70 Years of Art in Architecture in Germany

In 1950, the obligatory participation of visual artists in state building measures was decreed in the German Bundestag as well as in the parliament of the GDR. Over a period of 70 years, numerous artworks that reflected the politics, society, and architecture of the state were created. This title sheds light on the significance and potentials of building-related art for state authorities and institutions, research institutes, military facilities, and German representation around the world.
