Glamour! : From It-Girl to Glittering Lady – Depictions of Women in the Late Weimar Republic
GERMANY BERLIN • Georg-Kolbe-Museum • 17 February - 12 May 2008 |
 |
This show is devoted to the image of women in the period between 1928 and 1933. In five thematic clusters about fashion, movies and actresses, women in society, athletics and the “Georg-Schicht Prize for the Loveliest German Portrait of a Woman”, this exhibition seeks to answer the question of what brought about the change in the depiction of women and how this change showed itself.
Alongside nearly forgotten artists such as Lotte Laserstein or Lieselotte Friedlaender, works by Christian Schad, Tamara de Lempicka, Willy Jaeckel, Leo von König, Ernesto de Fiori, Rudolf Schlichter, Yva and Jeanne Mammen are presented.
