New Acquisitions to the Rifkind Center

This installation highlights selections from more than 100 artworks acquired in the last five years by LACMA’s Rifkind Center for German Expressionist Studies, which houses a unique collection focused on prints and drawings produced in German-speaking Europe from 1900 to 1933. New Acquisitions to the Rifkind Center reflects the Center’s ongoing engagement with the work of the Expressionist group Die Brücke and with major modern German artists such as Max Beckmann and George Grosz. The display also reveals an expanded commitment to showcase more works by women and international artists active in Germany, with works by makers including Mihály Biró, Jacoba van Heemskerck, Jeanne Mammen, and Paula Modersohn-Becker.

This installation was organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
