Gedächtnisstütze: Eine Gedenktafel Für Eugenie Goldstern (PDF, 5,7
Gedächtnisstütze Eine Gedenktafel für Eugenie Goldstern “In der komplizierten und wechselhaften Geschichte der mitteleuropäischen Staatenwelt stellen Fragen des ‘kollektiven Gedächtnisses’ neue und wichtige Forschungsansätze für das kulturelle Selbstverständnis ihrer Bewohner dar. Historische Gedächtnisorte (lieux de mémoire) dienen, wie dies Pierra Nora und andere im Rahmen von systematischen historischen Forschungen über Frankreich gezeigt haben, der symbolischen Vergegenwärtigung von Menschen und Personen. Sie sollen ein Gruppenbewußtsein schaffen oder erhalten. Die Untersuchung der Inhalte, Formen und Funktionen derartiger Gedächtnisorte (Bauwerke, Denkmäler, Begräbnisse, Straßennamen etc.) kann Hinweise auf Veränderungen der nationalen, religiösen, politischen, kulturellen und staatlichen Identitäten geben. ”1 Auf der Internationalen Tagung der Akademie der Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung und der Hebraic Graduate School of Europe in Berlin geht es um „Israel in Europa – Europa in Israel.” Den Schwerpunkt bilden “Die Schoa, die Krise der Geisteswissenschaften und das jüdische Erbe Europas.” Am 21.11.2009 spricht Michel Cullin, Professor für Politikwissenschaft an der Diplomatischen Akademie, Wien über „Eugenie Goldstern und der Frankojudaismus.” Der Kulturausschuss der Stadt Wien beschließt am 7.6.2011, daß Frauen durch Benennung von Straßen, Plätzen oder Parks geehrt werden : „Rosa - Weber - Weg“, „Makebagasse“, „Marianne - Pollak - Gasse“, „Hlawkastraße“, „Polkorabplatz“, „Toskaweg“, „Adelheid-Popp-Park.“2 „Die Tagung soll die kulturphilosophischen, gesellschaftlichen und politischen Aspekte des oben Aufgeführten aus der Perspektive der Schoa, der Krise der Geisteswissenschaften und des Jüdischen Erbes Europas im Spannungsfeld von Israel in Europa und Europa in Israel thematisieren. Die Frage der Verbindung zwischen Religion, Philosophie, Wissenschaft und Kunst wird im Mittelpunkt stehen, auf der Suche nach einer Kulturellen Magna Charta für Europa.”3 “Es war Eugenie Goldstern aus Bukarest, die sich auf die Hochalpen spezialisierte. -

Towards an Ideal Education for Arts and Crafts: K.K. Österreichisches Museum Für Kunst Und Industrie and Kunstgewerbeschule in Vienna Before 1900
Towards an Ideal Education for Arts and Crafts: k.k. Österreichisches Museum für Kunst und Industrie and Kunstgewerbeschule in Vienna before 1900 Tomoko Kakuyama Saitama University Abstract Focusing on the reform of k.k. Österreichisches Museum für Kunst und Industrie (the Imperial Royal Austrian Museum of Art and Industry) and the school attached to it, Kunstgewerbeschule (the School of Arts and Crafts), this study attempts to shed new light on the modernization processes within two institutions, which were preconditions for the reform of the Kunstge- werbeschule by Wiener Secession (Vienna Secession, est. 1897) artists in the 1900s in Vienna. After Secessionist artist Felician von Myrbach assumed the post of Director in 1899, he started a programme of school reform with his Secessionist colleagues Josef Hoffmann, Kolo- man Moser and Alfred Roller. The programme was heavily influenced by the artistic ideals of the Moderne. However, the statutes and curricula of the Kunstgewerbeschule were gradually revised after the 1870s in order to make them better suited to industrial needs. The first revision of the school curriculum in 1872 aimed at expanding the Preparatory Department. The aims of the second revision in 1877 were the additional development of the Preparatory Department and the reinforcement of art education at the Professional Depart- ment. The statute was revised in 1888. The departments were reorganised and atelier courses introduced in the Professional Department. The modernization of the Museum was also essential. In 1897, Arthur von Scala became its Director. Scala enthusiastically introduced English handicrafts, which he highly valued, into the Museum. Despite the conflict between Scala and the Wiener Kunstgewerbeverein (Vienna Arts and Crafts Association, est. -
