Marking the 84th anniversary of the infamous 1937 Degenerate Art Exhibition (Die Ausstellung “Entartete Kunst”), staged by the Nazis in violent condemnation of the Modernist art of the period, our student tour guides examine the complexity of this historical moment, its relationship to the Busch-Reisinger Museum, and its enduring relevance in modern-day museum practices and discourses about art. Join Cecilia Zhou and Paul Tamburro as they reflect on the history and legacy of the Nazi crusade against “degenerate art.” TAKE A CLOSER LOOK: + Follow the Student Guides on Instagram @harvardarthappens: https://www.instagram.com/harvardarthappens/ + Join an upcoming tour via https://harvardartmuseums.org/calendar + Explore more virtual tours and chats with our student guides: https://vimeo.com/channels/1067642 --- The Ho Family Student Guide Program at the Harvard Art Museums prepares students to create original, research-based tours and interpretive materials about the collections.
