Die Brücke foi um instituto de advocacy fundado em Munich, Germany, em 1911. O nome oficial era Die Brücke - Internationales Institut zur Organisierung der geistigen Arbeit.
“With faith in evolution, in a new generation of creators and connoisseurs, we call together all youth. And as youths, who embody the future, we want to free our lives and limbs from the long-established older powers. Anyone who renders his creative drive directly and genuinely is one of us.”
“..out of the necessity to forge a new path for the attempts at creating a new German art.”
“..shameless.. ..[and that] this weed overgrows and chokes all healthy life and always diminishes us in the name of the freedom of art.”
“Die Brücke held collective exhibits, which solidified the unity of the group. The visibility of the group can be attributed to Kirchner’s fighting spirit and Heckel’s organizational talent, for in the 8 years of their association, the group had over 70 group exhibits in Germany and abroad..”
“..we didn't have the intention at all of founding a new style.. .What we wanted, was a refusal of the outmoded, overly-cultivated art practices.”
“When die Brücke was shown at the infamous 'Degenerate Art' ('Entartete Kunst') show in Munich in 1937, Die Brücke's works became major victims under the Nazi's term of 'degenerate art': many of Heckel's works were confiscated, the works of Otto Mueller:Mueller were almost eliminated, and many Brücke works remain missing.”
