Discover two extraordinary artistic worlds – and what surprisingly connects them. "Kirchner. Picasso" sheds light on hitherto little-noticed connections and differences in the work of the two exceptional talents: from the exploration of identity, body, and gender to the role of the artist in a changing society – the exhibition invites you to discover parallels and contrasts in the works of the two artists. The focus here is on painting, complemented by selected sculptures, graphic works, and drawings.
The exhibition will be officially opened with the Vernissage on February 15, 2026.
