In 1902 [Kubin](http://www.moma.org/collection/artist.php?artist_id=3276) had his first one-man show at the Galerie Cassirer in Berlin, which was well received by the critics.

After 1909 Kubin was a member of the *Neue künstlervereinigung münchen* and exhibited with its successor the *Blaue Reiter* in 1911, as well as contributing drawings to *Der Blaue Reiter* in 1912. Kubin was deeply affected by World War I. Occasionally he treated the war directly in his work, as in *The Mortar*, but usually he approached it more obliquely. Kubin’s work of the 1930s was generally less savage than earlier but retained a strong suggestive power, as in the dark *Meeting in the Forest* (c. 1931–2; Munich, Lenbachhaus). There is an archive at the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich, containing drawings, paintings and other material by Kubin. - Christoph Brockhaus, 2009\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"Alfred Kubin was een Oostenrijkse tekenaar, illustrator, schilder en schrijver, die ruime bekendheid genoot voor zijn illustraties van schrijvers als Balzac, E.T.A.

Af en toe behandelde hij de oorlog direct in zijn werk, als in *The Mortar*, maar gewoonlijk liet het subtieler doorschemeren. Kubins werk werd in de jaren 1930 over het algemeen minder wild, maar behield wel die sterke, suggestieve kracht, als in het donkere *Ontmoeting in het Woud* (c. 1931–2; München, Lenbachhaus). Een archief aan de Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in München bevat tekeningen, schilderijen en ander materiaal van Kubin.\r\n- Christoph Brockhaus, 2009\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"locations":[{"country":"Austria","place":"","category":{"en":"Lives in","nl":"Leeft in","fr":"Vit à"}}]}
