Sinossi

Interwar Germany’s prevailing artistic movement encapsulates the hardship and hedonism of the Weimar Republic

The ramifications of World War I called for new visual depictions of German social realities: the hardship on the one hand and the zest for life of the “Golden Twenties” on the other. This dichotomy resulted in the New Objectivity movement. Unsentimental, sober, specific and purist, it depicted the world in an objective, realistic manner. Many of Weimar Germany’s most notable artists adopted this style, and the resulting works capture the era in perpetuity: an unsettling panorama when viewed from the present day. This first exhibition of German New Objectivity in Austria includes over 150 treasures of New Objectivity from renowned museums and private collections.
Artists include: Max Beckmann, Heinrich Maria Davringhausen, Otto Dix, George Grosz, Karl Hubbuch, Grethe Jürgens, Lotte Laserstein, Felix Nussbaum, Gerta Overbeck, Christian Schad, Rudolf Schlichter.
