TOUCHED BY NATURE
Landscape Drawings of the Romantic Movement and the Present
7 September 2013 - 5 January 2014
A quotation from Ludwig Tieck’s famous artist novel “Franz Sternbalds Wanderings” (1798) is the source of the title of the exhibition. It paraphrases Romantic landscape art’s true concern: to meet nature subjectively.
The exhibition presents a representative selection of about 100 master drawings and 40 oil sketches from the first half of the 19th century, taken from the rich holdings of the Kunsthalle’s prints and drawings department. Amongst them are works by Caspar David Friedrich, Franz Catel, Johann Christoph Erhard, Friedrich Nerly and many others. These are shown in an exciting dialogue with the landscape drawings by contemporary artists, including Bettina Blohm, Manfred Holtfrerich, Nanne Meyer, Ugo Rondinone and Malte Spohr.
