Gabriele Münter was at the forefront of modern art in early 20th-century Europe. Constantly experimenting, she revitalized landscape, still life, and portrait painting, transforming everyday subjects into bold, original works. Rather than imitating reality, she sought to “convey an essence,” offering an alternative to modernist movements that favored pure abstraction.

This exhibition highlights Münter’s lifelong commitment to subjects rooted in daily life and shaped by travel, place, and community. Viewed as a whole, her work reveals a life defined by curiosity—one rooted in local encounters yet profoundly informed by a belief in our shared humanity.
