Paula Modersohn-Becker (1876-1907) is a major figure in the history of German Expressionism, yet despite her importance to art history, her work has never before been the subject of a museum retrospective in the United States. While her paintings and drawings have appeared in group shows at museums and galleries, and there is even a Paula Modersohn-Becker Museum in her hometown of Bremen, “Paula Modersohn-Becker: Ich bin Ich / I Am Me” marks the first full-scale presentation devoted to the artist in this country. In the course of her brief career - which was cut short at the young age of 31 because of a postpartum embolism - Modersohn-Becker produced more than 700 paintings and over 1,000 drawings.
In this video, exhibition curator Jill Lloyd brings you through highlights of this landmark exhibition presented at Neue Galerie New York.
