More than 140 paintings, sculptures and drawings by artists Ericka Giovanna Klien, Max Oppenheimer, Day Schnabel, Henry Koerner, Victor Hammer, Franz Lerch, Hans B hler, Josef Binder, Wolfgang Paalen, Anna Mahler and Frederick Kiesler were chosen for their expression of the varying reasons for exile and the diverse responses to the American landscape of the period. The 11 artists chosen for this exhibition, all now deceased, are representative of a massive cultural exodus from Austria between 1918 and 1940 that was initiated by the dire economic circumstances and political instability following the end of World War I and encouraged by the Austro-fascists who took power in 1934. Most of the artists in the Block Gallery's upcoming exhibition were Jewish or would have been declared so by National Socialist racial laws.
