Das Junge Rheinland

Zusatztext

The foundation of the Young Rhineland in the spring of 1919 marks the start of extensive political activities amongst artists in Düsseldorf after the World War I. Already during the war in 1918 there was a call to 45 Rhineland artists demanding the merger of the entire young Rhineland artist community. Up until 1933 the association numbers over 400 artists, whose aim is to create exhibition options locally and nationally as well as "visibility" for young art from the region. Over the course of the years The Young Rhineland develops into a platform for artists and intellectuals of various generations, trends and styles. On the occasion of the centenary of the founding of The Young Rhineland the contributions offer exciting new perspectives in the area of artist network research.
