Pablo Picasso – Max Beckmann. Man-Myth-World

Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973) and Max Beckmann (1884 - 1950) are key figures of modernism: with their art, they have shaped our view of the 20th century. At the same time, they made decisive contributions to redefining the possibilities and tasks of representational painting in the first half of the 20th century. In a wide-ranging exhibition in cooperation with the Sprengel Museum Hannover, the Von der Heydt Museum Wuppertal is now offering the first opportunity to compare the works of the two artists and thus their artistic attitudes and views.
