Käthe Schmidt Kollwitz, Käthe Kollwitz, or Kathe Kollwitz, the famous German, 'Expressionist' painter, printmaker, and sculptor, was born in a wealthy family on July 08, 1867, in Kaliningrad, Russia. She was the fifth child of Karl and Katharina Schmidt. The 'religious' & the 'socialist' teachings of her maternal grandfather, Julius Rapp, and the early death of her brother, Benjamin, were the key influencers of Kollwitz initially.
From a very early age of twelve years, she started learning drawing and copying plaster casts. She attended the Berlin School of Art in 1884. Here, she got to see the works of Max Klinger that inspired her to the core. In 1888, the artist joined the Woman's Art School at Munich. Here she recognized her immense aptitude for 'Graphic Art' rather than painting.
In 1891, Kollwitz married Karl, a philanthropist doctor, and settled in a large house, but in a poor locality of Berlin, to serve the bereft. The couple was blessed with two sons, Hans in 1892 & Peter in 1896. From 1898 to 1903, Kathe taught at the Berlin School of Women Artists. Her works depicted the plight of middle-class & less fortunate people around her. She recorded the struggling stories graphically through drawing, etching, lithography, and woodcuts. Kollwitz's first major work, "The Weavers (1898)," a series of three lithographs ("Poverty," "Conspiracy," & "Death") and three etchings ("March of the Weavers," "Riot," and "The End"), was inspired by the Gerhart Hauptmann's play, "The Weavers." She received a gold medal for it at Dresden, in 1899, followed by the one at London, in 1900.
In 1904, she traveled extensively to Paris and Rome. In the meantime, Kathe's works on social themes continued, as is evident in her series of woodcuts, "The Peasant War (1903-08)." While working on this series, the artist attended the sculpturing classes at Académie Julian, Paris, France. In 1907, she won a study prize to Florence, Italy, for her etching, "Outbreak," from the series.
After all the critical acclaim, Kollwitz returned to Germany and started teaching at the Berlin School of Arts. She also joined the group, 'Berlin Secession.' By this time, her style had moved towards 'Expressionism' from her earlier taste for 'Naturalism,' as in "Runover (1910)" and "Self-Portrait (1912)." Between 1908 and 1911, Kollwitz drew 14 drawings for a weekly magazine, 'Simplicissimus.' She started sculpturing in 1910.
October 14, 1914, Kollwitz lost her son, Peter, in World War I. She made a woodcut, "Gedenkenblatt für Karl Liebknecht" during 1919-20. In 1920, the artist was honored with the first woman professorship at the Prussian Academy of Arts, Berlin. In 1922-23, the socialist, pacifist, communist, and a war depressed mom, Kathe, produced a series of woodcuts, "War," which included "The Sacrifice," "The Volunteers," "The Parents," "The Widow I," "The Widow II," "The Mothers," and "The People." In 1924, she also completed her three most famous posters, "Germany's Children Starving," "Bread," and "Never Again War." She did "Proletariat" in 1925.
When National-Socialist regime came to power in 1933, they destroyed and confiscated most of Kathe's works, labeling them as 'degenerate art,' while forcing her to resign from the academy. By mid-1930s, she finished her final set of lithographs, "Death." To commemorate the sacrifice of all the young soldiers during war, she made a life-size figure, "The Grieving Parents (1932)," at Belgium.
Kathe Kollwitz left Berlin in 1943, after the death of her ill husband in 1940, and that of her grandson, Peter, in 1942, during the World War II. Soon after her move, the same year, her house in Berlin was bombed, destroying most of her portfolios. Kollwitz initially moved to Nordhausen and then to Moritzburg, near Dresden. Here, she took refuge in the estate of Prince Ernst Heinrich of Saxony. Kollwitz died on April 22, 1945, in Moritzburg. She was cremated and buried in Berlin with her husband, brothers, and sisters. Today, Kathe Kollwitz is regarded as one of the most important graphic artists of the twentieth century.
