The artist group Brücke is Germany’s most important contribution to international modernism. The group was formed in Dresden in 1905 by the four young architecture students Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Otto Bleyl, Erich Heckel and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff. Together they developed a painting style with vivid colours, simplified forms and large colour fields that express internal feelings, rather than reproducing an external reality.
