Curators Lynette Roth and Peter Murphy provide an overview of the exhibition "Made in Germany? Art and Identity in a Global Nation," on view at the Harvard Art Museums September 13, 2024–January 5, 2025.

The exhibition offers a range of reflections on German national identity, which was shaped by labor migration following World War II, the unification of East and West Germany in 1990, and the influx of asylum seekers to the country since 2015. As the pointedly interrogative title suggests, "Made in Germany?" asks, rather than offers ready answers to, the question of who or what represents Germany today.
