A British view on Germany: Memories of a Nation
This exhibition first shown at the British Museum in 2014 can now be seen in Berlin's Martin-Gropius-Bau museum. It explores 600 years of German history through significant objects and artworks.
Memories of a nation
This exhibition held at Berlin's Martin-Gropius-Bau museum is based on Neil MacGergor's book "Germany: Memories of a Nation." The British art historian, former director of the British Museum and now head of the Humboldt Forum, has specialized in exploring history through objects.
Ethical collapse
The exhibition shows a replica of this infamous inscription on the gate of the Buchenwald concentration camp, which means "To each what they are due." The sign was designed by Franz Ehrlich, a former Bauhaus student detained there. The deadly concentration camp was built right by Weimar, otherwise famed as the city of Goethe, of Bauhaus, and the birthplace of the democratic Weimar Republic.
