The Hellish War Paintings of Otto Dix

Many artists have painted the battlefield, but few have truly been on it. Otto Dix was an artist who stood on the front lines, held a weapon, and witnessed the horrors firsthand.

At night, he used a notebook to capture his traumatic visions. Today, most of his works have been lost—some were confiscated, others destroyed.

In this video, we will delve into the work of this extraordinary artist and uncover the man who actually painted the horrors of war.
