Abstract

Drawn from the NGA's collection of International prints and photographs this exhibition brings together the works of significant German artists, Otto Dix and August Sander. Presenting the divergent ways these artists took to documenting German society following the country’s defeat in the First World War, it explores complex relationships of history, trauma, nationhood and identity through images of war, people and landscapes.
