The Politics of Memory in Germany and France

Filed under: Uncategorized — Paul @ 7:10 pm

This project combines contemporary images of Berlin and Paris with historical renderings of those places during the heyday of the Nazi and Vichy regimes, as a way of revealing and interrogating the repression of the sites and acts of fascism in postwar Europe. These images afford the opportunity to ask an entirely new set of questions about the relationship between cities, their past and present “lives”, and the role of historical knowledge in mediating the tensions between those lives.

These images capture aspects of the National Socialist strategies for art. They illustate how the “petty bourgeois” impatience in comprehending the modern combined with the state racist policies to create an art museum focused on the mythologies of national history. By cleansing German museums of “degenerate art” and by organizing art shows that reinforced the party line, the Nazis believed they could ecourage museum visitors to view and identify with a sanitized past. In the process, not only was the complexity of art denied, but history as well. Click Artful Dodgers to view more images.
