Carl Grossberg – business-minded, magical, visionary

This exhibition at the Von der Heydt Museum celebrates the rediscovery of one of the leading painters of New Objectivity: Carl Grossberg (1894–1940). His extensive body of work, created over a period of nearly 20 years, owes its status to his engagement with architecture and industry. With its formal clarity and rigor, it expresses a new, photographic way of seeing and reflects the technical progress of the first third of the 20th century. The minimalist compositions encourage us to critically examine industrial progress and its effects on people (on view through August 30).
