SUMMARY:The Art of Goodbye: German Expressionism
DESCRIPTION:Credit: Ernst Ludwig Kirchner\, Street\, Berlin\, 1913\, Museum of Modern Art.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Art of Goodbye explores how artists have depicted loss throughout history. From ancient Greek funerary urns to medieval crucifixion altar pieces and haunting World War I trench scenes\, the program delves into how different eras confronted grief. Each session highlights the artists\, their works\, and the societies that shaped or resisted these expressions of sorrow. Together\, we’ll trace how art has served as a means to understand\, express\, and sometimes transcend loss. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: Free. Registration required.  \n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVirtual EventA Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis evening’s session focuses on how German Expressionist artists of the early twentieth century confronted the turmoil of their time—war\, social upheaval\, and existential dread—by rejecting traditional beauty in favor of distorted forms\, bold colors\, and provocative imagery. \n\n\n\nThe Art of Goodbye is a series in Death Education led by Harry Weil\, Green-Wood’s Vice President of Education and Public Programs who holds a PhD in art history and has lectured extensively on modern and contemporary art. \n\n\n\nFree. Registration required. Please consider a donation to the Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year.
