Curt Querner Demonstration, 1930, oil on canvas, 341⁄4x26in (87x66cm), from Aftermath: Art in the Wake of World War One at Tate Britain
Marking 100 years since the end of the First World War, Aftermath: Art in the Wake of World War One at Tate Britain, explores the impact of the war on British, German and French art and the way artists responded to it. The exhibition brings together over 150 works from a short period of time between 1916 and 1932, a turbulent period that saw artists making social critiques on such themes as corruption, poverty and the physical impact of war, which led to the birth of dada and surrealism.
Aftermath: Art in the Wake of World War One is on show at Tate Britain, Millbank, London SW1 from June 5 to September 23; www.tate.org.uk
