Both were running from failures in their past. Both were looking for someone to blame. Together they entered into a macabre dance to find security and a stronger identity. Whipped into a frenzied fear inflamed by the "Hitler-roar", Germany happily surrendered its voice to one man....

"The thousands of paintings, drawings, and pieces of sculpture Hans Prinzhorn gathered from German asylums in the early 1920s displayed a raw, expressive power that would change the course of art history.
