1937 The Day of German Art Munich Official Festival Post Card franked with Sc 419 postally used in Munich
Lot 463
Official Festival Post Card franked with Sc 419 postally used in Miinchen, 18 July 1937.
“The new art canon enjoined the banishment of all evocations of human anguish, distress and pain—in other words all ugliness from people’s consciousness. Gleischschaltung (Coordination with the Regime) proceeded less hurriedly in the sphere of the visual arts than in some other spheres.
Only the concurrent exhibitions in Miinchen of NS-sponsored art and Degenerate Art in the summer of 1937 signified the completion of the purging and whipping process, the delay was in part due to the overlapping activities of Rosenburg’s Combat League and Goebbels’ Reich Chamber of Art.”
