| Details: | This chilling documentary explores how artistic, cultural and historical trends forged the National Socialist aesthetic, which in turn contributed to the unspeakable horrors of the Holocaust. Swedish-born filmmaker Peter Cohen, whose parents escaped the Nazis, examines Hitler's failed career as an artist, his fascination with Wagner, the Nazi obsession with cleanliness, the paradoxical link between "beauty" and evil in the Third Reich, and more. We’ll follow the film with a discussion of the symbolism and meaning attributed to certain types of architecture. Admission is a $10 donation to the Dallas Center for Architecture. Refreshments
will be provided. |
| Cost: | $10 donation to DCFA. |
