Interview: Brigitta Milde in Conversation with Lynn Rother on Carlfriedrich Claus

Carlfriedrich Claus is one of few artists who worked in East Germany that has work in MoMA’s collection. A portfolio of ten prints, together called Aurora, was acquired in 1980, just a few years after the prints were produced and nearly a decade before the Berlin Wall came down.
