| book description |

The publication explores the diversity of the lives and destinies of artists during the Weimar Republic, under National Socialism, and until the inaugural documenta held in the young Federal Republic in 1955. Their works and biographies bear witness to the horrors of persecution and careers cut short, to resistance and conformity. The presentation intertwines the individual lives with the parallel strands of contemporary history and institutional frameworks. Numerous authors shed light on issues that have recently attracted sustained interest from historians. The choice of emphases reflects the history of the Lenbachhaus's collection and exhibition program. The presentation accordingly focuses on the Munich art scene, complemented by major phenomena on the national and international stages. Diversity of biographies and topics of German art history between 1918 and 1955 With works by Otto Freundlich, Käthe Hoch, Rudolf Schlichter, Maria Luiko, George Grosz, Gabriele Münter, and others Exhibition Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus und Kunstbau, October 15, 2022–April 16, 2023 Look inside
