520    Much of how World War I is understood today is rooted in 
       the artistic depictions of the brutal violence and 
       considerable destruction that marked the conflict. Nothing
       but the Clouds Unchanged examines how the physical and 
       psychological devastation of the war altered the course of
       twentieth-century artistic modernism. Following the lives 
       and works of fourteen artists before, during, and after 
       the war, this book demonstrates how the conflict and the 
       resulting trauma actively shaped artistic production. 
       Featured artists include Georges Braque, Carlo Carrà, Otto 
       Dix, Max Ernst, George Grosz, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Oskar
       Kokoschka, Käthe Kollwitz, Fernand Léger, Wyndham Lewis, 
       André Masson, László Moholy-Nagy, Paul Nash, and Oskar 
       Schlemmer. Materials from the Getty Research Institute's 
       special collections - including letters, popular journals,
       posters, sketches, propaganda, books, and photographs - 
       situate the works of the artists within the historical 
       context, both personal and cultural, in which they were 
       created.--Publisher.
