European Realities

Realism movements of the 1920s and 1930s in Europe

The exhibition project European Realities at the Gunzenhauser Museum includes positions from various European countries, in particular from Northern, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe. The diverse realist movements that were visible almost everywhere in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s are shown on a hitherto unique scale. The exhibition tells of hunger and misery, of the modernisation of industry, reports on the economic upswing and cultural prosperity, of technical progress, the big city and nightlife, emancipation and diversity.
