The Berlin of the first half of the 20th century is defined by violent political turmoil - and radical artistic renewal. Bloodletting - and regeneration. Berlin as Moloch - and Muse. The capital’s life and rhythms are governed by poverty and depression on the one hand, on the other the dance craze - and jazz. In their elegant hotels, cafés and bars, Berlin’s glamorous denizens shimmy towards the abyss. War, flight and exile are the horsemen of their apocalypse. A new world order – and a new youth culture – will seal their fate. The sounds of their era have faded. A combination of seldom seen photographs and historic recordings from private archives offers a sensually opulent kaleidoscope of the metropolis in all its splendour and misery, glamour and horror during three infernal, turbulent decades: 1920 – 1950.zdroj: www.slovart.cz
