GRUNDIG,LEA (1906–1977) and HANS (1901–1958), Germanpainters and graphic artists. Both were born in Dresden. Lea Grundig, born LeaLanger, began to study at the Dresden Academy of Arts in 1922. Already involvedwith the association of Communist students, she became a member of the GermanCommunist Party (KPD) in 1926. Two years later, she married Hans Grundig, alsoa member of the Communist Party, and they both began to create posters andillustrations for Communist purposes. Lea Grundig focused on linolcuts,etchings, and drawings in a late-expressionist style describing the milieu ofthe lower classes, as in Mutter und Kind vor der Fabrik of 1933(\"Mother and Child in Front of the Factory\"). Hans Grundig wasrecognized first for painted group portraits, like KPD – Versammlung(\"Meeting of the German Communist Party,\" 1932, Neue Nationalgalerie,Berlin) in the neorealist style of the Neue Sachlichkeit, but soonturned to expressionist etching. In the mid-1930s, he created a series ofallegories, human and brutish monsters in etching in which he denounced theNational Socialist system as based on all-embracing terror. Both Hans und LeaGrundig were persecuted by the National Socialist authorities and had to giveup working as artists. Lea was deported but managed to flee to Palestine in1940, where she created several series of etchings related to the Holocaust.Hans Grundig was incarcerated and sent to the concentration camp ofSachsenhausen in 1940. He survived and met his wife again in 1949, when shereturned to Dresden. She became a professor at the local Academy of Fine Arts.From the 1950s, they both adapted the style of socialist realism and took anactive part in visualizing the ideology of the German Democratic Republic. A displaced personscamp or DP camp is a temporary facility for displaced persons coerced intoforced migration. The term is mainly used for camps established after World WarII in West Germany and in Austria, as well as in the United Kingdom, primarilyfor refugees from Eastern Europe and for the former inmates of the Nazi Germanconcentration camps. Even two years after the end of World War II in Europe,some 850,000 people still lived in DP camps across Western Europe, among themArmenians, Poles, Latvians, Lithuanians, Estonians, Yugoslavs, Greeks,Ukrainians and Czechoslovaks From 1945 to 1952, more than 250,000 Jewish displacedpersons (DPs) lived in camps and urban centers in Germany, Austria, and Italy.These facilities were administered by Allied authorities and the United NationsRelief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA). Among the concerns facingthese Jewish DPs in the years following the Holocaust were the problems ofdaily life in the displaced persons camps, Zionism, and emigration. TheHolocaust (from the Greek ὁλόκαυστος holókaustos: hólos,\"whole\" and kaustós, \"burnt\")also known as the Shoah(Hebrew:, HaShoah, \"catastrophe\"; Yiddish:, Churben or Hurban,from the Hebrew for \"destruction\"), was the mass murder or genocideof approximately six million Jews during World War II, a programme ofsystematic state-sponsored murder by Nazi Germany, led by Adolf Hitler and theNazi Party, throughout German-occupied territory.Of the nine million Jews whohad resided in Europe before the Holocaust, approximately two-thirds werekilled.Over one million Jewish children were killed in the Holocaust, as wereapproximately two million Jewish women and three million Jewish men. A networkof over 40,000 facilities in Germany and German-occupied territory were used toconcentrate, hold, and kill Jews and other victims.Some scholars argue that themass murder of the Romani and people with disabilities should be included inthe definition,and some use the common noun \"holocaust\" to describeother Nazi mass murders, including those of Soviet prisoners of war, Polish andSoviet civilians, and homosexuals.Recent estimates based on figures obtainedsince the fall of the Soviet Union indicates some ten to eleven millioncivilians and prisoners of war were intentionally murdered by the Naziregime.The persecution and genocide were carried out in stages. Various laws toremove the Jews from civil society, most prominently the Nuremberg Laws of1935, were enacted in Germany before the outbreak of World War II in Europe.Concentration camps were established in which inmates were subjected to slavelabor until they died of exhaustion or disease. Where Germany conquered newterritory in Eastern Europe, specialized paramilitary units called Einsatzgruppenmurdered Jews and political opponents in mass shootings. The occupiers requiredJews and Romani to be confined in overcrowded ghettos before being transportedby freight train to extermination camps where, if they survived the journey,most were systematically killed in gas chambers. Every arm of Germany\'sbureaucracy was involved in the logistics that led to the genocides, turningthe Third Reich into what one Holocaust scholar has called \"a genocidalstate\".
