Description

The Nazi Perpetrator: Postwar German Art and the Politics of the Right By Paul B. Jaskot University of Minnesota Press, 2012 In postwar Germany, artists and architects grappled with the legacy of the Nazi regime, a problem deeply entangled with contemporary conservative politics. This book fundamentally reevaluates pivotal developments in postwar German art and architecture against the backdrop of contentious debates over the Nazi past. Jaskot examines key works and episodes from West Germany and reunified Germany, showing how the changing perception of the perpetrator impacted art and architecture. A close analysis of specific works reveals that the ongoing influence of Nazi Germany after 1945 is central to understanding modern German art and architecture.
