| Summary |
This book is the fruit of the international conference Wie das zweite Exil das erste zum Sprechen bringt--Moskauer Archive und die Künste in Paris 1933-1945 (How the second exile gives a voice to the first--Moscow Archives and the arts in Paris 1933-1945), which took place at the German Historical Institute (DHI Moskau) in Moscow, June 23-24, 2011. The aim of the conference, held in French, German and Russian, was to promote international discussion and basic research on art history during the years 1933-1945. The idea was to bring together specialists in different historical fields, with different experiences in the art world and who normally did not meet or work together--specialists in national heritage despoiled by war, specialists in provenance research, art historians, specialists in exile studies, in Russian archives--and to suggest new research prospects emanating from these newly discovered documents. The diversity of participants (from France, Germany, Russia, and the U.S.) would enable both a deeper and broader perspective concerning the years between 1933-1945, a clearer, more authentic image of cultural repression before the Nazis actually seized power in France in 1940. And Paris was all the more important as it was the intellectual and artistic refuge for the majority of those who were against the Nazi regime in Germany |
