| Notes |
English: Heddle Pulleys are functional objects, which were virtuously designed and decorated the looms, especially among the Baule and Guro. The small, carefully executed carvings hung in the loom at the weaver's eye level.
Deutsch: Webrollenhalter sind funktionelle Objekte, die vor allem bei den Baule und Guro virtuos gestaltet wurden und die Webstühle zierten. Die kleinen, sorgfältig ausgeführten Schnitzarbeiten hingen im Webstuhl auf Augenhöhe des Webers. |

The estate of Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, owned by the Karl and Emy Schmidt-Rottluff Foundation at the Brücke Museum, contains his collection of around 100 sculptures and objects with colonial backgrounds. The Brücke artist himself never travelled outside Europe and, to the best of current knowledge, bought these objects in the art trade and from private owners from the 1910s onwards. The collection includes ritual and everyday objects, alongside souvenirs for the Western market. The way they were perceived underwent changes: they came to be seen as objects of art and decoration. Little is known of their origins, the circumstances of their acquisition, or the historical and current importance of the objects. Most of them originate from Germany’s former colonies, thus referring directly to German Expressionists’ entanglements in the often unlawful appropriation of material culture in colonially occupied lands.
