In the life of Grosz, George
The whole life1922–1923
Disillusionment with the USSR and leaving the KPD
Grosz's six-month stay in the Soviet Union leaves him unimpressed; he soon ends his membership of the KPD, although his political positions change little.
1923
Chairman of the Red Group
Grosz becomes chairman of the Red Group, an association of proletarian artists formed around the satirical magazine The Cudgel, founded by the Communist Party of Germany. The group initiates and organises the first exhibition of new German art in the Soviet Union.
1924–1925
Back in Paris
Grosz lives in Paris again (in 1924–1925 and once more in 1927); at the same time his work is shown at the first exhibition of German art in Moscow.
22 May 1926
Son born: Peter M. Grosz
