The Artist Group Brücke and the Beginnings of Modernism
21.9 2024 – 9.3 2025
The artist group Brücke challenged the strict ideals and traditional values of the early 20th century. With vivid colours and simplified forms, they gave expression to internal feelings, rather than external reality. “German Expressionism: The Artist Group Brücke and the Beginnings of Modernism” brings together, for the first time in the Nordic region, Germany’s most important contribution to international modernism.
The artist group Brücke was founded in 1905 in Dresden by four young, rebellious architecture students. With their collective way of living and working, they radically broke with the prevailing strict moral norms and aesthetic ideals of the German Empire. Brücke’s art marks the beginning of German Expressionism, which would eventually be recognised as Germany’s most important contribution to international modernism.
In “German Expressionism: The Artist Group Brücke and the Beginnings of Modernism”, you will encounter paintings, drawings, watercolours, woodcuts, and sculptures by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Fritz Bleyl, Erich Heckel, and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, the four founders of Brücke, as well as by Emil Nolde, Max
