- From the series “Driver”, which was exhibited in Cologne and Porto in the year of its creation. - Despite a perspective that focuses on the object, the scene tells more than the eye can see and encourages observers to fill in the narrative themselves. - With his cool aesthetics and typical flat application of paint, Eberhard Havekost is one of the most internationally sought-after German painters of his generation. - Works by the artist are in possession of important public collections such as the Tate Modern London, the Museum of Modern Art New York, the Städel Museum Frankfurt/Main, the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, the Musée d'Art Moderne Paris or the MOCA Los Angeles.
