In December 2000, a group of five young German artists, all recent graduates of the prestigious Leipzig Art Academy, organized a small exhibition of their works in Leipzig. Unsurprisingly, the exhibition attracted no notice from the international contemporary art community. From that humble beginning, the "New Leipzig School" has expanded to a dozen artists and grown to be an international phenomenon. On March 19, 2005, MASS MoCA presented the country’s foremost collection of paintings from the New Leipzig School--a collection built by the Rubell Family in Miami--for the first time, and what followed was an international avalanche of attention and demand. That exhibition, Life After Death , and this corresponding publication, include 62 key works by the most sought-after painters of the moment, including Tilo Baumgartel, Tim Eitel, Martin Kobe, Neo Rauch, Christoph Rückhaberle, David Schnell and Matthias Weischer.Santa Site Santa Fe, 4/21/06-6/19/06Washington Katzen Arts Center Museum, 9/5/06-10/29/06 Frye Art Museum, 2/16/07-6/3/07Salt Lake Salt Lake Art Center, 6/23/07-9/30/07Kansas Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, 11/6/07-2/3/08
