This book brings together texts and visual material that oppose the ideological and aesthetic justification of war. Kunst gegen die Krieg examines how artists and intellectuals use art as a moral and cultural counterforce to violence, nationalism, and mass destruction. The publication highlights artistic expression as a form of resistance and as a means of preserving humanity and critical awareness in times of armed conflict. By situating art within the crisis of early twentieth-century Europe, the book presents creativity as an ethical stance and a voice of conscience against war.
