Liz Gilbert on 27 Apr 10Researchers at Freie Universität in Berlin on Tuesday unveiled a database reconstructing the fate of all the works of art classified by the Nazis as "degenerate" and then confiscated from museums. The documentation of the "Degenerate Art" Research Center at the Art History Institute includes more than 21,000 records on paintings, sculptures, and prints banned in 1937 by the National Socialists as "degenerate" and confiscated. Some 1,400 artists were affected. As of April 21, the results of their research will be accessible online, free of charge.
