KÄTE STEINITZ. VON HANNOVER NACH LOS ANGELES
In the organizer's words:
The exhibition presents for the first time the comprehensive pictorial work of the artist Käte Steinitz from seven decades. Although Steinitz is known in the historiography of Hanover as an important figure in Kurt Schwitters' circle, her own artistic work has remained virtually unknown. Based on the (partial) artistic estate that her heirs donated to the Sprengel Museum Hannover from the USA in 2018, a retrospective is now being created that sheds light on Steinitz's multifaceted work as an artist, photographer and author. Around 150 works and 40 documents are on display in six rooms, tracing her life and work. The majority of the exhibited works, in particular her photographic works, some of which have only survived as negatives, have never been published before.
A monograph of the same name will be published in German and English by Hirmer Verlag.
Supported by the Ernst von Siemens Art Foundation
