Saturday 7. December 2024 — Sunday 16. March 2025
Lise Gujer - A New Way of Painting - Exhibition at Brücke-Museum Berlin

In the summer of 1922, Lise Gujer (1893-1967) met the Brücke artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner in the Swiss climatic health resort of Davos. Shortly after meeting him, she began to produce large-format tapestries based on his designs, which inspired Kirchner as a ‘new way of painting’. The colourful and artistically complex textiles depict the Swiss mountains with their animals and people. Some carpets are also dedicated to the theme of dance. The close collaboration between Gujer and Kirchner continued until Kirchner’s suicide in June 1938. More than 10 years later, in the early 1950s, Gujer continued her work on the loom, moving away from Kirchner’s preparatory drawings and creating new variations on previous motifs. The exhibition shows more than twenty of her tapestries as well as numerous preparatory drawings by Kirchner. …”
