The Busch-Reisinger Museum at Harvard is the only museum in the western hemisphere devoted to the art of German-speaking Europe. Richly illustrated with archival photographs, architectural studies, and great works by such artists as Beckmann, Kandinsky, Klee, and Klimt from the Busch collections, this book-published on the occasion of the opening of Werner Otto Hall, new home of the Busch-Reisinger-mixes original documents from the Museum's past with new descriptions of its collections, architecture, and exhibition history. It includes a complete chronology from 1901, a list of exhibitions since 1930, and a selected bibliography of works on the Museum and its collections. |
