“After many mutual battles, the artist and the motif look each other square in the eye. In friendship and enmity, they form an inseparable pair, who, in a short pause for reflection after more than 20 years of struggle, weigh each other up: it seems it is not yet decided who will be the victor. On one occasion the artist subjugates the unruly eagle, on another, the eagle triumphs over the defeated artist.” (Günther Gercken, in: Exh. Cat: Georg Baselitz, Adler. Galerie Neuendorf und Buchmann, Frankfurt 1988, p. 5)
