Abstract

This paper is analysing the relationship between totalitarianism (particularly in its Nazi form) and art. The following questions are being thematised: whether totalitarianism and art can actually coexist and whether their conflict is truly inevitable, whether and what kind of art can exist within the totalitarian framework, and, in line with the basic concept of this paper, whether any significant artwork was produced during the Nazism era. This paper also considers the attitude of Nazi ideology towards certain forms of art, such as sculpture, film, literature and painting, as well as the segments of Nazi repression in terms of artistic expression.
