Museum “Art of the Lost Generation”
This privately run non-profit museum shows the extraordinary collection of Prof. Dr. Heinz R. Böhme. The collection currently comprises around 450 works and tells the stories of artists who were considered "degenerate" during the National Socialist era, were persecuted and are largely unknown today.
New works from the Böhme Collection Because they were ahead of zeitgeist of their time, the artists of the Lost Generation, like so many other artists, were suppressed, persecuted and murdered by the National Socialist regime. Unique personalities and works of art were thus left behind and forgotten in the course of history.
With this exhibition, the Museum of the Lost Generation aims to highlight the life's work of people who were not recognised during their lifetime. Discover the expressive works of a special generation who did not let themselves be stopped from making their contribution to cultural history as "degenerates".
