Käthe Kollwitz
Weimar Republic
Käthe Kollwitz is a Weimar Republic Expressionism artist. 34 works are cataloged here, principally at Museum of Modern Art.
Käthe Kollwitz was a German artist who worked with painting, printmaking and sculpture. Her most famous art cycles, including The Weavers and The Peasant War, depict the effects of poverty, hunger and war on the working class. Despite the realism of her early works, her art is now more closely associated with Expressionism. Kollwitz was the first woman not only to be elected to the Prussian Academy of Arts but also to receive honorary professor status.
