The Eternal Jew (art exhibition)
The Eternal Jew was the title of an exhibition on stated degenerate art, displayed at the Library of the German Museum in Munich from 8 November 1937 to 31 January 1938.[1] Attendance of over two million visitors was recorded.[2]
Although this was the most known such exhibition, it was preceded by a number of other exhibitions in cities such as Mannheim, Karlsruhe, Dresden, Munich, Berlin and Vienna. The works of art displayed at these exhibitions generally consisted of works executed by avant-garde artists who had become recognized and esteemed in the 1920s.
After the exhibition ended in Munich, it was displayed in Vienna from 2 August through 23 October 1938, and subsequently in Berlin from 12 November 1938 through 31 January 1939.[1]
