Although close to the Latin word \u0026ndash; documentum meaning: a lesson or warning, the title of the exhibition is an invented word that was supposed to embody the intention to be a documentation of modern art. Having revealed artworks which were deprived from public view during the Nazi regime, it was the first major event to present avant-garde art in Germany since the infamous \u003cem\u003eEntartete Kunstexhibition\u003c/em\u003e (1937). Held in the newly restored and whitewashed halls of the Museum Fridericianum, a creation of the German Enlightenment, which had been almost completely destroyed during the war and then restored, \u003cem\u003edocumenta \u003c/em\u003esought to symbolise Germany\u0026rsquo;s re-opening to the cultures of the world. Arnold Bode, the founder and curator of the first exhibition, aimed to present a genealogy of modern art and the universality of its language. The exhibition centred on the European abstract painting of the first decades of the 20th century, and the catalogue of the first \u003cem\u003edocumenta \u003c/em\u003eincludes a celebratory section of plates with photographs of leading modernist artists. The most international part of the exhibition included a series of photographs of archaic sculptures from all around the world.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003eDe eerste\u0026nbsp;documenta\u0026nbsp;vond van 15 juli tot 18 september 1955 plaats in Kassel. Hoewel het woord \u0026#39;documenta\u0026#39; dicht aanleunt bij het Latijnse woord \u0026#39;documentum\u0026#39; (les of lering), is het een verzonnen term die het idee van een \u0026#39;documentatie\u0026#39; van moderne kunst moest oproepen. De expo onthulde kunstwerken die het publiek waren ontzegd tijdens het naziregime en werd zo het eerste grote evenement dat avant-gardekunst in Duitsland presenteerde sinds de beruchte tentoonstelling\u0026nbsp;\u003cem\u003eEntartete\u0026nbsp;Kunst\u003c/em\u003e\u0026nbsp;in 1937. De\u0026nbsp;documenta\u0026nbsp;wilde symbool te staan voor een Duitsland dat zich opnieuw openstelde voor de culturen van de wereld. De tentoonstelling vond plaats in de toentertijd net gerestaureerde, witgekalkte zalen van het Museum\u0026nbsp;Fridericianum, een creatie van de Duitse Verlichting die tijdens de oorlog bijna volledig verwoest werd. Arnold Bode, oprichter en curator van de eerste tentoonstelling, wou een genealogie van de moderne kunst presenteren, die begrepen werd als universele taal. De tentoonstelling concentreerde zich op de Europese abstracte schilderkunst van de eerste decennia van de 20ste eeuw, en de catalogus van de eerste\u0026nbsp;documenta\u0026nbsp;bevatte, als ode, een sectie foto\u0026#39;s van werken van vooraanstaande modernistische kunstenaars. Het meest internationale deel van de tentoonstelling omvatte een serie foto\u0026#39;s van archa\u0026iuml;sche sculpturen van over de hele wereld.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[]}
