattform09\" width=\"460\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform091.jpg 460w, https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform091-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform131.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6470\" src=\"https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform131.jpg\" alt=\"Plattform13\" width=\"460\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform131.jpg 460w, https:\/\/ludwigforum.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Plattform131-300x193.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><\/a><em><br \/>\nPhotos: Ludwig Forum Aachen<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parallel to the exhibition Pure, the Platform Aachen provides insights into the working approach taken by the artist Peter Lacroix (1924-2010).
