Kunsthalle Mannheim had one of the first collections of Expressionism in Germany's museums – until most of the works previously acquired were confiscated by the National Socialists in 1937. The significance of Expressionism for the museum's history is now being explored for the first time in this catalogue, which presents the outstanding collection of paintings, prints and sculptures, as well as high-quality loans of previously confiscated works and masterpieces from private collections in Mannheim. It includes works by Erich Heckel, Alexej von Jawlensky, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Oskar Kokoschka, Otto Mueller, Max Pechstein, Emil Nolde, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, Maria Uhden, Milly Steger and Gabriele Münter, with a particular focus on sculptor Wilhelm Lehmbruck and his close patron Sally Falk. The publication offers a detailed insight into the history of this fascinating stylistic epoch in Mannheim and introduces important works and their place within the Kunsthalle's collection.
