Otto Dix is considered one of the most important German artists of the 20th Century. His dedicated and ambivalent realism remains explosive. The painter, however, to determine its realism of the 20s, it would mean his vital adaptability to deny his modernity. Like hardly any other he has reflected the changes and contradictions in his work the breaks and dislocations of the century of extremes.
Dix is his life true to himself - and until now remained a cultural dispute. "I once 'neither for nor for. I'm sorry. I am just 'n such sovereign proletarian, not true that I say:' I do! And you may say what you want. "Why is that good, soft? I do not own. But I'll do it. Because I know, it was that and not otherwise. "[1963] Source: www.otto-dix.de
