CAFÉ CULTURE: Art & Society in Early 20th Century Austria and Germany

September 21st 2006 23:52
A really cute exhibition is opening this Autumn season in New York at the Galerie St. Etienne opens the with an exhibition exploring the impact of the café on the development of the visual arts in fin-de-siècle Austria and Weimar-era Germany. It's a social development that I've never really thought about, but I'd be very interested to know what effect the exhibition suggests that cafe culture had during this period.

CAFÉ CULTURE: Art & Society in Early 20th Century Austria and Germany, scheduled to run from September 19 though to November 25, will feature artifacts relating specifically to cafés (such as furniture, posters and artists’ depictions of the café and cabaret milieu), as well as works more loosely documenting the creative interchanges that this institution inspired. Among the artists to be included are Max Beckmann, George Grosz, Erich Heckel, Josef Hoffmann, E.L. Kirchner, Gustav Klimt, Oskar Kokoschka, Adolf Loos, Jeanne Mammen, Emil Nolde, Hermann Max Pechstein, Christian Schad, Egon Schiele and Bruno Voigt
