About The Artist
Karl Schmidt-Rottluff (1884–1976) was a German painter and printmaker, born in Rottluff. A founding member of the Die Brücke group in Dresden, he played a pivotal role in the German Expressionist movement. Schmidt-Rottluff's art, exemplified in works like "Nude Girl with Cat" (1910), features bold colors, dynamic forms, and a focus on emotional expression. Influenced by African and Oceanic art, his work evolved from early Fauvist influences to a distinctive style characterized by angular lines and intense, non-naturalistic color. Despite facing persecution during the Nazi regime, Schmidt-Rottluff continued to create art and later became associated with the post-war Expressionist movement. His contributions to German Expressionism and his dedication to avant-garde principles solidify his place as a significant figure in 20th-century art.
