Beskrivelse
The Tower of Blue Horses by Franz Marc, confiscated as "degenerate" and missing since then, Emil Nolde’s "Unpainted Pictures" from the time of his occupational ban, or Ernst Barlach’s dismantled, partly destroyed memorials constitute works by three key representatives of Expressionism now inscribed in German cultural history as symbols of the National Socialist persecution of art. The art of Barlach, Marc and Nolde, however, was not only defamed in the most vehement manner, but also celebrated, protected or rehabilitated as "German". In her well-sourced insight into museum, exhibition and publication practices between 1933 and 1945, Isgard Kracht exposes the mechanisms and myths of Nazi art policy, and so retells the story of Expressionism’s veneration and ostracism during the "Third Reich".
