Brody & Paetau: Degenerate Art


quote [The idea of the Degenerate Art exhibition came from the numerous negative critiques that people write on our website as a response to our works. While reading the critiques the impression arouse that our work is perceived as ‘degenerate’ by many people. We decided to paint a selection of 30 critiques referring to our work in a calligraphic manner using the Schwabacher typography. These ‘critique paintings’ point out the degeneracy of our art. We also created a double (gay) Self-Portrait as Hitler in order to incorporate our degenerate image].
