Museum Barberini meets Potsdam Museum

Two exhibitions in Potsdam this spring shed light on Impressionist art in Brandenburg, Berlin, and the German-speaking world. The Impressionist artist Theo von Brockhusen (1882–1919) painted vividly colored panoramas of the Brandenburg lake landscape. The monographic exhibition dedicated to him, Theo von Brockhusen. Colors in the Light, at the Potsdam Museum also presents works by Lovis Corinth, Käthe Kollwitz, and Karl Hagemeister—as well as Max Liebermann—who helped establish modern art in Berlin and Brandenburg.

At the Museum Barberini, starting from Max Liebermann as a central figure, the focus is on additional artists who significantly shaped the avant-garde in Germany. Visiting both exhibitions broadens the perspective on the period from the late 19th century up to the First World War.
