In January 2010, 16 sculptures excavated in Berlin in front of the Red City Hall. These were identified as the confiscation of the National Socialist campaign "degenerate art" .
The first find was the Egyptian bronze portrait of actress Anni Mewes (1896-1980) by Edwin Scharff (1887-1955) that was lost since 1939.
This bronze portrait from the Bavarian State Painting Collection was confiscated in 1937 and brought to the Ministry of Propaganda in Berlin.
The new Pinakothek shows the Berlin sculpture find 75 years after the exhibition "degenerate art" and on this occasion documents the losses of the state paintings through the confiscation.
The masterpieces in the Pinakothek der Moderne now include paintings by Beckmann, Kirchner and Schmidt-Rottluff from the so-called origin museums in Leipzig, Stettin, Berlin, Halle and Königsberg.
