Der Querschnitt

Der Querschnitt (The Cross Section) was an art magazine published by the German art dealer Alfred Flechtheim between 1921 and 1936. The magazine was based in Berlin.[1]

According to Erika Esau, the magazine 'represented the pollitically detached aspirations of the aesthetically attuned of the Western world. Lightheartedly snobistish, the magazine;s inclusions of works by anyone who was anybody in the Weimar period and its unorthodox graphic and literary style quilifies it as an avant-garde publication.'[2]

Hermann von Wedderkop served as an editor of the publication.[3]
