The Third Reich's Ministry of Propaganda assumed that a portion of such works would find buyers abroad. In this way certain artworks deemed internationally "exploitable" reached the art market through various channels. In 1939 Georg Schmidt (1896-1965), the Kunstmuseum Basel's director at the time, managed to acquire the painting Fate of the Animals by Franz Marc and 20 other avant-garde works. In this catalogue, the authors trace the events based on the seizures from German museums and explain the historical context presenting the protagonists from the institutions involved and the art market, as well as revealing how the Nazi regime's act of cultural violence that resulted in an artificial fragmentation of modernism into art that was "exploitable" on the one hand, and art that has been destroyed or forgotten on the other. The various contributions bring the specifically Swiss aspects of this story into focus, such as on the auction of the Galerie Fischer in Lucerne, on Georg Schmidt's approach, and on the classification of the acquisitions in the context of Basel's collection history. 610 20 $a OÂffentliche Kunstsammlung Basel $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Entartete Kunst $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, German $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a National socialism and art $v Exhibitions. 651 0 $a Germany $x Cultural policy $v Exhibitions. 651 0 $a Switzerland $x Cultural policy $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art $z Basel $z Basel $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art $x Collectors and collecting $z Basel $z Basel $v Exhibitions. 700 1 $a Reifert, Eva, $e editor. 700 1 $a Rosebrock, Tessa, $e editor. 710 2 $a OÂffentliche Kunstsammlung Basel, $e host institution. 776 08 $z 9783775752213 $i German edition 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117021434.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=27C819B8F47811EDA3FB15433FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
