The economic crisis of 1929 and World War II constitute the spatial parentheses that frame the period examined in The 1930s: The Making of "The New Man." The exhibition includes more than 200 works by eminent European and North American artists; the works of art-paintings, sculpture, drawings, photography and film-are grouped around key themes that shed new light on this complex and troubling era.
