Banned

I am not sure where Nolde's politics lead him or that I agree. Ultimately his works were banned by the Nazi rule. He stuck it out - though good and bad times. He spent time in Berlin and finally in Seebull (which I have to 'google' later).

He did some very interesting work called 'unpainted paintings'. These watercolors and ink are strangely appealing works of art.

Much of his work appeals to me as primitive and brightly colored paintings. I'd have a hard time picking the work that I liked most. His watercolors and wood blocks were very nice too.
