Museums in the Stuttgart Region Press Release Stark Contrasts Museums in the Stuttgart Region Great art is not only to be found in great cities. The museums in the Stuttgart Region present folklore, Classic Modernism, sculpture and literature – not to mention chocolate! Waldenbuch. This small town to the south of Stuttgart has a branch of the Württemberg State Museum.

Covering an area of 2,500 square metres, the exhibition focuses on daily living, illustrated by everyday objects from the 18th century up to the present day. “Quadratisch. Praktisch. Kunst.” (“Square. Practical. Art.”) might be a suitable motto for the Museum Ritter, in allusion to the Ritter Chocolate advertising slogan. Located directly adjacent to the Ritter Sport chocolate factory, its exhibits are a feast for the eyes rather than the palate: Marli Hoppe-Ritter's collection revolves around the Square and its representations in art in the 20th and 21st centuries. Closing on 11th April 2021, a special exhibition devoted to Vera Molnar gives insights into the extensive oeuvre of this artist, born in Budapest in 1924, who is regarded as an important pioneer of computer art. Also closing on 11th April 2021 is the show Highlights. Light Art from the Collection. The luminous highlights illustrate the broad scope of the use of light in art. Schwäbisch Hall.

Classic Modernism is represented by works of prominent artists such as Max Beckmann, Edvard Munch and Emil Nolde, to name but a few.

The Kunsthalle Würth presents selections from its collections to the public in a series of alternating exhibitions.

Penck to Yngve Holen and Michael Sailstorfer. The Johanniterkirche has a permanent exhibition of Old Masters from the Würth Collection. Its nucleus is the former “Fürstlich Fürstenbergischer Bilderschatz”, the Royal Fürstenberg Art Collection, which the Würth family acquired in the year 2003.

  • Manifestations of Exile in the Work of Max Beckmann
    Sydney Norton and Lynette Roth Manifestations of Exile in the Work of Max Beckmann Focusing on selected works from the extensive collection of paintings and prints by Max Beckmann at the Saint Louis Art Museum, the following essay addresses moments of intersection between the artist’s oeuvre and the experience of living and working in a foreign country due to political regime change and the aftereffects of war. Section one examines two paintings – The King and Self-Portrait in Blue Jacket – within the context of the series of revisions made to the canvases at various stages of the art- ist’s exile. Section two investigates seven prints from the lithograph portfolio Day and Dream, completed in 1946 while Beckmann was living in Amsterdam. The multiple layers, both literal and metaphorical, that permeate these works offer viewers strik- ing visual traces of the geographical disorientation, shifting historical circumstances, and social influences that informed Max Beckmann’s life and self-perceptions over his thirteen years of self-imposed exile in Amsterdam, St. Louis, and New York. These works point toward a fatalistic internalization of historical circumstance, combined with an ongoing self-reflexive dialogue between the artist and his work.1 In 1937, twenty-eight paintings and a total of 590 artworks by Max Beckmann were systematically removed from German museums as part of the infamous Nazi “degenerate art” campaign. That same year, the painter and his sec- ond wife, Mathilde (“Quappi”) Beckmann, left Germany for Holland never to return. Thanks to the assistance of an array of supporters, Beckmann was able to live and work in Amsterdam in relative safety.

I have completed and filed the original term paper fn art hf story fn the Art Department office and I have given a copy to the course instructor. Course Number semester Year Stu~1gnature·t,~ bate t The role of the self-portrait in art is overlooked as a significant element of social criticism. With feminism dominating contemporary social criticism, male self- ref lection seems insignificant. Art criticizing male dominance and/or female oppression crosses the gender gap and becomes significant socially, but it rarely addresses male dominance from the correct perspective. Men are after all at the root of the problem, so we should look at art made by men about men for any truths that might help to ease social concerns. What follows is a discussion about male images done by male artists. We will look at three artists from three time periods who have looked at and used themselves as vehicles of both self and social reflection : Egon Schiele, 1890-1918, Max Beckmann, 1884-1950, and Francesco Clemente, 1952- . Each of these artists has spoken critically of what it is like to be human, yet each has maintained the essential identity of the male experience.

  • Anxious States: Expressionism from Gauguin to Oliveira December 6, 2017-May 27, 2018 Mills College Art Museum, Back Gallery*
    Image: Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, Portrait of the Artist's Wife, 1922. Woodcut print on paper. Anxious States: Expressionism from Gauguin to Oliveira December 6, 2017-May 27, 2018 Mills College Art Museum, Back Gallery* Featuring works from the Mills College Art Museum’s collection, Anxious States follows the evolution of Expressionism as an artistic response to features of modernity—social anxiety, disruptive technologies, intractable wars—across a range of time periods and cultures. Expressionism describes an aesthetic style that developed from feelings of uncertainty, dread, and alienation that accompanied the industrialization of the 20th century. The works included in this exhibition can be read as political as well as emotional reactions to a rapidly changing world. The artists featured in Anxious States challenge the norms of what is visually appealing. Anxious States includes examples of woodblock prints, lithographs, drawing, etchings and engravings by some of the progenitors of German Expressionism including founding members of Neue Sachlichkeit (New ObJectivists), Die Brücke (The Bridge) and Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), as well as successors within the Symbolist and Bay Area Figurative movements. Linked by their stylistic qualities—angular and agitated lines, high contrast colors, primitivist appropriation—the featured artists produce visually jarring images that evoke a sense of inner chaos, trauma, and angst. Before and during World War II, Mills College played an important role in the promotion and preservation of German Expressionism and Bauhaus artworks. Beginning in 1935, MCAM’s director and distinguished art historian Alfred Neumeyer used his extensive network to introduce important and sometimes controversial European artists to Bay Area audiences.

  • “Degenerate” Art in Nazi Germany in 1937
    Bates 1 Evan Bates 6 December 2019 Everything is Curated: Effective Control of “Degenerate” Art in Nazi Germany In 1937, the Nazi party headed by Adolf Hitler collected all of the artwork deemed to be against their worldview from all of the galleries in Germany at the time. Expressionism, Surrealism and Dada, movements targeting emotion or abstraction as opposed to precise form, were most targeted in the collection of over 650 works. The exhibition that held these artworks, “Entartete Kunst,” or “Degenerate Art” in English, was held in Munich and across the street from the grand pillared white building holding the “Große Deutsche Kunstausstellung,” or “Great German Art Exhibition,” showcasing works that the Nazis found ideologically or artistically valuable. Both were curated by Hitler’s favorite artist at the time: Adolf Ziegler and the “Great German Art Exhibition” did happen to include many of his works. The “Great German Art Exhibition” was, unfortunately for the Nazi party, much less successful than its counterpart as 3 million visitors participated in the “Degenerate Art” exhibition, more than three times that of the “Great German Art Exhibition.” While it may initially seem to be an unwise decision to place all of the works that could potentially harm their ideology in one place, the Nazis were able to strip the art of its potential power and convince the people of its degeneracy. In carefully understanding and manipulating the audience before and during the “Entartete Kunst” exhibition, the Nazi Party effectively silences the potential voice of the works of this “degenerate art,” because without doing so the ideas could have toppled their power.
