the exhibition was hosted in the institute of archeology in the hofgarten. the venue was chosen for its particular qualities (dark, narrow rooms). many works were displayed without frames and partially covered by derogatory slogans. photographs of the exhibitions had been made, as well as a catalogue, produced for the berlin show, which accompanied the exhibition as it travelled. a film of sections of the exhibition had also been produced. the degenerate art exhibition included 650 paintings, sculptures and prints by 112 artists, primarily german: georg grosz, ernst ludwig kirchner, paul klee, georg kolbe, wilhelm lehmbruck, franz marc, emil nolde, otto dix, willi baumeister, kurt schwitters and others. ziegler also confiscated and exhibited works of foreign artists, such as pablo picasso, jean metzinger, albert gleizes, piet mondrian, marc chagall and wassily kandinsky. a large number of works were not displayed, as the exhibition focused on german works. the exhibition lasted until 30 november 1937, and 2,009,899 visitors attended it, an average of 20,000 people per day.
