With internationalist aspirations and wide-ranging historical
perspectives, East German films about artists and their work became
hotly contested spaces in which filmmakers could look beyond the
GDR and debate the impact of contemporary cultural policy on the
reception of their pre-war cultural heritage. Spanning newsreels,
documentaries, and feature films, Screening Art is the first
full-length investigation into a genre that has been largely
overlooked in studies of DEFA, the state-owned Eastern German film
studio. As it shows, "artist-films" played an essential role in the
development of new paradigms of socialist art in postwar Europe.
