About The Gallery
Worthington Gallery was founded in 1970 by Eva-Maria Worthington, an art historian. The gallery specializes in German Expressionism, Blaue Reiter, Bauhaus, Neue Sachlichkeit, etc. We had exhibitions of Naive Art (self-taught) and some contemporary masters, such as Horst Janssen, Michael Triegel, Marc Velten, and several master sculptors. Worthington Gallery is a long time member of the Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA) and the International Fine Print Dealers Association (IFPDA). Over the years, Mrs. Worthington has curated many exhibits: Ernst Barlach, eight Max Beckmann exhibits including a traveling museum show, a major George Grosz watercolor and drawing exhibit, Kandinsky, Kirchner, a centenary of Paul Klee, ten Kollwitz exhibits, Emil Nolde, and Kurt Schwitters, etc. A milestone was the 1980 exhibition, “Degenerate Art,” featuring over eighty works by German Expressionists with descriptions, explanations, and dates of their defamed art. Concurrently with the wonderful, brilliant, and never-forgotten Dr. Harold Joachim of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Worthington Gallery introduced Horst Janssen, the late great German draughtsman and etcher, to the American public with many exhibitions and traveling museum shows. Eva-Maria Worthington is an expert in German Expressionism,etc. An interesting, even somewhat dangerous and hair-raising, interlude was Worthington Gallery’s exposure of a traveling museum exhibition of fifty-six Expressionist fakes which caused quite an uproar in the art world. Worthington Gallery is also devoted to furthering the careers of several contemporary painters and sculptors of the highest merit as well as International Naive Art. |
