Sobre

Welcome to the Paula Modersohn-Becker Museum – the first museum in the world to be dedicated to the work of a female painter! The masterpieces on display illustrate the artist’s extraordinary importance as a pioneer of modern painting. Situated on the picturesque Böttcherstrasse in the heart of the Hanseatic city of Bremen, famous for its ornate brick architecture, the museum building was commissioned by the merchant and patron Ludwig Roselius, who owned a considerable collection of works by Paula Modersohn-Becker. The building’s architect, Bernhard Hoetger, designed a unique building that is considered one of the most important examples of Expressionist architecture in Germany; it was opened in 1927 as a museum. Today the museum provides an overview of every phase of the artist’s oeuvre. The museum also houses the most extensive collection of works by Bernhard Hoetgers, beginning with sculptures that were still influenced by Auguste Rodin and continuing on to his more independent late period. Jenny Holzer’s installation For Paula Modersohn-Becker has been on permanent display since May 2005.
