After release from internment, Dachinger exhibited at German-Jewish émigré Jack Bilbo’s Modern Art Gallery in 1942, and alongside fellow Austrian artists at the Redfern and Leger Galleries (1941–1945), also working as an inventor and designer for various publishing companies. He maintained close ties with the émigré network. The sculptor and German émigré Paul Hamman (1891–1973) and his artist wife Hilde (1898–1987), both former members of the Hamburger Secession, settled in England in 1937. Hamann invented a painless technique for life masks and exhibited at the FGLC’s Exhibition of Twentieth Century Art (New Burlington Galleries, 1938); both were included in the First Group Exhibition of German, Austrian, Czechoslovakian Painters and Sculptors (Wertheim Gallery, 1939).
