Streifzüge Durch Die Moderne: Die Graphische Sammlung Der Kunsthalle Mannheim

The Graphic Collection of the Kunsthalle Mannheim is one of the first systematic collections of modern art worldwide. Since its founding in 1911, the focal points—expressionism, new objectivity, and works on paper by sculptors—have been consistently expanded upon, parallel with the respective current artistic developments. Despite great losses through confiscations by the National Socialists, a high-quality and multifaceted group of works has remained intact. With nearly 500 illustrations, this catalogue presents a select cross-section of this unique collection.
