"Kollwitz's graphic testimony to hunger, grief, and political struggle is reframed through Berlin's working-class history and archival networks."
Drawing from major print series including Peasant War, War, and Death, this exhibition situates Käthe Kollwitz's graphic work within the social fabric of early twentieth-century Berlin. Rare lithographs, woodcuts, and preparatory drawings appear alongside archival letters, police censorship files, and workers' publications, illuminating how Kollwitz's images circulated as political testimony. The show addresses her legacies in East and West German cultural memory and contemporary social practice.
