The exhibition brings together paintings, drawings, sculptures and important graphic series that deal with the social upheavals of the first half of the 20th century and the existential experiences of the First World War.
With works by artists such as Max Beckmann, Otto Dix, George Grosz, Käthe Kollwitz, Else Lasker-Schüler and Wilhelm Lehmbruck, the period between 1900 and 1930 can be experienced as a phase of intense reflection and artistic confrontation with the traumas of war and social discord. The works in the exhibition are shown as fragments of an era which, in their complexity and contradictory nature, make the experience of a crisis-ridden time tangible and are given an oppressive topicality by the current wars and conflicts.
The presentation is complemented by showcases from Anselm Kiefer's "Opus Magnum" series, which deals with the victims of the Holocaust and forgetting and builds a bridge to contemporary art.
