Derweil im Leben von Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
Das ganze Leben1925–1926
Declines to found a new group
In Berlin Kirchner met Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, who wanted him to form a new artists’ group; Kirchner politely refused.
1925–1926
A trip to Germany: Frankfurt, Chemnitz, Berlin
At the end of 1925 Kirchner went to Germany, visiting Frankfurt, Chemnitz, where his mother lived, and Berlin. Back in Frauenkirch he wrote to Dr. Hagemann in March 1926 that he was glad to see the old pictures by Rembrandt and Dürer again, while of the moderns hardly anything had gripped him.
1926–1927
Death of Albert Müller and a memorial exhibition
In December 1926 Kirchner’s close friend Albert Müller died of typhoid fever together with his wife Anni; in 1927 Kirchner organised a memorial exhibition for Müller at the Kunsthalle Basel.
1927
A major exhibition in the Davos schoolhouse
In 1927 a major exhibition of Kirchner’s work was held in the schoolhouse in Davos, with positive reviews.
1929
An open letter to the Rot-Blau group
In 1929 Kirchner was forced to distance himself from Rot-Blau after they pledged allegiance to him, which greatly upset him; in “An open letter to the Basel Red-Blue group” in no. 5 of Das Kunstblatt he stated that he was not their patron.
1931
Elected to the Prussian Academy of Arts
In 1931 Kirchner was made a member of the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin.
