The material deals with artists, art movements, art exhibits, museums, and private collections. Major topics covered include abstract expressionism, expressionism (in Germany, Austria, other European countries and the United States), cubism, surrealism and Dada, De Stijl, Bauhaus, futurism, and constructivism. Individual artists represented include Paul Klee, Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, and Hans Hofmann.
