Munich Secession

The Munich Secession [German: Münchner Sezession] grew out of a dispute between the Munich Künstlergenossenschaft with the Allgemeine Deutsche Kunstgenossenschaft in 1893. The Munich Secession is the earliest schism of a group of artists in protest against an existing artists' association but other Secessions followed in Vienna, Berlin and other cities. The first Munich Secession catalogue was issued on 15 July 1893. At that time some Berlin artists, both sculptors and painters, belonged to the Munich Secession, out of which the Berlin Secession would grow in 1899. The earliest exponents of the Munich Secession were the following:
Peter Behrens (1868-1940)
