Making Modernism @ The Royal Academy
12 November 2022 - 12 February 2023
Making Modernism is an exhibition devoted to pioneering women working in Germany in the early 1900s: Paula Modersohn-Becker, Kӓthe Kollwitz, Gabriele Münter and Marianne Werefkin, who were celebrated in their native homelands. This exhibition introduces their innovative paintings and works on paper, alongside key pictures by Erma Bossi, Ottilie Reylaender and Jacoba van Heemskerk.
The exhibition reframes subjects such as self-portraiture, still-life, the female body, depictions of childhood, landscapes and urban scenes through the experiences and perspectives of these ground-breaking artists, who were central to the development of radical new approaches to art in Europe.
