Kirchner Museum Davos Explores Artist's Use of Color in New Exhibition

The Kirchner Museum Davos is dedicating a new exhibition to Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's use of color, titled "A Rush of Colour." The show traces the journey of color from Kirchner's canvas to the laboratory, exploring the impact of pigment on the retina. Following the success of "Kirchner. Picasso," the museum now focuses on what makes Kirchner's work distinctive: his radical expressive use of color. The exhibition will also extend to the streets of Davos, with flags along the Promenade and Talstrasse, landscapes that inspired Kirchner's color world. The exhibition opens in summer, and the museum aims to captivate audiences and scientists alike with Kirchner's luminous contrasts and vibrating fields of color.
