DEGENERATE! Hitler's War on Modern Art

Enjoy this highly engaging opportunity to learn about art and history through a virtual video tour of DEGENERATE! Hitler’s War on Modern Art. The video is created for educational purposes and expertly guides viewers through the social, political and cultural context surrounding Hitler’s war on modern art. In-depth analysis of key pieces from our exhibit sheds light on the skewed logic used by the regime to identify art as ‘un-German’. By highlighting the context and the content in detail, this tour of DEGENERATE! engages the viewer to wrestle with cultures of intolerance in profound and meaningful ways.

A purchase of the video tour includes supplementary materials as well:

  • A full script of the video, complete with links that lead to further exploration and lesson plans
  • A worksheet to help enhance student comprehension and critical thinking
  • A one-hour Zoom Q&A with a trained member of the education team
