Die Brucke

Dresden, 1905 – 1913

Die Brücke (The Bridge) is a group of German Expressionist artists, founded by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff and Erich Heckel. The movement was not intended to be a style, but a bridge toward a better future. The group's work is characterized by its intensely emotional and violent imagery, depicting landscapes, nudes, and carnival performers in strong colors and broad forms. They also revived the tradition of German woodcuts as a form of personal expression. Other artists associated with the movement included Emil Nolde, Max Pechstein, Otto Mueller and Edvard Munch. The group was disbanded due to artistic disagreements and the onset of World War I.
