AWCH member, art historian Dr. Frances Livings, has generously offered to give us a tour of an exhibition focusing on the German artist Paul Kleinschmidt (1883-1949) at Ernst Barlach Haus.

The show focuses on Kleinschmidt’s “opulent metropolitan paintings” of the 1920s and 1930s based on his experiences in Berlin, Amsterdam, southern France and New York City.

Deemed degenerate by the Nazis, Kleinschmidt was forbidden from painting and many of his paintings were destroyed by a World War II bomb. After the tour we will take a leisurely short walk through Jenisch Park to lunch at the restaurant Knips at the S-Bahn station Klein Flottbek.

On our walk Frances will tell us a bit about the park and its history and art institutions, to which the Ernst Barlach Haus belongs.

For those of you who would like to attend the Women’s Walk and Wine at 4 p.m. that day, there is a direct connection from Klein Flottbek on the S1 to Wellingsbüttel.

Cost:  7€ for group admission ticket. Please bring cash to the event.

Cancellation:  €10 fee for cancelation will be charged .If you cancel after the due date.
