"Max Liebermann und Emil Nolde. Gegner und Gartenfreunde" - exhibition Liebermann Villa, Berlin, Germany

The Liebermann Villa near Berlin dedicates its actual show to two very different artists: The expressionist painter Emil Nolde and the impressionist Max Liebermann fell out with each other due to their differing artistic concepts culminating in Nolde's exclusion from the Berliner Secession group in 1910. At the same time their intense passion for the garden vegetation, the diversitiy of colourful flowers or the effects of sunlight on their garden's landscape became the favourite topic for each of them. The show allows a direct comparison of these two very diverse artistic ideas.
