12. Twilight over Berlin
Masterworks from the Nationalgalerie, 1905–1945

13. Twilight over Berlin
Masterworks from the Nationalgalerie, 1905–1945
The beginning of the 20th century saw an
artistic flourishing in Germany embodied in
the works of the great Expressionists, and
later in that of the innovative artists of the
Weimar Republic.
The Nazi regime sought to put an end to
this artistic activity – branding it
“degenerate art” – and many of the artists
had to flee Germany, creating an avant-
garde exiled community whose influence
also reached pre-State Israel.
Marking 50 years of German-Israeli
diplomatic relations, the exhibition displays
masterpieces from the Nationalgalerie by
Kirchner, Nolde, Schmidt-Rottluff, Dix,
Kandinsky, Klee, and Beckmann, among
others.

14. we the people
New in Contemporary Art

15. we the people
New in Contemporary Art
A new exhibition of international
art exploring the collective’s role in
society, the empowering of the
individual, and the aggregation of
a communal “we.” Paintings,
sculpture, photography, and video
works touch on subjects such as
immigration, religion, and
nationality, allowing for historical
reflection and critical discussion.
The exhibition takes its name from
one of its central works, We the
People by Vietnamese artist Danh
Vo, a 1:1 reproduction of the
Statue of Liberty in 300 pieces ‫־‬
four of which are displayed here.

16. Dürer and Friends German Renaissance Prints
Prints by Albrecht Dürer (Nuremberg,
1471–1528), ranging from early to
mature works, are the focus of this
exhibition.
The artist’s brilliant originality,
consummate technique, and
intellectual scope made him one of
the most influential artists of the
German Renaissance.

17. Man Ray – Human Equations

18. Man Ray – Human Equations
After fleeing Paris for Hollywood in
the late 1940s, Man Ray created
“Shakespearean Equations,” a series
of paintings he considered to be the
pinnacle of his creative oeuvre.
These paintings were inspired by his
own innovative photographs of
three-dimensional mathematical
objects, and they are displayed for
the first time in Israel, together with
the photographs and the original
plaster, wood, papier-mache, and
string models from the Institut Henri
Poincare in Paris.

19. A Brief History of Humankind
from the Collections of The Israel Museum, Jerusalem

20. An odyssey into the evolution of humankind,
from prehistory to modern times. Inspired by
Yuval Noah Harari’s bestselling book, the
exhibition presents pivotal objects that
illuminate the unfolding of civilization – from
the first signs of the use of fire some 800,000
years ago and the first human-made tools,
through the earliest evidence of the
agricultural revolution, the invention of writing,
and the earliest coins, up to Albert Einstein’s
Special Theory of Relativity and the revolution
it caused in our worldview.
