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).

Johannes Itten & Thun: Nature in Focus 8.8
JOHANNES ITTEN & THUN: NATURE IN FOCUS 8.8.–22.11.2020 ENGLISH INTRODUCTION Johannes Itten (1888–1967) is a prominent figure in twentieth-century art history. What not many people know, however, is how much his perceptions of landscape and nature were influenced by his early years in Thun and his ramblings around Lake Thun and the surrounding area. The exhibition begins with these early days in Itten’s career and presents a number of never-before-seen paintings and drawings that document the extent to which the artist’s experience of the landscape around Thun inspired a concept of nature that was fundamental to his art, helping us to trace a trajectory from the nature studies of his youth to his work after 1940. 1 BIOGRAPHY studies again in October at weaving and teaches at the 1939 the École des Beaux-Arts in affiliated art school.

The Fire Tower Luisa Rossi Costa the Fire Tower Was a Project by Johannes Itten, One of the Most Important Exponents of the Bauhaus Movement
Elena Marchetti The Fire Tower Luisa Rossi Costa The Fire Tower was a project by Johannes Itten, one of the most important exponents of the Bauhaus movement. The aim of this paper is to describe the shape of The Fire Tower with the language of linear algebra and give a virtual reconstruction, in order to understand how Itten managed to concretise his strong mathematical intuition in an artistic form, even though he was unable to formalise it entirely with adequate instruments. Movement gives birth to form, form gives birth to movement. Every point, every line, plane, every body, every shadow, every light, every colour, are forms born of movement, which again give birth to movement. J.Itten, 1921 Introduction The “Bauhaus” artistic movement, which takes its name from the school founded by Walter Gropius in 1919, certainly occupies a very prominent position among the twentieth century currents aiming at a union between art and rationality. The artists who founded it or subsequently took part in it never neglected to juxtapose technical subjects with their artistic studies. Mathematics and geometry generally had a fair space in their school curricula and consequently came out in their artefacts at all artistic levels (painting, sculpture, textile manufacture, etc.) so much so that there are many works, where mathematical-geometrical readings can be obtained [De Michelis and Kohlmeyer 1996; Droste 1994; BAB 1999]. An intriguing example of such an approach is the project for The Fire Tower by Johannes Itten, one of the most important exponents of the movement (Figure 1). The project, frequently mentioned in his Tagebücher (Diaries) [Badura-Triska 1990], was realised as a prototype.

Heiratete Dr. Hugo Buschmann 1928, arbeitete zwischen 1929 und 1933 mit Friedl und Max Bronstein an Fotocollagepostern und Filmen für Arbeitern. Während des 2.

Sie setzte ihre Arbeit mit Innenraumgestaltung und Textilien nach dem Krieg fort. 1973 hatte sie eine persönliche Ausstellung in Berlin, verstarb in Heidelberg. Ardon Mordechai (1896 – 1992). Er war eine der Größen israelischer Kunst, (Bronstein Max) die zugleich als herausragende europäische Künstler anerkannt sind. Ausgebildet am Bauhaus, begann er 1928 mit der Berliner Novembergruppe auszustellen. Unter seinen Lehrern waren Klee, Kandinsky und Feininger. Ardon kam 1933 in Palästina an und wurde später Direktor der Bezalel Schule in Jerusalem. Er begann mit Bildern der Judäischen Hügel, wandte sich jedoch als Reaktion auf den Holocaust tragischem, metaphorischem Symbolismus zu. Später widmete er sich surrealistischem, metaphysischem Symbolismus, basierend auf Midrasch und Kabbala. Seine Reaktion auf den Holocaust war eher philosophisch als expressionistisch. Ardons Gemälde sind von einer akribisch rationalen Komposition organisiert.
