Kollwitz meets colleagues

The INTERVENTION format, which was successfully launched last year, will be continued in 2024 – this year under the motto “Kollwitz meets colleagues”.

From 23 March to 23 June 2024, the museum will be presenting works from its collection by the sculptor WILHELM LOTH (1920-1993), who turned to Käthe Kollwitz for advice as a young, budding artist in the late 1930s. She encouraged him to devote himself fully to art. Her work and her influence had a lasting effect on the young Loth and references to Kollwitz can be found in his work.
