  • DIE PROVINZ. Ein Versuch Kultureller Vermittlung Zwischen Deutschen Und Tschechen
    DIE PROVINZ. Ein Versuch kultureller Vermittlung zwischen Deutschen und Tschechen Mirek Němec Im Januar 1924 erschien im Weimarer Utopia-Verlag die erste Nummer der Zeitschrift DIE PROVINZ. MONATSSCHRIFT FÜR DIE TSCHECHOSLOWAKEI. Der Gründer und Besitzer des Verlags – Dr. Bruno Adler (= Urban Roedl) – wird neben Dr. Ernst Sommer und Ernst Bergauer, „sämtliche in Karlsbad“ (DIE PROVINZ 1924/1: 32), wo auch die Zeitschrift gedruckt wurde, als Herausgeber genannt. Die kulturpolitische Revue bekam den Titel DIE PROVINZ, denn „nicht der Welt und der Menschheit, sondern der Provinz ist diese Zeitschrift gewidmet“ (ANONYM 1924: 2). Der einfache Titel war auch Programm und verrät viel über die Intention der Herausgeber. Es ist daher aufschlussreich, die Bedeu- tung des Wortes ‚Provinz‘ zu interpretieren. Sie verschob sich im Laufe der Zeit und ist nicht eindeutig. Zunächst bezeichneten die alten Römer damit ein Gebiet, welches sich außerhalb vom römischen Stammland befand, aber im- merhin noch in ihrem Herrschaftsbereich lag. Später wurde mit dem Begriff allgemein ein größeres Gebiet bezeichnet, welches eine staatliche oder kirchli- che Verwaltungseinheit bildete. Im Laufe der Zeit änderte sich die Bedeutung des Wortes Provinz und bezeichnete nun den Gegenpol der Metropole oder des Zentrums. Diese Bedeutung war auch für die Herausgeber der Zeitschrift rele- vant. Für sie stand die Provinz in einer Opposition zur Großstadt, zum Fort- schritt und der Moderne. Sie zeichnete sich durch Rückständigkeit, durch An- timoderne und Kulturpessimismus, durch Heimatideologie und Heimatkunst, durch Konservatismus und Enge aus (MECKLENBURG 1982: 16f). In diesem Sinne war DIE PROVINZ für die Herausgeber ein Hoffnungsträger. Bruno Adler sah, unter Bezugnahme auf Oswald Spengler, in der PROVINZ die mögliche Rettung des Abendlandes (ROEDL 1924: 12–16).

On the basis of extensive scientific research, the Moholy-Nagy room was virtually reconstructed with approximately 300 exhibits. The exhibition Film und Foto took its starting point in 1929 in Stuttgart, but was opened only a short time later in the Kunstgewerbemuseum (today: Gropius Bau) in Berlin. In the inner courtyard of the museum, large parti- tion walls were erected to present the numerous photo exhibits.

  • Art for All: Photographs to Touch a Tactile Image Kit
    Art For All: Photographs to Touch A Tactile Image Kit Elysée Lausanne Art For All: Photographs to Touch Elysée Lausanne A Tactile Image Kit 2/912/14 Art For All: Photographs to Touch A Tactile Image Kit For a Tactile Approach to Photography Convinced that access to art is a fundamental right, the Musée de l’Élysée has created an innovative project aimed at making photography accessible to blind audiences. Around thirty important works from the Museum’s collections have been transcribed into tactile images and posted online, making them accessible to blind audiences worldwide. Entitled Art For All: Photographs to Touch and designed with the invaluable collaboration of the Centre pédagogique pour élèves handicapés de la vue (CPHV) in Lausanne, this project offers a sensory approach to the image through the fingers instead of the eyes, thanks to a transformation of the photographic image making its different forms, subjects and contrasts palpable - and thus readable. Wishing to offer inclusive activities fostering dialogue and sharing, the Musée de l’Élysée conceived this kit as a tool that can be used by two people or more. It aims to enhance cooperation and dialogue between blind and sighted people, allowing them to discover photography and its heritage together. The activity begins with the reading of the text, introducing the artwork. It details the composition of the image and places the photograph in its historical, technical and aesthetic context. Then, the analysis of the tactile image starts. Along with its legend in braille, the duo decrypts the various elements of the artwork. The tactile images can be downloaded as a kit, and printed individually in A4 format with a tactile image printer.

  • A “Schooling of the Senses”: Post-Dada Visual Experiments in the Bauhaus Photomontages of László Moholy-Nagy and Marianne Brandt
    A “Schooling of the Senses”: Post-Dada Visual Experiments in the Bauhaus Photomontages of László Moholy-Nagy and Marianne Brandt Elizabeth Otto As Lucia Moholy told the story, at some point during the mid-1920s she asked her husband, László Moholy-Nagy, if he had noticed that his Bauhaus student Marianne Brandt was in love with him. He replied simply—and surely with an unrecorded note of irony in his voice—“whoever loves me must work for me.”1 In this essay I analyze the confl uence of ideas in the visually provocative photo- montages of Moholy-Nagy and Brandt. Photomontage has been extensively investigated as a medium of choice of Berlin Dadaists and Russian constructiv- ists, but its use among the artists and designers of the Bauhaus has received almost no scholarly attention; to rectify this, I explore the work of two of the boldest practitioners of photomontage at the Bauhaus. In so doing, I estab- lish their links to earlier montage movements—Dadaism in particular—as well as to the pictorial concerns addressed in Moholy-Nagy’s theories of the New Vision and to issues of gender identity relevant to both artists’ works. I also offer in-depth interpretations of key examples of Moholy-Nagy’s and My gratitude goes to Matthew Biro, Oliver Botar, Andreas Huyssen, Hattula Moholy-Nagy, Anson Rabinbach, Lisa Silverman, and Tobias Westermann for valuable feedback on earlier versions of this essay and to the Gender Institute at the State University of New York at Buffalo for supporting this project. Unless otherwise noted, all translations are mine.

Opaque watercolor, charcoal and touches of graphite with collage of cut printed and colored papers on off-white wove paper. Harvard Art Museums/Busch- Reisinger Museum, Gift of the artist, BR48.101. © Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York/VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn. Cambridge, MA February 5, 2019 The Harvard Art Museums present The Bauhaus and Harvard, an exhibition of nearly 200 works by more than 70 artists, drawn almost entirely from the Busch-Reisinger Museum’s extensive Bauhaus collection. The presentation coincides with the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Bauhaus—the 20th century’s most influential school of art, architecture, and design—and highlights the unique connections between the school and Harvard University. Featuring works by major artists, including Anni and Josef Albers, Herbert Bayer, Marcel Breuer, Lyonel Feininger, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, and László Moholy-Nagy, the exhibition presents rarely seen student exercises, iconic design objects, photographs, textiles, typography, paintings, architectural drawings, studies, sculpture, and archival materials. It explores the school’s pioneering curriculum, the ways its workshops sought to revolutionize the experience of everyday life, the widespread influence of Bauhaus instruction in America, and Harvard’s own Graduate Center (1950), designed by Walter Gropius’s firm The Architects Collaborative. The Bauhaus was founded in Weimar, Germany, in 1919 by merging the city’s schools of fine and applied arts.

  • Who's Afraid of Women Photographers? 1839-1945
    Musée d’Orsay: Who’s Afraid of Women... http://www.musee-orsay.fr/en/events/exhib... 07/12/2015 13:47 Who's Afraid of Women Photographers? 1839-1945 Second Part: 1918-1945 Women Photographers ? Being a woman photographer post-World War I involved conquering new genres and fields. It entailed contributing to the emergence of modern photography and being part of the creative ferment of the cultural hotspots of Paris, Berlin, Budapest, London, New York and San Francisco. Some of these women were now looking through the viewfinder, having previously been subjects for the lens. Being a woman photographer was also about carving out a role in the theory of photography and in writing its history. Women photographers played an active role in the institutionalisation of the medium by organising exhibitions in salons and galleries, by setting up schools and running commercial studios or photo agencies. For women, photography was now a multifaceted profession with a multitude of applications. Margaret Bourke-White Self-portrait with camera Being a woman photographer was also about setting © Digital Image Museum up training and mutual assistance networks against Associates/LACMA/Art Resource a backdrop of great social mobility on an NY/Scala, Florence international scale and keen rivalry with men. Shared spaces, titles and status gave rise to anxiety, tension and conflicts. Fellow male professionals, critics, historians, journalists, and even sometimes husbands, strove to paint these women, who were also blurring the boundaries of the traditional division of labour and gender roles, as rivals. The exhibition tour, which leaves the confines of the studio and engages with the world, aims to show, against the backdrop of a ravaged Europe, how women embraced the photographic medium as part of an artistic and professional empowerment strategy and conquered territories which were previously the preserve of men.

  • The Poetics of Eye and Lens
    The Poetics of Eye and Lens Michel Frizot This study arose from the observation of a selection of pictures in the Thomas Walther Collection at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, mainly dating from the 1920s, which give a central role to the human eye gazing at the viewer. The prevalence of this theme in the Walther Collection emphasizes the conceptual allegiance between this collection and the New Vision. An idea, typical of the New Vision, emerges from these pictures — a concept of the new medium of photography and its relationship to the eye and the hand. In this concept, the photographic record- ing process fully replaces the hand’s gesture, and the eye’s optical role is transferred to the lens. This model — the analogy of the eye and lens — dates back to the seventeenth century, when it arose in relation to the camera obscura. It is an analogy between the structure of the eye, as observed by dissection, and that of the camera obscura, which was designed in imitation of the eye (with the chamber’s lens equivalent to the lens of the eye).1 In the early days of photo- graphy, when the camera obscura was adapted from its role as an aid to drawing to instead directly record an image on a photosensitive surface, the analogy became even more relevant, and it was broadly explored by commentators on the new medium. It reappeared in the context of the 1920s avant-garde in a more theoretical and technological form, as an eye-lens analogy and a new eye-photograph combina- tion: one of the artistic developments of modernity.

I would like to express gratitude to the Institute of Art and Visual History at the Humboldt University, Berlin, for its support.
