The whole life
  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

    Elected to the Prussian Academy of Arts

    In 1931 Kirchner was made a member of the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin.
