VOICE of a Woman
Kathe Kollwitz looked at the role of women who had remained steadfast against a back drop of the ruination and chaos caused by war and social unrest. She constructed pictures that made sense of it all. Her message is that there is something quintessential to human survival and happiness that cannot be equated to money, power or prestige. Nor can it be gained or transmuted through force or by tricks of ideology or processes linked to human thought. That message is love and it is the keystone to survival.
