"The painter saw the city from here." Wolfgang Koeppen and Caspar David Friedrich

Koeppen Days 2024

Caspar David Friedrich's drawings and paintings are part of the city's cultural memory. Wolfgang Koeppen, born in Greifswald in 1906, makes explicit reference to Friedrich in his literary texts. For Koeppen, the memory of Friedrich and his home town of Greifswald is often linked to the view of the harbor. The exhibition explores these and other references between the two artists and presents a new look at Koeppen's work and his memories of Friedrich and Greifswald as part of the Koeppen Days 2024.

With Caspar David Friedrich through the year 2024 - we'll be there!

Organizer: Wolfgang Koeppen Gesellschaft e.V. in cooperation with the Wolfgang Koeppen Archive
