Now I can do some self-education with the array of artists here.
saved it on my faves. Here is a direct link I found there to some of Beckmann's paintings.

That time of art between the wars was for the survivors and certainly contained the angst and greif that war gave to the international artists community, and indeed there are artists on this list who opposed one another in the great war.......
there was a painting hanging in the st pete florita museum of fine art that went beyond that fine garbage and showed a young painter, a young teen, painting with a prophetic visionary quality about using design forms, warm and cool, spapes using them as compositional tools in a landscape early winter field and factory before the snows....Morgner died in WW1 along with Macke and Marc for the Germans, there were others and wonder where an accomplished inventory of the artists of the first two decades fof the 1900's could be found, if even a study was made at all, because it gives clues to what should be happening now as we who were meant for these times live in a mix of stupor, eupohoria, lament, and giving of ourselves in a manner that does not detract from a need for plain laziness, sloth, avarice.
Morgner also painted giant red devils, "friendly apparition"
His "woman with wheelbarrow" below
also Macke died.....here is a painting also prophetic, "farewell", 1914, maybe his family, a goodbye memoir.

He was alive and a shooting star, a duck in a shooting gallery.
Too Bad. RIP.
