Emergency Money is the first art historical study of Germany's emergency money, or Notgeld. Issued during World War I and the tumultuous inter war period, these wildly artful banknotes featured landscapes, folk figures, scenes of violence and humor, and even inflation itself in the form of figures staring into empty purses or animals defecating coins. Until now, art historians have paid Notgeld scant attention, but Wilkinson looks closely at these amusing, often disturbing artifacts and their grim associations to cast new light on the Weimar Republic's visual culture, as well as the larger relationship between art and money.
