In the large-scale exhibition entitled "Artists and Prophets. A Secret History of Modern Art 1872--1972" the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt presents an in-depth appraisal of a long, yet largely unknown chapter in the history of European -- and most notably German -- art. Featuring over 400 works and accompanying exhibits, including paintings, drawings, lithographs as well as extensive and rare documentary material, the show reveals astonishing causal relationships between artists of the modern period and self-styled "prophets. The exhibition embeds these artists and prophets in a broad socio-historical context that spans a period of 100 years.
