The Caspar David Friedrich Year is entering the next round: The Alte Nationalgalerie Berlin shows how the Romantic artist’s art was first discovered, then forgotten and then rediscovered again and again.
The wave of exhibitions celebrating the 250th birthday of Caspar David Friedrich, which is rolling diagonally across the country this year, namely from Hamburg to Dresden, has now reached its climax in Berlin. The exhibitions in the three cities with the largest German holdings of Friedrich’s paintings, each with a completely different design, are guaranteed to be so-called blockbusters.
