Scope and Content
Advertising leaflet for the "Entartete Kunst" [Degenerate Art] exhibition in Munich 1937. The text of the flyer invites the public to visit the exhibition and "to judge for himself" the quality of the art, describing the artwork as "pathologic, sick and spiritually rotten, torturing the fabric" of German society. The flyer describes the exhibition as free to enter, but "forbidden to youth."
