(English / German)
By the time of the Anschluss in 1938, nothing had been left unchanged at the School of Applied Arts, now the University of Applied Arts Vienna - die Angewandte. Jewish and politically 'undesirable' teachers and students had been expelled, and countless promising careers had come to an abrupt end. Their escape routes, some spanning several continents, led to exile in the USA, England, Israel, South America, or Australia. Others, however, continued to work successfully throughout Austrofascism, the Nazi period and into the post-war years. With this anthology, die Angewandte goes in search of artists from all fields of art who have been completely forgotten or are only known to experts: Unwritten Biographies - a hitherto little-explored, decidedly ambivalent history of die Angewandte and Viennese Modernism.
