Lovis Corinth’s significance for modern art cannot be overestimated. Even during his lifetime, this virtuoso painter (1858–1925) was one of the best-known figures on the Berlin art scene. In 1900, he moved from Munich to the capital of the German Empire. “It only really began in Berlin,” Corinth is said to have remarked about his success story on the Spree.

The exhibition focuses on Corinth’s meteoric career and his influence on the city’s art scene, as well as his private life. Less well-known aspects further illustrate just how modern the artist was in his painting, lifestyle and thinking: Corinth’s painting school, where he taught mainly women, and his work for the Berlin theatre.
