Presentation of the Exilarte Estates

The exhibition ran from 2018 until 2024.

In the context of this exhibition, twelve estates preserved in the archives of the Exilarte Center were presented. These estates provided insight into the diversity of biographies of  composers who were all forced into exile. Through several audio stations more than 30 compositions of these creative minds were made accessible.  Their works conveyed an idea of the plurality of styles in the first half of the twentieth century, before National Socialism tore a deep crater of barbarism into the European landscape.

Exhibited estates: Anita Bild, Walter Bricht, Theo Buchwald, Julius Bürger, Robert Freistadtl, Richard Fuchs, Hans Gál, Wilhelm Grosz, Egon Lustgarten, André Singer, Jan Urban, Hans Winterberg
