German Art History and Sitemap

August Friedrich Siegert (1786-1869)

German Art has a long and distinguished tradition in the visual arts, from the earliest known work of figurative art to its current output of contemporary art.
Germany has only been united into a single state since the 19th century, and defining its borders has been a notoriously difficult and painful process.
For earlier periods German art often effectively includes that produced in German-speaking regions including Austria, Alsace and much of Switzerland, as well as largely German-speaking cities or regions to the east of the modern German borders.

August Macke - At the Garden Table

Although tending to be neglected relative to Italian and French contributions from the point of view of the English-speaking world, German art has played a crucial role in the development of Western art, especially Celtic art, Carolingian art and Ottonian art.
From the development of Romanesque art, France and Italy began to lead developments for the rest of the Middle Ages, but the production of an increasingly wealthy Germany remained highly important.

The German Renaissance developed in rather different directions to the Italian Renaissance, and was initially dominated by the central figure of Albrecht Dürer and the early German domination of printing.
The final phase of the Renaissance, Northern Mannerism, was centred around the edges of the German lands, in Flanders and the Imperial capital of Prague, but, especially in architecture, the German Baroque and Rococo took up these imported styles with enthusiasm.
The German origins of Romanticism did not lead to an equally central position in the visual arts, but German participation in the many broadly Modernist movements following the collapse of Academic art have been increasing important.

Emil Nolde - Portrait of a Young Girl

L'arte Tedesca ha una lunga e distinta tradizione nelle arti visive, dalle prime opere d'arte figurativa conosciute all'attuale produzione di arte contemporanea.
La Germania è stata unita in un solo stato dal XIX secolo e la definizione dei suoi confini è stata notoriamente difficile e dolorosa.
Per periodi precedenti l'arte tedesca spesso include effettivamente quella prodotta nelle regioni di lingua tedesca tra cui Austria, Alsazia e gran parte della Svizzera, così come in gran parte città o regioni di lingua tedesca a est dei moderni confini tedeschi.
Anche se tende a essere trascurato rispetto ai contributi italiani e francesi dal punto di vista del mondo di lingua inglese, l'arte tedesca ha svolto un ruolo cruciale nello sviluppo dell'arte occidentale, in particolare dell'arte celtica, dell'arte carolingia e dell'arte ottoniana.

Paul Klee (1879-1940) Senecio, 1922

Dallo sviluppo dell'arte romanica, Francia e Italia iniziarono a guidare gli sviluppi per il resto del Medioevo, ma la produzione di una Germania sempre più ricca rimase di grande importanza.
Il Rinascimento tedesco si sviluppò in direzioni piuttosto diverse rispetto al Rinascimento italiano e inizialmente fu dominato dalla figura centrale di Albrecht Dürer e dal dominio tedesco della stampa.
La fase finale del Rinascimento, il Manierismo del Nord, fu centrata attorno ai bordi delle terre tedesche, nelle Fiandre e nella capitale imperiale di Praga, ma, soprattutto nell'architettura, il barocco tedesco e il rococò adottarono questi stili importati con entusiasmo.
Le origini tedesche del Romanticismo non hanno portato ad una posizione altrettanto centrale nelle arti visive, ma la partecipazione tedesca ai molti movimenti ampiamente modernisti in seguito al crollo dell'arte accademica è diventata sempre più importante.
