Today in History: Munich Secession Movement formed in 1892
In Munich, a group of some 100 artists split off from the mainstream Munich Artists’ Association and founded the Munich Secession (“Verein Bildender Künstler Münchens e.V. Secession”). The group’s progressive outlook had an eye toward exhibiting at the upcoming World’s Columbian Exposition. They called for a transformation in the ideas of what constitutes art and promoted the idea of an artists’ freedom to present works directly to the public. Among the circle were such renowned artists as Peter Behrens, Josef Block, Lovis Corinth, Max Liebermann, Franz von Stuck, and Fritz von Unruh.
