Masterpieces of the Graphic Collection

Berlinische Galerie, Berlin

The exhibition provides a rare opportunity to see the masterworks of the collection, which is dating from the beginning of the 20th century to the present, because they can usually not be shown for conservation reasons. Arranged in a chronological order, to a large extent, the works on paper are accompanied by painting, sculpture, and photography.
