1933-1945HGB. Eine Ausstellung des HGB-Archivs
In our words:
The HGB opens its archives and shows how art and power were interwoven during the Nazi era. Not an easy topic, but important for that very reason!
In the organizer's words:
The exhibition provides an initial insight into the history of the HGB (then the Academy of Graphic Arts and Book Trade) during the National Socialist era. Research in the HGB archive and library, the state archives in Leipzig and Dresden, the digital holdings of the Leo Baeck Institute in New York, as well as a review of contemporary journals and current secondary literature form the basis for the material in the exhibition. It shows the current state of knowledge on this chapter of the institution's history and aims to invite further joint research.
In fall 2025, HGB Magazine #3 will be published as a result of the HGB seminar on right-wing continuities from 2021 to 2023. The seminar was conducted by Julia Blume, Nanne Buurman and Julia Kurz, who also formed the editorial team for this themed magazine.
Opening hours: Wed. + Thu. 13:30-17:30, Fri. 14:30-18:30
