## Bio

Born Hans Emil Hansen in 1867, he became Emil Nolde and joined the early Expressionist circle Die Brücke, exploring color with a fervor few oil and watercolor painters of the early 20th century matched. His brushwork was unrestrained, his palette luminous: golden yellows and deep reds gave weight to somber tones, while his watercolors swung between vivid florals and dark storm-scapes, the flower obsession tracing back to an intense preoccupation with van Gogh. In 1937 the Nazi regime he supported — he was a Party member with documented racist and antisemitic views — included his art in the Entartete Kunst exhibition, branding the work he made degenerate. He died in 1956, the paintings and the contradiction intact.
