Abstract (en)

Questions the omission of contemporary East German art from the exhibition German art of the 20th century (London, Royal Academy of Arts, 1985-1986). Reconstructs art historiography in the country since the 1920s, examining the conjunction of cultural traditions and official ideology within the framework of state institutional policies.
