George Grosz / Curated by Lutz Becker A Hayward Touring Exhibition from the Southbank Centre, London

Tuesday 7 May – Saturday 1 June George Grosz (1893-1959) was one of the greatest satirical artists of the 20th Century. A cofounder of the Berlin Dada group and revolutionary in the 1920s, he made hundreds of drawings depicting the vices and injustices of a society on the brink of economic and moral collapse. Many of Grosz’s drawings were published in portfolios by the left wing publisher Malik-Verlag, and this new Hayward Touring Exhibition, presents two of the most powerful: ‘Ecce Homo’, 1923, and ‘Hintergrund’ (‘Background’), 1928.
