Also interesting to elaborate on is the Frankfurter Schule. An ideology that promoted abstract art very much to try to estrange people from what they found beautiful in art because of a specific reason.
Lovis Corinth, last president of the Berlin Sucession, fits the bill. I much prefer his earlier work prior to 1911 as it was tighter in construction although some of his later work was very forceful as it was painterly. Käthe Kollwitz is associated with die Neue Sachlichkeit although she preferred not to have her work categorized. Her drawings and etchings were especially forceful such as Woman with Dead Child. Her sculptures are equally moving. If I am not mistaken Felix Nussbaum, a victim of the Holocaust, was not included in that infamous Degenerative Art show. However, he was influenced by Otto Dix and Max Beckman.
It could be argued that they were not 'fearful' of such art but 'disgusted' by it. Either way, they were foolish to try and destroy it. If they were so sure they were right, they could have kept it and let others decide for themselves.

Yes Good point. But they did fear creative free thinkers, that is not people you want in a dictatorship, it’s a threat to it.
