The Berlin-born artist Heinz Koppel was one of a number of German-Jewish artists who, having fled Germany for Great Britain in the 1930s, brought with them the “continental” Expressionist and Surrealist-oriented tendencies of the 1920s and thereby exerted a significant influence on the British art scene.
New: Every Sunday, from 15th November until 13th December 2009, the Centrum Judaicum is offering a guided tour - "Who is Heinz Koppel?" - with Anna Canby Monk, head of the Heinz Koppel exhibitions office. The tour is in German. English-language tours can be booked in advance. For more information or to make a booking please contact: Koppel-exh@centrumjudaicum.de
