European Realities
The exhibition project European Realities at the Gunzenhauser Museum includes positions from various European countries, in particular from Northern, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe. The diverse realist movements that were visible almost everywhere in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s are shown on an up to now unique scale. The exhibition tells of hunger and misery, of the modernisation of industry, reports on the economic upswing and cultural prosperity, of technical progress, the big city and nightlife, emancipation and diversity. The exhibition is part of the main programme of the European Capital of Culture Chemnitz 2025.
