Current Exhibitions

Explore 100 years of German painting with your students by viewing the exhibition From Caspar David Friedrich to Gerhard Richter: German Paintings from Dresden. Paintings by contemporary artist Gerhard Richter and his predecessor Caspar David Friedrich provide excellent prompts for descriptive and creative writing exercises.
Lead middle and high school students in a comparative exercise by contrasting paintings by Friedrich and Richter at the Getty Center or by viewing their works side-by-side in an online gallery. You can adapt our pre-visit activity "Writing to See" to focus on works by Friedrich and Richter. Instruct students to describe similarities and differences between the artists' works and then write creative, fantastical stories based on their reactions to the paintings.
