THE ARTISTIC MOVEMENT OF THE CITY OF BRASOV IN 1949 AND 1950 MIRRORED IN THE DAILY NEWSPAPER “NEUER WEG”

Summary/Abstract: The artistic movement of the city of Brasov in 1949 and 1950 mirrored in the daily newspaper “Neuer Weg”. The paper is aiming at analyzing the artistic life of the Germans from the city of Brasov in the years 1949 and 1950, as it is mirrored in the newspaper “Neuer Weg”. Before WW II the Germans constituted a group of their own and practiced mainly a kind of expressionism. As most of the artist contributed works to exhibitions in Nazi Germany, after the end of the war they became vulnerable. Therefore they had to accept the collaboration with the communist regime and adopt the doctrine of socialist realism, a paradigm which was legally enforced in the soviet controlled countries from 1949 to 1956. Some artists were committed to the new doctrine, while others were more cautious.
