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 November 8, 1937 to January 31, 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 August 2 through October 23, 1938, and subsequently in Berlin from November 12, 1938 through January 31, 1939.[1]
