Beskrivelse
After 1945, Hans Purrmann promoted the reawakening art and cultural life of the Palatinate with great commitment. One of his important contacts was the SPD politician and managing director of the Palatinate Secession, Willibald Gänger. Their correspondence, dating from 1950–1960, is now available for the first time. The letters, supplemented by six source texts, provide information about Purrmann’s involvement in the planning of the Palatinate Secession and describe his relationship with fellow painter Rolf Müller-Landau. They are a valuable addition to our understanding of 1950s art, providing many indirect glimpses of Purrmann’s network in post-war culture, as well as the Deutscher Künstlerbund’s projects and the dispute between abstraction and representation virulent at that time.
