Käthe Kollwitz
getekend leven
by Käthe Kollwitz and Georg Bussmann
Het werk van de Duitse kunstenares Käthe Kollwitz (1867-1945) wordt gekenmerkt door sociaal engagement en persoonlijke ervaringen. Twee tragedies zijn van grote invloed geweest: haar zoon die sneuvelde in de Eerste Wereldoorlog en het feit dat ze door de nazi?s werd verdreven van de Berlijnse academie. Een terugkerend thema in haar werk is de moeder die haar kinderen (tevergeefs) probeert te beschermen tegen het naderende onheil. In deze expositie zijn tekeningen, grafische werken en enkele bronzen te zien. Exhibition: Museum Belvédère, Heerenveen, The Netherlands (18.06-25.09.2016).

Work Description
Social injustices, hunger, war, sorrow and death - these are the subjects most frequently associated with Käthe Kollwitz (1867-1945). That nude representations also featured in all areas and phases of her work is less well known. The artist dedicated drawings, printed works on paper and sculptures to this subject. Initially these works were close to the symbolism of Max Klinger, and later developed into coloured prints that are on a par with the nudes of French modernism. And finally, there are the drawings and sculptures that reveal her enthusiasm for the work of Rodin and Maillol. Exhibition: Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie Regensburg, Germany (24.08.-03.11.2013). 0.
