About the exhibiting artists
Kolos-Vari is listed in the catalogue as "Sandor Kolos-Vari" in error; the exhibitor was Sigismond Kolos-Vari. Sandor (Alexandre) Kolozsváry was Sigismond's elder brother, also a printmaker, but he did not work at Atelier 17 (confirmed by Julia Cserba, October 2026). "Werner" is listed without a first name; linked here to Werner von Alvensleben.
