This simple design, featuring the artist’s loose monogram in splash of black paint on a red ground, promotes a 1950 exhibition of the work of Oskar Kokoschka at the Haus der Kunst (House of Art) in Munich, Germany. In 1937, Kokoschka’s paintings had been among the 740 modern works displayed at what was then known as the Haus der Deutschen Kunst (House of German Art) in the notorious Entartetete Kunst (Degenerate Art) exhibition, a Nazi propaganda show intended to equate the radical themes and styles of modern art with moral and mental decay. After the war, the museum was renamed the Haus der Kunst and the curators began to rehabilitate modernism in exhibitions like this one. The poster was designed by American artist Stefan Peter Munsing. He was in Bavaria as a “Monuments Man” in 1948, supervising the ongoing restitution of cultural artifacts at the Munich Central Collecting Point. In his role as the director and curator of the nearby Amerika Haus, he designed posters and catalogues for several exhibitions at local museums.
