The Fascists loved describing Jews, LGBTQI & Roma as ‘degenerate’. Indeed they created an exhibition called degenerate art (Entartete Kunst). Their cognitive dissonance is telling, even today.

Other artists were persecuted, attacked, hunted or harassed to death by Fascists. The case of Chaim Soutine (1893-1943) is one such. The far right banned most modern art including the greatest artist of the 20th C, Picasso.

Charlotte Salomon (1917-43) was a German Jewish artist who created a ‘diary’ of autobiographical paintings. Her work is profoundly moving. She was captured in 1943 in France & sent to Auschwitz. She & her unborn child were murdered there.

Karl Pärsimägi (1902-42) was an Estonian Fauvist painter & proud Estonian. He was arrested in Paris & moved to Auschwitz. It’s surmised that he was murdered for being gay.

Felix Nussbaum (1904-44), a German Jewish painter, was one of the most important artists of the 20th C. He documented the nihilism & evil of the Far Right. His work brings home the dangers of the Fascist creed. He & his wife were murdered at Auschwitz.
