His works combine both, for example in his early idea of a <em>diary of moments: <\/em>he painted at least one picture every day until the end of his life. <br\/><br\/>Through visiting professorships, scholarships and prizes, he lived and worked in Paris, Rome, Australia and Japan, among other places. His life&#8217;s work reflects the postmodern art movements of his time. Rolf-Gunter Dienst died in Baden-Baden in 2016, shortly before the opening of his major solo exhibition at Museum K\u00fcppersm\u00fchle.  <br\/><br\/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Rolf-Gunter Dienst, Memoiren eines Leitartiklers, 1962, oil on canvas<br\/>Image dimensions: 60 x 50 cm, MKM Foundation, Rolf-Gunter Dienst estate<br\/>\u00a9 Photo: Katharina Zimmermann, Duisburg<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exhibition in the Oberlichtsaal of the MKM from April 23, 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":31544,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"ausstellungen-status":[133],"austellungskategorien":[],"class_list":["post-31543","ausstellung","type-ausstellung","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","ausstellungen-status-current"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Rolf-Gunter Dienst - Diary of the pictures.
