Description
Deutsch: Kaiser Fritz, München / Propagandaleitung, Amtsleitung Kultur / Verlag für Kultur- und Wirtschaftswerbung, Berlin: Führer durch die Ausstellung Entartete Kunst (1938)
English: Cropped, low resolution image of a page from the guide or catalogue of the "Degenerate Art Exhibition" (Entartete Kunst Ausstellung) first shown in München 1937, written by Fritz Kaiser and published by Verlag für Kultur- und Wirtschaftswerbung for the Amtsleitung Kultur of the Reichspropagandaleitung der NSDAP, the Nazi Party's propaganda central office in Germany 1926–1945. No known copyright restrictions. This file is copied from a scanned facsimile of the catalogue found at the Archive.org.

The guide was published in Berlin when the exhibition went on tour to Kunsthalle Berlin from 26 February to 8 May 1938, and continued to other cities until 1941.

The Degenerate Art Exhibition (German: Die Ausstellung "Entartete Kunst") was an art exhibition organized by Adolf Ziegler and the Nazi Party in Munich from 19 July to 30 November 1937. The exhibition presented 650 works of art, confiscated from German museums, and was staged in counterpoint to the concurrent Great German Art Exhibition. Degenerate art was defined as works that "insult German feeling, or destroy or confuse natural form or simply reveal an absence of adequate manual and artistic skill". Another Degenerate Art Exhibition was hosted a few months later in Berlin, and later in Leipzig, Düsseldorf, Weimar, Halle, Vienna and Salzburg, to be seen by another million or so people.
