Controversy

[edit]

Jennewein exhibited his sculptures three times in the Great German Art Exhibitions Großen Deutschen Kunstausstellungen in Munich, in 1937, 1938 and 1939. These were Nazi propaganda events. After the war the US government apparently paid him almost 30,000 dollars compensation for the destruction of his art works bombed in Munich by Allied bombers.
