Description
Published to accompany the exhibition at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, this volume examines the volatile intersection of art and politics in Germany between 1910 and 1937. It features critical essays on Expressionism, Dada, and New Objectivity, contextualizing works by artists such as Otto Dix, George Grosz, and Max Beckmann within the socio-political collapse of the Weimar Republic. The catalog serves as a vital survey of the aesthetic shifts from the pre-WWI era through the rise of National Socialism, highlighting how the 'Mad Square' of Berlin became a crucible for radical modernism.
