Modernist Masterpieces: The Haubrich Collection at Museum Ludwig

To the people of Cologne it seemed like a message from a better world, when Josef Haubrich handed over his treasures to the city of Cologne in 1946. This art was once thought lost. Now it toured in a triumphant wandering exhibition through Germany and Europe. Today it is housed in the Museum Ludwig. It is seen as one of the best collections of Expressionism, but also takes in New Objectivity and other trends. After many years the collection can finally be admired in its own context once again. 84 masterpieces are presented on colour plates and commented on, including works by Beckmann, Chagall, Dix, Grosz, Heckel, Jawlensky, Kirchner, Kokoschka, Mataré, Otto Müller and Nolde. The list of works records all the work in colour illustrations and explains the results of provenance research. An extremely informative lexicon of people and institutions with whom Haubrich had contact concludes this collection catalogue.--Publisher.
