Munich was one of the earliest and most important centres of Art Nouveau in Germany. After the founding of the first Secession here (1892), the magazines Simplicissimus and Jugend were also published in Munich as from 1896. The latter also gave the new art its German name.

Many artists were searching for contemporary forms of expression and followed holistic approaches. In addition to the classic genres of high art, the spectrum of work also extended into other fields; objects were designed for different social classes and as many spheres of life as possible. In contrast to French Art Nouveau with its lavish floral ornamentation, Munich Art Nouveau is more two-dimensional and has greater clarity.

Leading to abstraction and objectivity, the roots of modernist art and design are found here. The full artistic spectrum of Munich's Art Nouveau! Including works by Peter Behrens, Sophie Burger-Hartmann, Otto Eckmann, August Endell, Elisabeth Erber, Hermann Obrist, Bruno Paul, Richard Riemerschmid, Gertraud von Schnellenbühel, and many more. Many highlights from the internationally renowned Art Nouveau collection of Munich's Municipal Museum hosted by Kunsthalle München
