"German Expressionism 1900-1930: Masterpieces from the Neue Gallery Collection" Exhibition
Neue Galerie
This event has ended.
Neue Galerie New York presents German Expressionism 1900-1930: Masterpieces from the Neue Galerie Collection, an exhibition of prized works that will examine themes of primitivism and modernity, two poles of Expression- ism that artists employed to free themselves from the academic conventions of the nineteenth century. The engagement of these artists with the zeitgeist of the early twentieth century in Germany led them to paint emotionally charged, often contrasting scenes. On display will be both lively depictions of cabaret and circus culture, as well as cityscapes of lonely, alienating Berlin streets.
