The Art of Society 1900-1945

THE COLLECTION OF THE NEUE NATIONALGALERIE, BERLINThe Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin, the last building designed by Mies van der Rohe, has been closed a full six years for refurbishment. To mark its reopening the museum is presenting the highlights of its classical modernist collection under the title "The Art of Society, 1900-1945". Visionary, critical, resigned or utopian, the paintings and sculptures bear witness to art's dialogue with prevailing social conditions - from the German Empire to the First World War, the Weimar Republic and ultimately National Socialism. The catalogue documenting all works in the exhibition traces the major artistic tendencies during the first half of the 20th century in thirteen chapters. "The Art of Society, 1900-1945" offers a renewed encounter with works by Edvard Munch, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Tamara de Lempicka, Lotte Laserstein, Otto Dix, George Grosz, Max Beckmann, and many others that is as captivating as it is illuminating.
