Culture, Language & Politics
Eleni Ganiti ([email protected]) PhD candidate in Art History, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of History and Archaeology, Faculty of Philosophy The Military Dictatorship of April 1967 in Greece and its repercussion on the Greek visual arts scene. Introduction The 21st of April, 1967 has been a portentous date in the history of modern Greece, as a group of right – wing army officers seized power, imposing a regime of military dictatorship, also known as the Regime of the Colonels or the Junta. The dictatorship came after a period of political instability in the country, intercepting the normal course of things at the political, social and economical sector. Obviously this kind of disorder could not leave the cultural life of the country unaffected. The imposing of the dictatorship had a strong impact on the evolution of the visual arts in Greece, mainly because it came at a time when Greek art, for the first time in the modern years, was finding its pace. The desire for synchronization with the international art was being finally fulfilled and for the first time Greek artists were part of the international avant guard. The visual arts scene was flourishing, the audience’s interest was growing and the future seemed promising and optimistic. Then the Junta came to interrupt this upswing. In this presentation we will attempt to explore: i) the effects of the dictatorship on the Greek visual arts scene and the artistic production of the period ii) the reaction of the art world mainly through exhibitions and works of Greek artists that were created and exhibited in the country during the seven years of the Military Regime. -
Zwischen Propaganda Und Unterhaltung : Das Kino in Der Schweiz Zur Zeit Des Ersten Weltkriegs
Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2017 Zwischen Propaganda und Unterhaltung : das Kino in der Schweiz zur Zeit des Ersten Weltkriegs Gerber, Adrian Abstract: In den 1910er Jahren entstand das moderne Kino als populäre Unterhaltungsform. Während des Ersten Weltkriegs begannen die Krieg führenden Staaten, das neuartige Medium systematisch für Propagandazwecke zu nutzen. Als Bestandteil eines massenmedialen Ensembles sollten Filme auf die öffentliche Meinung einwirken. Geografisch inmitten des Kriegsgeschehens gelegen, spielte die Informa- tionsdrehscheibe Schweiz im weltweiten Propagandakrieg eine prominente Rolle. So betrieb etwa das deutsche Auswärtige Amt über Tarnfirmen mehrere Kinos in der Schweiz. Die Filme, mit denen sowohl die Mittelmächte als auch die Alliierten den schweizerischen Filmmarkt überschwemmten, hatten gegen- sätzliche Auswirkungen: Einerseits verschärften die sie begleitenden öffentlichen Debatten die Spannun- gen im Land; andererseits führte der Abwehrreflex gegen ausländische Beeinflussung zum Wunsch nach einem eigenen nationalen Filmschaffen. Die Studie beschreibt die Anfänge der modernen Filmkultur in der Schweiz und gibt einen Überblick über die Etablierung von Filmmarkt und Kinoöffentlichkeit; insbesondere rekonstruiert sie die Rezeption der international zirkulierenden Propagandafilme zwischen 1914 und 1918. Damit beleuchtet der Autor die bisher nur in Grundzügen bekannte frühe Schweizer Film- und Kinogeschichte im Spannungsfeld von Unterhaltung und gezielter politischer Einflussnahme.

Books and Reading Year 2005 News
Books and Reading Year 2005 News JANUARY 05.01.05 The Three Kings, readers and socially committed, open the Books and Reading Year for the very young The first words of their majesties were in memory of all the children who, a few days earlier, had suffered from the devastating waves of the tsunami. And, just as King Melchior asked of them, the boys and girls of Barcelona sent a wave of kisses to the children in south eastern Asia and their families. The Three Kings of Orient arrived in Barcelona on the afternoon of 5th January. This was the beginning of a magical night: among the presents, this year they bore hundreds of adventures printed in story books. 350,000 people were waiting for them in the streets of the city. Melchior, Gaspar and Balthazar arrived in the Port of Barcelona at 5.30 pm on board the boat Santa Eulàlia. As is traditional they were welcomed by the Mayor of Barcelona, Joan Clos, who gave them the keys of the city so that they could enter all the houses and leave the presents. Also in keeping with an old tradition, he offered them bread and salt, in memory of a time when the town was enclosed by walls and the Governing Council, known as the —Consell de Cent,“ distributed bread to eat and salt to preserve food. Clos thanked the Kings for their visit and this year asked them to carry books as well as toys so that —the very young would get used to reading and learn to explore imaginary worlds“. -

To grasp the tiny table to place it next to the window to instal! my typewriter on it enab!ing the thought to penetrate the pillage of the silence writing... Georges Lillis 1 RÉSUMÉ Traditionnellement l'Allemagne n'était pas un pays d'accueil d'immigrants mais bien de travailleurs invités {Garstarbeiter) dont plusieurs étaient d'origine grecque. Certains sont même devenus des écrivains exemplaires d'une littérature que certains appellent «d'immigration» parmi d'autres appellations. I..:article qui suit nous offre un rare survol de la scène littéraire de la diaspora grecque en Allemagne depuis l'après-guerre jusqu'à nos jours. De plus, l'auteur traite des différentes appellations données à cette littérature des immigrants présents dans le paysage littéraire de l'Allemagne et de la Grèce. ABSTRACT Germany may net be considered a country of immigration but it has certainly been a country of guest workers {Ga rstarbeiter). Many of these were Greek immigrants who were writers or became wrirers. Their literacure has been called 'immigration literature' among other labels. This article considers the various labels and describes the Greek immigrants active in the literary landscape of Germany and even Greece. The author provides a rare, sweeping overview of the scene from the early post-war period to coday.

L'art De La Condensation
Communiqué de presse (10 décembre 2020) Gezeichnet 2020 – Les meilleurs dessins de presse suisses de l’année (11.12.2020-07.02.2021) L’art de la condensation Les dessins de presse ont l’art de raconter une histoire en une seule image. Ils montrent avec humour l’absurdité de la vie quotidienne et nous incitent à réfléchir. Gezeichnet 2020 donne à voir les meilleurs dessins de presse suisses de l’année qui se termine au Musée de la communication jusqu’au 7 février 2021. En 2015, l’attentat perpétré contre le journal satirique Charlie Hebdo nous a tous bouleversés. Depuis, la liberté d’expression et ses limites font l’objet d’âpres discussions, et le dessin politique a gagné en visibilité. La question du sens des caricatures dans la démocratie est revenue sous les feux de l’actualité avec l’ouverture du procès des complices des auteurs de l’attentat de Charlie Hebdo et la récente série d’attaques terroristes. Ces événements montrent bien que le dessin de presse possède une force explosive. Le grand art des dessinateurs de presse est de raconter toute une histoire dans une seule image. Il réclame une exagération des événements. Les dessinateurs nous mettent face à l’absurdité des choses que nous acceptons trop souvent comme normales. Dans de rares cas, ils déclenchent des conflits, rendent douloureusement visibles des tensions sociales sous-jacentes. Surtout lorsque des fanatiques sortent les dessins de leur contexte et les instrumentalisent. Mais plus souvent, les dessins de presse nous rapprochent. Rire ensemble d’une pointe fait du bien et unit. -

Rectifying Emil G. Bührle's Complex Legacy | WOZ Die Wochenzeitung
Rectifying Emil G. Bührleʼs complex legAcy | WOZ Die Wochenzeitung 26.11.20 0834 19.11.2020 HISTORICAL DISPUTE Rectifying Emil G. Bührle’s complex legacy For the first time, a study draws clear connections between the weapons business and the art collecting of Emil Georg Bührle. Two expert evaluations confirm that there was unacceptable interference in the report. Why the controversy does not harm the reappraisal of the Bührle history. By Kaspar Surber Any child immediately understands impressionist paintings: you can always look at a picture twice, once from a distance and once up close; first as an overall impression, then as a magnified image of surfaces and points. But it always remains the same picture. The reappraisal of the history of Emil Georg Bührle (1890–1956), who amassed a fortune by producing weapons for the Nazis and invested it in impressionist masterpieces, can also be viewed according to this logic: from a distance, as a general report, and then in detail, as a dispute over individual words and formulations. The effect is dizzying. Because whether you stand far away or examine the details, the problem with Bührle only gets bigger and bigger. Controversial findings Presentation of the report with representatives of This week, the eagerly awaited report of a University of Zurich, Christian Schwarzenegger, Matthieu research project about Bührle was presented in a Leimgruber and Beat Müller; Mayor Corine Mauch and press conference. The aim of the project was to Cantonal councilor Jacqueline Fehr. investigate and review the history of the FOTO: FLORIAN BACHMANN collection’s origins, just in time for the opening of an extension to the Kunsthaus museum in Zurich. -
