WW1 - Aftermath Tate Britain

Solidgone

Exhibition at Tate Britain explores the impact of the 1st WW on the art of Britain, France and Germany between 1916 and 1932.
Quite moving with some paintings showing the horrors of this war from the destruction, deaths, injuries both physical and physiological.
Well worth a couple of hours of your time.

Sounds very interesting.

Agreed: a captivating show. Good to see the impeccable draughtsmanship from Weimar Germany: Otto Dix, George Grosz, Christian Schad, who also feature in a free show at Tate Modern.

Went to this a couple of weeks ago and thought it was very good, especially the German work.
