Their art works were influenced by vibrant and emotive works of Vincent van Gough, Paul Gauguin, Edvard Munch and Fauves.
They promoted their works by conducting art exhibits and through innovative patron membership program. To ensure artistic autonomy, members of Brücke did not accept conventional gallery arrangement—they produced portfolios instead. The portfolio is a compilation of art works of one of members, but cover was made by other members of group. They made seven portfolios, most were single-artist productions. These portfolios featured Brücke V, Bathers Throwing Reeds, Three Bathers at Moritzburg Lakes, and Dancer with Raised Skirts. The images depicted city and country themes. Some showed their models bathing in nude and others showed familiar scenes in a cabaret. They printed and inked their own lithographs and etchings as well as their woodcuts.
In 1910 Die Brücke moved to Berlin and because of a certain controversy among members they disbanded in 1931.
Political art groups, like die brücke, encourage people to push their ideology in a peaceful way. It’s not just about showing your talent. It’s also about communicating your ideas and reaching to other people.
