Alexander Kanoldt was a German painter of the first half of the twentieth century. He is known as a painter, landscape and portrait painter, a representative of the New Materiality movement.
Alexander Kanoldt was one of the founders of the New Munich Art Association and the Blue Rider group. His style evolved from Neo-Impressionism to magic realism, to depicting plants, objects, landscapes and people in angular forms. During the Nazi regime, he tried to adapt to the styles in demand, but many of his works were confiscated as belonging to "degenerate art."
Kanoldt was a professor at the Berlin Academy of Art and director of the State School of Art in Berlin until his retirement in 1936.
George Grosz was a twentieth-century German painter, graphic artist, and cartoonist. In his work one can find features of various styles of avant-garde art, including Dadaism, Expressionism, and Futurism.
George Grosz drew in every style in a sharp-grotesque and satirical spirit, ridiculing the vices of society. The erotic theme, which occupied a prominent place in Gross's work, was executed in the same spirit.
Grosz devoted more than 20 years to teaching at the Art Students League of New York, and was elected an honorary member of the American and Berlin Academies for his outstanding services to the arts.
