Catalogue published on the occasion of the similar titled exhibition organized by the SMK National Gallery of Denmark, Copenhagen, and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (Sep 4 - Dec 5, 2021), in collaboration with Die Brücke Museum Berlin. The work of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Emil Nolde is famous for its unconventional portrayals of people, landscapes and objects rendered in bold colors and energetic brushstrokes. What is the relationship between the two Expressionists’ distinctive visual style and the colonial reality from which it emerged? This major exhibition zoomed in on the stories behind the subjects portrayed in their work. It examined Kirchner's and Nolde's art within the context of the history and ideologies of the time, and explored its ties with people, cultures and objects from outside Europe. How do we look at these works today from a postcolonial perspective?
