Answer

The term "Degenerate Art" was coined by the Nazi regime in Germany to describe modern art that they deemed to be subversive, immoral, or un-German. It encompassed a wide range of artistic styles and movements, including Expressionism, Cubism, Dadaism, and Surrealism. The Nazis believed that these art forms were a threat to German culture and sought to suppress them through censorship, confiscation, and public condemnation.
