  • Review of Theyear's Work
    Review of theYear’s Work Melanie Aspey, Director of The Rothschild Archive Researchers Numerous visits to the London reading room have been made by members of an ambitious research project led by Pauline Prevost Marcilhacy. The project aims to record and catalogue the many thousand objects – pictures, jewels, statuary, objets d’art – presented to museums and gal- leries in France by members of the Rothschild family. Ulrich Leben, a member of the team, is a contributor to this issue of the Review. The Archive has received a number of publications and offprints from members of the research team, including Les Rothschild et la Commande architec- turale: collaboration ou maîtrise d’oeuvre, in Architectes et Commanditaires, Cas particuliers du XVIè au XXè edited by Tarek Berrada (Paris: Louvre, 2006); Charlotte de Rothschild, Artiste, Collectionneur et Mécène in Histoires d’Art – Mélanges en l’Honneur de Bruno Foucart, vol.ii, edited by B. Jobert, A. Goetz et S. Texier, (Paris: 2008) and Le grand Appartement de l’Hôtel St Florentin, fleuron de l’architecture néoclassique by Fabrice Ouziel in L’Estampille / L’Objet d’Art, September 2008. Sponsored by a Rothschild family trust in France, the project is a collaborative venture with the Louvre. Dr Junji Suzuki contacted the Archive in the course of his research into the development of Japanese gardens in France. Dr Suzuki had long suspected that the Japanese gardens at Boulogne-sur-Seine, the property of Baron Edmond de Rothschild, were the work of the renowned gardener Wasuke Hata. During his visit to the Archive he was able to confirm this and also identified a picture of Mr Hata in a collection of photographs presented to the Archive in 2005 by Baroness Benjamin de Rothschild.

  • 2018 Annual Report 10 Association of European Jewish Museums BUDAPEST
    www.aejm.org Annual Report association of european jewish museums Annual 2018 Report Table of Contents Preface 3 Activities 4 Grants 12 Cooperation 16 Communications 19 New Members 20 Board & Staff 21 Supporters 21 Committees 22 Association of European Jewish Museums Annual Report 2 association of european jewish museums AEJM Preface The Association of European Jewish Museums looks back on a successful year in which we organised five programmes at different locations across Europe. All its programmes have been awarded the official label of the European Year of Cultural Heritage. 2018 was the final year that AEJM and the Jewish Museum Berlin were able to benefit from a multiple-year grant from the German Federal Foreign Office, which allowed us to organise ten successful curatorial seminars in five years. The final editions of the Advanced Curatorial Education Pro- gramme were held in Frankfurt and Jerusalem. It is my pleasure to thank our organising team in Vienna, Dr. Felicitas Heimann-Jelinek and Dr. Michaela Feurstein-Prasser, for their enthusiasm and dedication that were key to turning our curatorial seminars into a success. We warmly thank our partners and sponsors, first and foremost the Rothschild Foundation Hanadiv Europe for its continuing support. Without the commitment of the following AEJM members as partner institutions, our activities could not have been successful: the Hungarian Jewish Museum and Archives in Budapest, POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw, and Museum “Jews in Latvia” in Riga, the Jewish Museum Frankfurt, and The Israel Museum in Jerusalem. The AEJM team was also instrumental in organising all our activities and I would like to thank our team in Amsterdam for all their efforts: Managing Director Eva Koppen, Communication Officer Robbie Schweiger, and Conference Coordinator Nikki Boot.

  • Global Conference for Jewish Museums
    UPHEAVAL GLOBAL CONFERENCE FOR JEWISH MUSEUMS COUNCIL OF AMERICAN JEWISH MUSEUMS ASSOCIATION OF EUROPEAN JEWISH MUSEUMS APRIL 2021 Throughout the past year of the pandemic, Jewish museums have faced unprecedented challenges and have responded. They have worked together in new configurations, have been resources for new communities, and are envisioning new ways to be museums for the present and the future. The Council of American Jewish Museums is proud to present its first online, global conference for Jewish museums­­­—developed in partnership with the Association of European Jewish Museums. This year, we are collectively unpacking the topic of Upheaval—recognizing that our profession has been greatly impacted by pressing issues and the crises of our times. At the same time, however, museums are creating their own upheavals—through innovation, reconfiguration, and approaches that will reshape our work for years to come. GLOBAL CONFERENCE FOR JEWISH MUSEUMS | APRIL 2021 2 PROGRAM TUESDAYUPHEAVAL APRIL 20 11:00 AM EDT WELCOME 11:10 AM EDT JEWISH MUSEUMS: CONTEXT MATTERS For this year’s program we have come together as a global community: to address common challenges and opportunities, to build a collegial community, and to articulate implications for the worldwide field of Jewish museums. While Jewish museums around the world share many mutual concerns, each one operates within its own geographic, political, and social realities. This session explores, from various angles, how context profoundly shapes the work of Jewish museums—from Tel Aviv and Sydney, to Hohenems and Washington, DC. Speakers AVRIL ALBA Consulting Scholar, Holocaust Memorial Museum–Sydney Jewish Museum KARA BLOND Executive Director, Capital Jewish Museum HANNO LOEWY Director, Jewish Museum Hohenems DAN TADMOR CEO, ANU—Museum of the Jewish People Moderated by BARBARA KIRSHENBLATT-GIMBLETT Ronald S.

This double function is reflected in the title of the anthology, "Kurt Schubert, the Founder". One of the youngest institutions that Kurt Schubert helped to found, the Center for Jewish Studies at the Faculty of Arts at Palacký University, is allowed the bear the Schuberts' name since 2008.

  • A Survey of Jewish Museums in Europe
    A Survey of Jewish Museums in Europe The Rothschild Foundation (Hanadiv) Europe Brigitte Sion 2016 !1 Contents I. Executive Summary 3 II. Introduction 8 III. The Questionnaire 11 IV. The sample 12 V. Major findings 18 a. Museums as multi-purpose hubs 18 b. Collaboration and partnerships 22 c. Tension between particularistic and universalistic missions 24 d. Catering to a diverse audience 27 VI. Other findings 31 VII. Conclusion 34 VIII. Bibliography 38 IX. Appendix: The Questionnaire 39 !2 I. Executive Summary The goals of the Foundation in conducting this survey were manifold: we aimed to generate a comprehensive picture of the Jewish museum landscape across Europe, and to identify the most pressing issues, challenges and needs faced by these institutions. We wanted to learn about the mission, philosophy and methodology of Jewish museums, and better understand their role and position in the cultural and educational realm at large. We were also interested in the level of professionalization of Jewish museums, both in staff training, collection preservation and cataloguing, management, and the ways in which Jewish museums communicate and arrange partnerships with one another. With a better understanding of these issues, we want now to assess the resources needed and the funding priorities for the next five to ten years. The questionnaire was sent to 120 institutions in 34 countries and we received 64 completed forms from 30 countries. The questions addressed eleven broad topics: organisation, collections, permanent and temporary exhibitions,
