A tour of the art galleries in Germany will show you the history of its growth in the European art scene.
Germany greatly contributed to the development of Western art particularly Celtic Art, Carolingian Art, and Ottonian Art.
You will also see magnificent representations of traditions that influenced the style and approach of German fine art.
These traditions include Baroque Art and Neoclassicism. You will marvel at the works of Bernardo Bellotto, Gianbattista Tiepollo, Asmus Jacob Carstens, Johann Liss, and Gottlieb Schiek.
Over time, German art evolved into expressions that captured sentiment after World War II.
These new art styles were categorized as Socialist Realism, Neo-Expressionism, and Conceptualism. Germany also became a focal point for Contemporary art.
