In Propellerfrau, how is the History discussed?
This painting was first exhibited in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam in 1992. In 2007, Polke sold the painting to a friendly art director from Cologne. After Polke's death in 2010, the heirs of Polke sued the ostensible buyer, claiming the painting had been stolen. The Landgericht Köln (high court in Cologne) decided in 2014 that the 2007 sale of the work was valid and required the heirs to return the work to the buyer.
In 2018, the painting was added to the collection of Museum Trésor des Templiers in Rorschacherberg, Switzerland.
