Description

“The poster for the exhibition shows a crude, naked Indian woman, brutally shredded, with a bow at the ready. Here is the programme: the revolt of primitive, raw artistic instincts against civilisation, culture and taste in art.” (Erich Vogeler, exhibition review, in: Der Kunstwart. Vol. 23, 1910, p. 4, p. 314).
