Udo Lindenberg Opens Werl Art Exhibition Ahead of 80th Birthday

The opening signals a broader birthday program mixing new releases with a market push.

Overview

  • Lindenberg launched the show at Walentowski Galerien in Werl for invited guests, drawing about 1,000 people to see roughly 200 colorful, often caricature-like works.
  • The evening featured live renditions of his hits, with a children’s choir from Düsseldorf joining on some songs.
  • He told attendees he intends to reach 100 and said he plans a party in 2046.
  • The gallery is offering rare originals, large canvas prints, signed silkscreens, and works on paper priced in the four- and five-figure range.
  • The exhibition is part of build-up to his May 17 80th birthday, with a tribute album called We love Udo and a Best-Of planned, alongside a separate Hamburg show already on view.
