Transnational artistic creation has become a matter of course in our globalized world. But what did migrant art production look like in the GDR? The volume highlights, among other things, the cultural diplomacy of the GDR and its effects, employment relationships of contract workers and taboo racism.

Foreign artists from the socialist brother countries such as Egypt, Ethiopia, Israel or Uruguay studied at the art academies of the GDR. What became of them and why they are not mentioned in retrospectives on GDR art? Their works are now the center of attention. At the same time, the history of immigration and the memory of reunification are told from the perspective of East German migrants.
