Long overdue
[edit]Good job T, I'll place the self portrait on Self-portrait after Johnbod does some work there. Modernist 16:08, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
- Kirchner was an extremely interesting painter, one of the most compelling (in my opinion), there was an exhibition at the Neue Galerie in New York City this summer: ERNST LUDWIG KIRCHNER: BERLIN STREET SCENE July 26 - September 17, 2007. - Modernist 04:37, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
Public domain?
[edit]Since Kirchner died in 1938, is his work now in the public domain in countries where the rules are artist life + seventy years? Can anyone confirm? See also List of authors about to enter the public domain--Jahsonic (talk) 14:47, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
- Will enter public domain on 1 January 2009. See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Visual_arts#Ernst_Ludwig_Kirchner. Tyrenius (talk) 21:47, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
Regarding Street, Berlin
[edit]Are the women in teh painting really prostitutes? Haven´t Kirchner just tried to depict his feelings toward the bourgeois streetwalkers? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.241.148.4 (talk) 14:09, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- Nope. They are prostitutes. He was fascinated by them. They were allowed to walk the streets, as long as they didn't look at the prospective clients, so they looked down or in shop windows. It was all a big pretence of good behaviour. Ty 01:58, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
birthdate
[edit]this article starts with the correct birthdate but later on says he was born in 1901, perhaps somebody could correct this? Benkruisdijk (talk) 10:07, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
- It's correct. It says "Ernst Ludwig Kirchner was born in Aschaffenburg, Germany. In 1901, he began studying architecture". Ty 10:44, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
Insert non-formatted text here==Changes== I changed the gallery style because it's more easily managed...Modernist (talk) 12:30, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
- Two of the images in the gallery were removed, so I added new examples from Commons and rearranged the gallery into chronological order. I specifically added the new images from the 1930s, when he had moved on to landscape painting in Switzerland in order to give a better overview of Kirchner's career. Do these examples in the gallery now give a better idea of his changing style, or should they be changed to other examples? (I also removed the bot warning about the files being deleted, since they already were.)"--TheCookTravels (talk) 01:51, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Update
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f6/Ernst_Ludwig_Kirchner_-_Akrobatenpaar_-_Plastik_-_1932-33.jpg/220px-Ernst_Ludwig_Kirchner_-_Akrobatenpaar_-_Plastik_-_1932-33.jpg)
I think the gallery would need an update, there are many much better files on commons now, not like his older works, brighter, more interesting... 1932-33 - too many early works. Rather dull, low resolution files. The new ones are several megabites, the new ones, much better files. Hafspajen (talk) 23:21, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

the Großes Liebespaar

I will let you chose, Modernist. Hafspajen (talk) 06:34, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you, I added 5 of the above. Kirchner is a wonderful painter...Modernist (talk) 11:13, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
- Yes! Hafspajen (talk) 14:29, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
Kirchner Museum source is a dead link
[edit]Unfortunately a heavily used source for this article (http://www.kirchnermuseum.ch/data/media/downloads/Biography.pdf) is now a dead link. I am not in a position to judge whether the current text on their website is a copy or not. It has no author details. It is at http://www.kirchnermuseum.ch/fileadmin/Inhalte_Redaktoren/Bilder_Inhalt/E.L.Kirchner/Biography_E.L.Kirchner_english.pdf William Avery (talk) 21:35, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- I now see it says "Dr. E. W. Kornfeld and Christine E. Stauffer, 1992" at the end of the English version, though there doesn't seem to be any authorship noted in the German file. I will change the URL if there are no objections. William Avery (talk) 21:58, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- URL changed. William Avery (talk) 11:44, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
Place of death
[edit]As said in the french and german version, I modified the place of death. Many sites are wrong when claiming he died in Switzerland; in fact, as said a frend of Fritz Bleyl, he shot himself in front of the Reichstag. The piece of information is confirmed by several books and articles.

Primitivism
[edit]- Anders Breivik's Deadly Paranoia — 21 July 2021
In the twentieth century, however, many thinkers began to raise serious doubts about the idea of progress and the benefits of modernity.
In the arts, for example, Ernst Kirchner and other adherents of primitivism believed that progress was overrated and moved us away from what they saw as the ideal of the noble savage.
This article draws no connection to primitivism and that article makes no mention of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner in return.
Should this connection be drawn, or has the source above jumped the movement rails? — MaxEnt 16:14, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
