  • Painting Restorations for the Reopening of the Neue Nationalgalerie the Relocation and Exhibition of the Art Works in the Neue N
    Painting Restorations for the Reopening of the Neue Nationalgalerie The relocation and exhibition of the art works in the Neue Nationalgalerie’s presentation The Art of Society provided the initiative for the conservation and restoration of some 34 paintings and one piece of sculpture currently on display. This work was undertaken not only to best present the works in a pristine condition but above all, to conservationally secure some of the most important and unique works of art. From both art historical and art technological perspectives, the versatility of art at the beginning of 20th century was unlike that of any other epoch of our time. The transition from traditional methods and workshop practices to a freer working style, with artists employing the most diverse of techniques, materials and styles, pose particular challenges for contemporary conservators. Undertaking such a task demands both a well-trained eye and meticulous investigative research. The boundaries between an artist’s work and alterations by the artist or others are often blurred or cannot be immediately discerned. Painting in this period was characterised by abstract compositions, multistage creation processes, the use of new, commercially available products, the joy in experimentation as well as the employment of unusual material combinations. Consequently, it cannot be ruled out that phenomena related to painting techniques may already have led to changes or damage in the art works, not to mention improper handling and/or later revisions, reworkings and restorations. An in-depth analysis of the various components of a work is essential for its conservation and restoration. The Conservation Department at the Neue Nationalgalerie ‒ Hana Streicher, Ina Hausmann and Ella Dudew ‒ used current art technological methods to analyse the works and devise appropriate conservation measures.

  • Questioning German Expressionism: Nazi Reception and Contradiction in the Art of Käthe Kollwitz
    Questioning German Expressionism: Nazi Reception and Contradiction in the Art of Käthe Kollwitz Madeline Ullrich Dr. Juliet Bellow Department of Art History General University Honors Spring 2014 My research is a study of Käthe Kollwitz's reception by the Nazi regime from 1933-1945 rather than one that focuses on her artistic production. Despite remaining a practicing artist up to her death in 1945, few art historians correlate her career with significant political events of the 1930s and 40s, such as the rise of the Third Reich. Relegated a “degenerate” artist by Hitler, Kollwitz’s art was initially included Degenerate Exhibition of 1937; however, her work was quickly removed from this derogatory spectacle. In fact, the Nazis even appropriated her work for their own propaganda. Hence, my project is defined by a single term: contradictions. The inconsistent treatment of “degenerate” artists reflects contradictions in a variety of realms: Nazi ideology, the artistic movement of German Expressionism as a whole, and gender. Exploring these contradictions not only reveals more about Kollwitz at the end of her career, but also speaks to her position as a German artist in contemporary art historical discourse. Ullrich 1 Berlin, 1941. Picture a small, poorly lit apartment, cluttered with items one would see in the studio of an artist: clay, drop cloths, modeling blocks, and the like. This is the home of the renowned German artist Käthe Kollwitz, which also became her studio in 1940. When Otto Nagel, a close friend and fellow artist of Kollwitz, came to visit her in this modest apartment the following year, he found the usually calm and reserved Kollwitz beside herself with rage.

  • Lehmbruck Kolbe Mies Van Der Rohe
    Lehmbruck Kolbe Mies van der Rohe ENGLISH Lehmbruck Kolbe Mies van der Rohe Artificial Biotopes Three protagonists of early twentieth-century modernism are brought together in the exhibition. With their figurative sculptures, the artists Wilhelm Lehmbruck (1881–1919) and Georg Kolbe (1877–1947) created a new image of humankind that carried mental and natural, as well as abstract qualities. In the 1920s, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886–1969) designed radically modern architecture. His houses are functionally and aesthetically well-thought-out Gesamtkunstwerke. He saw an ideal in an open floor plan that no longer keeps rooms closed, but rather forms an organic system of walls and materials. Mies van der Rohe repeatedly integrated sculptures by both Lehmbruck and Kolbe into his main European work created in the 1920s. A famous example is the sculpture Morning by Kolbe in the Barcelona Pavilion of 1928/29, which has become an icon of modernism. During this period, an architectural language determined the genre of sculpture. A human body was built and composed of abstract geometric volumes. There was a fundamental search for a new relationship that could combine objective and functional architecture with autonomous sculpture. Mies van der Rohe was one of the few to consistently include figurative sculpture in his architectural concepts. Here, it is often interpreted as a surrogate for the inhabitant of the house, but its function is far more complex. For Mies van der Rohe, like other modernist artists, was inspired by a scientific, universal worldview. New findings, especially from the field of life sciences, led to a view of reality as an organic whole.

Book Condition: Neu. 274x230x25 mm. Neuware - In 1911 the German sculptor Wilhelm Lehmbruck created his unique 'Kneeling Woman' in Paris. The graceful woman immediately began to travel: to the Sonderbund exhibition at Cologne in 1912, to the New York Armory Show in 1913. This major piece of sculpture had has an amazingly influential affect ever since. It is 'the' work of art between Fin de Siècle and Expressionism, 'the' figure between the 19th and 20th century, a central symbol of modernism. The complex and varied history of this motif in the sculpture and drawing of its day is traced by this lavishly illustrated catalogue.

  • How the Museum of Modern Art in New York Canonised German Expressionism
    How the Museum of Modern Art in New York canonised German Expressionism Gregor Langfeld This paper will consider why and how the negative attitude towards German Expressionism in the USA changed abruptly in the second half of the 1930s.1 Alfred H. Barr Jr., the director of the Museum of Modern Art in New York (MoMA) at that time, played a crucial role in canonising this form of art. In order to gain an insight into this volte-face, it will be necessary to consider the reception of German Expressionism that preceded it. Although the movement was present in the USA from the beginning of the 1920s, for a long time German Expressionism had only very few supporters and collectors and it was generally met with disapproval. Obviously, various groups and institutions play a role in the art canonisation process: artists, gallery owners, private art collectors, patrons and art dealers all responded to modern art earlier than the museums. However, it was the museums in the first half of the twentieth century that eventually gave a real boost to the art forms that they patronised and their vision of them. MoMA, founded in 1929, marked an increasing institutionalisation and professionalisation of the modern art scene. The New York museum quickly became a role model, recognised as the most important museum of modern art in the USA. Crucially, it contributed to the establishment of the reputation of modern German art outside of Germany. Other groups on the American art scene, and the artists themselves, had supported this art even earlier and maintained close contacts with German artists, but they were unable to gain acceptance for their view.

    from the Detroit Institute of Arts Fig. 1 In 1905, four architecture students named Fritz Bleyl, Erich Heckel, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff formed the artist group Die Brücke (The Bridge) in Dresden. One year later, they issued a woodcut with this rallying cry to fellow artists: With faith in development and in a new generation of creators and appreciators we call together all youth. As youth, we carry the future and want to create for ourselves freedom of life and of movement against long-established older forces. Everyone who with directness and authenticity conveys that which drives him to creation, belongs to us.1 Die Brücke sought to overthrow the established order of art and society in turn-of-the-century Germany. Working together until 1913, its members developed a group painting style characterized by distorted forms, vigorous brushstrokes, and vivid colors (cover and fig. 2). Simultaneously, they experimented with the starkness of traditional German black-and-white printmaking (fig. 1). Following in the footsteps of the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) and the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863–1944), they focused on conveying psychological states and emotions rather than outward appearances. The young, self-trained artists of Die Brücke formulated the distinctive visual language and the fundamental premise of German Expressionism, one of the major movements in modern art. This exhibition of German Expressionist painting, sculpture, and works on paper, which is drawn exclusively from the extraordinary collection of the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), explores the entire breadth of this artistic movement from its beginnings around 1905 through 1950.
