August 14–October 11, 2009

Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin

Organized by Carmen Giménez, Curator of Twentieth-Century Art at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, the exhibition Abstraction and Empathy brings together works that embody an aesthetic divide similar to the one described in Wilhelm Worringer’s seminal 1908 book also titled Abstraction and Empathy, wherein periods of anxiety and intense spirituality experience artistic production that tends toward a flat, crystalline “abstraction” while cultures that are oriented toward science and the physical world are dominated by more naturalistic, embodied styles, which Worringer grouped under the term “empathy.”
