_2026-08-19 · German Postwar Modern_

Together with George Seurat Paul Signac was the major force behind Neo-impressionism, both on an artistic and a theoretical level. After the anti-academic impressionists, Signac reintroduced science to painting and sought to refine what the former had pioneered, namely the depiction of everyday scenes: by its very nature Pointillism involves a lot more precision and patience and Signac added to it…

_2026-08-17 · German Postwar Modern_

The reception of Hannes Meyer’s tenure as director of the Bauhaus between 1928 and 1930 for a long time has been dominated by discussions surrounding his political orientation and the right-wing attacks on the school. These discussions in fact blocked the engagement with the substance of his directorship and how he shaped the Bauhaus and its curriculum. In recent years Philipp Oswalt has been…

_2026-08-14 · German Postwar Modern_

In recent years local research on Brutalism has produced a number of very informative publications that zoom in on the Brutalist heritage in countries, federal states or cities. As a result, the plurality of Brutalism and its local idioms have become visible and contribute to a more differentiated picture of Brutalist architecture. A recent addition to the local historiography of Brutalism is…
