Press Kit Program 2016 mumok Annual Press Conference 2016 Statement by the Directors We have planned an ambitious program for the next few years, which combines Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien three strands: the presentation of our own collection, exhibitions of outstanding Museumsplatz 1, 1070 Wien international art, and the strengthening of the Austrian art and cultural scene. Our program includes both unique individual positions since modernism—as in our Annual Press Conference 2016 retrospective of the work of Július Koller in the coming year—and also complex January 20, 2016, 10 am thematic exhibitions that we see as our contribution to international discourse in art history–such as our group show Painting 2.0, and also the ongoing review of our Statement by Karola Kraus and own collection, as we open our museum up to new generations. Cornelia Lamprechter An overview of exhibitions in 2016 New acquisitions in 2015 It remains a great challenge to continue to present a quality program of exhibitions Detailed exhibition program and events and at the same time remain true to our commitment to expand our Press contact collection, while securing and gaining the necessary financial means. State budgets Karin Bellmann are far below our requirements, and it remains essential to enter into new T +43 1 52500-1400 [email protected] cooperation agreements and find additional funding. We are particularly pleased that we have begun a new partnership with the Kapsch AG, a wonderful partner with Katja Kulidzhanova T +43 1 52500-1450 whom this year we will present the first Kapsch Contemporary Art Prize for young katja.kulidzhanova @mumok.at artists living and working in Austria. In 2015 we were able to gain gifts to the value of more than 700,000 EUR, and also to expand this field of business with the Fax +43 1 52500-1300 [email protected] mumok Editions of artists who were shown in the museum last year. www.mumok.at Notwithstanding these great successes, we must emphasize that our essential work is threatened by the fact that our basic funding has not been increased—not even in line with inflation—for several years. The reserves that we have been able to establish will be exhausted over the next two years. If our basic funding is not increased, mumok will face a serious challenge to its ability to fulfil its cultural and political mission as a museum, and to maintain present structures. Karola Kraus, academic and artistic managing director, and Cornelia Lamprechter, business managing director 1 Press release, January 27, 2016 Preview: The Exhibition Year 2016 at mumok In 2016, mumok will begin the exhibition year with a new look at Vienna Actionism, by relating it to its no less radical predecessors from the early twentieth century. Through the summer months, Painting 2.0: Expression in the Information Age will show how painting since the 1960s has continually renewed itself. Following this, we will focus on an artists’ artist in our retrospective of the work of Július Koller. The year will also see exhibitions of younger artists Eloise Hawser and Kathi Hofer, and the duo Pakui Hardware. This year’s presentation of the mumok’s own collection will focus on two pioneers of modernism in Vienna, Werner Hofmann and Viktor Matejka, and then from November we will be offering an insight into the generous gifts given by the collectors Gertraud and Dieter Bogner. In 2016, the Kapsch Contemporary Art Prize will be awarded for the first time—through the Kapsch Contemporary Art Challenge. This prize is aimed at young artists living and working in Austria. The mumok kino will present a varied program with thematic film series, solo and new presentations, and numerous projects in cooperation. We kick off with a double opening on March 4, 2016. The exhibition Body, Psyche, and Taboo: Vienna Actionism and Early Vienna Modernism compares and contrasts actions by Günter Brus, Otto Muehl, Hermann Nitsch, and Rudolf Schwarzkogler with works by their no less radical predecessors—from Gustav Klimt to Richard Gerstl, Oskar Kokoschka and Koloman Moser, to Anton Romako, Max Oppenheimer, and Egon Schiele. At the same time, the museum’s Level –2 is devoted to an encounter between the artists Eloise Hawser and Kathi Hofer. In their joint exhibition HAWSER / HOFER, they both take a critical and contemporary view of the concept of nostalgia. From June 4, the exhibition Painting 2.0: Expression in the Information Age places our sustained interest in contemporary painting and the continuous expansion of digital technologies within a surprising historical context. This exhibition goes back to the dawn of the information age in the 1960s and shows how progressive painting was already then developing productive forms of crossover with mass culture and its media. From the arrival of television to the so-called internet revolution, painting has always succeeded in integrating the mechanisms that seemed to herald its own death. With more than two hundred artworks by more than one hundred artists, Painting 2.0 tells the story of painting from the 1960s to the present. In their first solo show in a museum in Austria, the artist duo Pakui Hardware transform mumok into an incubator for still unknown (hybrid) beings of the future. This is all inspired by science fiction films of the 1970s, and by synthetic biology, leading to Pakui Hardware’s scenario of possible new lifeforms and lifestyles. From summer 2016, mumok’s new presentation from its own collection, entitled We Pioneers: Trailblazers of Postwar Modernism, will explore the sustained influence of Werner Hofmann, founder director of the Museum of the 20th Century (today’s 2 Press release, January 27, 2016 mumok), and of Viktor Matejka, Vienna’s first postwar councilor for culture, looking at how these two men helped to open Austria up to modernist and contemporary art. On the invitation of mumok, collectors Getraud and Dieter Bogner, working together with curator Rainer Fuchs, will draw on the collection they have been donating to the museum since 2007 to present a new exhibition that focuses on the “contents” of these largely abstract and conceptual works. Entitled Construction_Reflection: Works from the Getraud and Dieter Bogner Collection at mumok , this will be on show from November 25, 2016. Toward the end of the exhibition year, we will present the first prize winners of the Kapsch Contemporary Art Prize, on show from October 22, 2016. A month later, from November 25, 2016, mumok will be showing the hitherto largest retrospective of the work of Slovak artist Július Koller, presenting his entire oeuvre since the early 1960s. The three curators Daniel Grúň, Kathrin Rhomberg, and Georg Schöllhammer have undertaken the first comprehensive scholarly review of all the archive materials associated with Koller and his work, enabling a true appreciation of the artist’s remarkable achievement. Retrospective: New Acquisitions 2015 Gifts and New Acquisitions from Devoted Funds In 2015, mumok was able to acquire installations, paintings, photographs, and film and videos by the following artists: Mladen Bizumic, Dara Birnbaum, Günter Brus, Carola Dertnig, DIE DAMEN, Ion Grigorescu, Julia Haller, Christian Hutzinger, Roland Kollnitz, David Lieske, Natalia LL, Christian Philipp Müller, Ulrike Müller, Nam June Paik, Dan Perjovschi, Laure Prouvost, Jörg Schlick, Thomas Stimm and Wolf Vostell.

  • Operetta After the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen a Dissertation
    Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Elaine Tennant Spring 2013 © 2013 Ulrike Petersen All Rights Reserved Abstract Operetta after the Habsburg Empire by Ulrike Petersen Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair This thesis discusses the political, social, and cultural impact of operetta in Vienna after the collapse of the Habsburg Empire. As an alternative to the prevailing literature, which has approached this form of musical theater mostly through broad surveys and detailed studies of a handful of well‐known masterpieces, my dissertation presents a montage of loosely connected, previously unconsidered case studies. Each chapter examines one or two highly significant, but radically unfamiliar, moments in the history of operetta during Austria’s five successive political eras in the first half of the twentieth century. Exploring operetta’s importance for the image of Vienna, these vignettes aim to supply new glimpses not only of a seemingly obsolete art form but also of the urban and cultural life of which it was a part. My stories evolve around the following works: Der Millionenonkel (1913), Austria’s first feature‐length motion picture, a collage of the most successful stage roles of a celebrated

  • Goethe in Dachau“
    Jörg Wollenberg „Goethe in Dachau“. Das Konzentrationslager als Lernort zur Selbstbehauptung in Grenzsituationen Beitrag zur 27. Konferenz des Arbeitskreises zur Aufarbeitung historischer Quellen der Erwachsenenbildung – Deutschland – Österreich – Schweiz - vom 20. bis 23. November 2007 im Wissensturm Linz/Österreich Musikalischer Einstieg: Aus der Mauthausen Trilogie von Mikis Theodorakis (CD 2000 Verlag ‚pläne’88840). In Erinnerung an die Befreiung am 7. Mai 1945, 1995 uraufgeführt im KZ Mauthausen; Nr. 1: Das Hohelied („Ihr Mädchen aus Auschwitz, Ihr Mädchen aus Dachau, Habt ihr meine Liebste nicht gesehn?“, gesungen von Elinoar Moav Veniadis, Auszug aus dem Stück von 3.33 Minuten). Dazu Folie 1: Programm des Osterkonzerts im KZ Sachsenhausen im Block 28 am 26. April 1943 mit Beteiligung des tschechischen Streichquartetts unter Leitung von Bohumir Cervinka (vgl. Kuna,1998, S.260). Das nicht weit von Linz entfernte, kurz nach dem „Anschluss“ Österreichs an das „Dritte Reich“ eingerichtete KZ Mauthausen erlangte mit seinen rund 40 Außenlagern in der ersten Kriegshälfte mit der Lagerstufe III die politische Funktion eines Tötungslagers, in dem mehr als die Hälfte der über 200.000 Häftlinge aus Europa und den USA zwischen 1938 und 1945 ums Leben kamen. Mehrere tausend Häftlinge wurden ab Sommer 1941 im Rahmen der Aktion 14 f 13 in die am Rande von Linz gelegene Tötungsanstalt Hartheim gebracht und mittels Giftgas erstickt.1 Selbst nach der Umwandlung in ein Zwangsarbeitslager für die Rüstungsindustrie verzeichnete die Lagerleitung Todesraten ab 1942 von 30 bis 40 Prozent. Im Gegensatz zu den anderen großen Konzentrationslagern und Ghettos im „Deutschen Reich“ blieben die individuellen Überlebensstrategien der Häftlinge in Mauthausen auch deshalb eingeschränkt, weil sie kaum auf kulturelle Freizeitaktivitäten zurückgreifen konnten.

  • The First Half of the Twentieth Century Brought About Many Changes In
    HEIMAT AND MEMORY IN THE CITY: REPRESENTATIONS OF NEW YORK CITY AND VIENNA IN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL WORKS OF EXILED VIENNESE AUTHORS A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German By Wendy Sue Wilson, B.A. Washington, DC June 15, 2009 Copyright 2009 by Wendy Sue Wilson All Rights Reserved ii HEIMAT AND MEMORY IN THE CITY: REPRESENTATIONS OF NEW YORK CITY AND VIENNA IN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL WORKS OF EXILED VIENNESE AUTHORS Wendy Sue Wilson, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Friederike Eigler, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates the notion of Heimat as it intersects with memory through representations of Vienna and New York City (NYC). I contend that characteristics of NYC allow exiles to (re)discover elements of their former Heimat, as they come to terms with their new lives in the United States. Moreover, I offer two new perspectives on the notion of Heimat. First, it is a fluid notion that can change under the influence of new circumstances and second, cityscape rather than landscape or nature plays a significant role in its development. To show this, I have examined Franzi Ascher‟s memoir – Bilderbuch aus der Fremde, Friedrich Heydenau‟s exile novel – Auf und ab, and Elisabeth Freundlich‟s autobiography – Die fahrenden Jahre. Ascher, Heydenau, and Freundlich spent the majority of their exile from the Third Reich in NYC and their works offer ample opportunity to examine representations of both cities. This dissertation assesses the influence and function of the notion of Heimat and memory in their representations and considers how do they shape or maintain identity.

So did university professors, and with good reason. Prior to 1938, Austrian universities had been hotbeds of German nationalism. There were numerous vicious attacks against Jewish students, but the professors looked the other way. By their silence, they encouraged the attacks. As 1988 approached, there was a consensus amongst Austrian professors, particularly by those working in the humanities, that we must never again fail to speak out against the dangers of intolerance or racism.

  • Der Erste Österreichertransport in Das KZ Dachau 1938
    Wolfgang Neugebauer Peter Schwarz Stacheldraht, mit Tod geladen … Der erste Österreichertransport in das KZ Dachau 1938 Wolfgang Neugebauer Peter Schwarz Stacheldraht, mit Tod geladen … Der erste Österreichertransport in das KZ Dachau 1938 Herausgegeben von der Arbeitsgemeinschaft der KZ-Verbände und Widerstandskämpfer Österreichs Redaktion: Christine Schindler Die Herausgabe dieser Broschüre wurde durch den Nationalfonds der Republik Österreich für Opfer des Nationalsozialismus gefördert. © 2008, Arbeitsgemeinschaft der KZ-Verbände und Widerstandskämpfer Österreichs, Wien Cover: Ernst Eisenmayer Layout: Christa Mehany-Mitterrutzner Druck: S.Print, 1220 Wien ISBN 978-3-901142-53-6 Vorwort Als am Morgen des 12. März 1938 die Truppen der Hitler-Wehrmacht Österreichs Grenzen überschritten, wussten die NS-Gegner, gleich ob sie Anhänger der Regierung Schuschnigg waren oder in der illegalen Arbeiter- bewegung in Opposition zur Regierung standen, dass es keine Hoffnung mehr auf die Erhaltung der Unabhängigkeit Österreichs gab. Noch bevor die deutsche Wehrmacht in Wien eingetroffen ist, waren schon NS-Greifkommandos unterwegs, um die Verhaftungslisten des unter dem Druck Hitlers eingesetzten Innenministers Seyß-Inquart abzuarbeiten. Damit wurde eine Hetzjagd nicht nur auf die jüdischen Bürger, sondern vor allem auch auf die politischen Gegner des Hitler-Regimes begonnen. Am 1. April wurde aus der Masse der Verhafteten der erste Transport von Häftlingen nach Dachau zusammengestellt. Die beiden Verfasser der vorlie- genden Broschüre, Hon.-Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Neugebauer und Mag. Peter Schwarz, haben in dankenswerter Weise dargestellt, mit welcher Brutalität dieser Transport vonstatten ging. Die Nazis wollten mit den Terrormaßnah- men vor allem die Angst in der österreichischen Bevölkerung schüren und auch die Jubler beeindrucken. Dachau war als Konzentrationslager seit den Tagen bekannt, als Hitler nach der Machtergreifung in Deutschland im Jahre 1933 vor allem die politischen Gegner dorthin deportierte.
