We are open daily between 11 am and 4 pm<\/strong> – except for the closing days on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.<\/p>\n

Until January 9, 2022<\/strong>, we are presenting a special exhibition on the draftsman Heinrich Zille<\/strong> with rarely shown works from a private collection in Berlin.<\/p>\n

You will now find K\u00e4the Kollwitz’s late work in a new hanging in our beautiful Kuppelsaal, which provides the wall space to show her last two major cycles – “War” <\/em>and “Death”<\/em> – together in one room. A haunting and moving presentation.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”6463″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” css=”.vc_custom_1640009479972{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 20px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 20px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”6465″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1640009533987{margin-right: 40px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-right-width: 40px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1640009549246{margin-right: 40px !important;border-right-width: 40px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

BETWEEN SUCCESS AND EXILE
\nLotte Jacobi & Lotte Reiniger<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Impressive works by the well-known photographer Lotte Jacobi<\/strong> are presented, who photographed numerous famous personalities of Berlin’s cultural life in the 1920s, including portraits of K\u00e4the Kollwitz and her nieces.<\/p>\n

Silhouette artist and filmmaker Lotte Reiniger<\/strong> released her first feature-length animated film, “The Adventures of Prince Achmed”,<\/em> in 1926, putting her well ahead of even Walt Disney. Produced in Potsdam from 1923 to 1926, the film enjoyed great success far beyond Berlin..<\/p>\n

After the National Socialists came to power, Jacobi and Reiniger, like many of their colleagues, went into exile. Reiniger’s silhouettes, like Jacobi’s photographic portraits, are an indispensable part of Berlin during the Weimar Republic – their works, mainly from this period, are presented together for the first time in an exhibition.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_separator][vc_single_image image=”6733″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1640010026516{margin-right: 40px !important;margin-left: 20px !important;border-right-width: 40px !important;border-left-width: 20px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1640014102717{margin-right: 40px !important;margin-left: 20px !important;border-right-width: 40px !important;border-left-width: 20px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”]Lotte Reiniger, 1926<\/strong> Stadtmuseum T\u00fcbingen \u00a9 VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn 2022<\/p>\n
