In 2008, Rüdiger Schöttle Gallery celebrated its 40th anniversary. An exhibition with works by Jeff Wall is rounding off a series of exhibitions the gallery has conceived to mark this occasion. The very first joint project between the Rüdiger Schöttle Gallery and Jeff Wall was a contribution to the exhibition “Westkunst”, which took place in Cologne in 1981 and was curated by Kaspar König and Lazlo Glozer. The current exhibition presents early works from the 1980s, including “A woman and her doctor” (1980/81), “Doorpusher” (1984), “The Smoker” (1986), “The Thinker“, (1986) and “The old prison” (1987).
