Special exhibition from November 6, 2021 till January 9, 2022

The exhibition at the Kollwitz Museum attempts to present the artist in these essential moments, leaving aside the humorous typifications executed at the time for marketing purposes.

The Kollwitz Museum presents about 60 works, including numerous heliogravures and partly colored drawings.
