„Meine Malerexistenz hat ziemlich aufgehört“
Karl Schmidt-Rottluffs Briefe an Paula Risch, 1935–1944
This volume presents 24 letters and postcards from Karl Schmidt-Rottluff to Paula Risch from the years 1935 to 1944 and places them in their historical context. Compared to the few other published autographs by the artist from this period, the collection made available here for the first time to researchers and a broad public is characterised by the astonishing openness with which Schmidt-Rottluff reports on his artistic work, political events and his state of mind. Thus, it is a revealing source for his life and work under National Socialism.
