They came together to do what people do at reunions - to renew old friendships, to reminisce, to laugh, to look at old photos of them­ selves when they were younger, to sing "inside" songs, to get dressed up for a reception and to have a banquet with a speaker. In this case, the speaker was General William Westmoreland, and before the banquet, in the afternoon, the group had gone to Arlington National Cemetery to place a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. They represented 1,600 women who had served (some in the 50's, some in the 60's and some in the 70's) in an American Red Cross program which provided recreation for U.S. servicemen on duty in Europe, Korea and Vietnam. It was named Supplemental Recreational Activities Overseas (SRAO). In Europe it was known as the Red Cross center program. In Korea and Vietnam it was Red Cross clubmobile service.

  • Schloss Colditz Und Fluchtmuseum
    Recherchetext (www.leipzig.travel/recherchetexte) Colditz - Schloss Colditz und Fluchtmuseum “The Colditz Story” „Sein Herz würde ihm ein Stück tiefer sacken“ und er „müsse seine Seele Gott dem Allmächtigen anbefehlen“ – so beschreibt der britische Offizier Pat Reid in seinem Roman „The Colditz Story“ seine Ankunft auf Schloss Colditz. Im Norden Frankreichs gerät er während des Zweiten Weltkriegs in deutsche Kriegsgefangenschaft und wird am 10. November 1940, nachdem er aus seinem ersten Gefängnis im bayerischen Schloss Laufen ausgebrochen war, ins sächsische Colditz verlegt. Das malerische Schloss mit seinen weißen Giebeln diente von Herbst 1939 bis zur Befreiung 1945 unter der Bezeichnung „Oflag IV-C“ als Sonderkriegsgefangenenlager für alliierte Offiziere. Besonders aufgrund vieler spektakulärer Ausbrüche und Ausbruchsversuche erlangte das Schloss Colditz internationale Bekanntheit. Das Fluchtmuseum im Beamtenhaus macht mit einer Ausstellung die abenteuerlichen Fluchtversuche der alliierten Offiziere erlebbar. Es beherbergt Werkzeuge, Ausstattungen und vieles mehr zum Thema Flucht – ein Höhepunkt, den sich Besucher der Leipzig Region keinesfalls entgehen lassen sollten! Renaissanceschloss Colditz – Eine wechselhafte Geschichte Mit seiner fast 1000-jährigen Geschichte blickt das Schloss Colditz auf bewegte Zeiten zurück. Die erste geschichtliche Erwähnung eines „Burgwards“ in Colditz lässt sich auf das Jahr 1046 datieren. Eine interessante Tatsache: erst um 1200 entstand rund um den Markt die eigentliche Stadt Colditz. Somit thronte die Burganlage schon knapp 150 Jahre früher über dem heutigen Stadtgebiet. Seine erste Blütezeit erlebte Colditz als Jagdschloss unter dem kunstsinnigen und welterfahrenen sächsischen Kurfürsten Friedrich dem Weisen (1486–1525). Nach einem von dem Bäckergesellen Clemens Bock verursachten Brand 1504, der weite Teile der Stadt, das Rathaus, die Kirche und das Schloss verwüstete, wurde das Schloss nach 1506 und besonders um 1520 im Stil der frühen Renaissance umgebaut, umfassend erweitert und neu ausgestattet.

  • Mr Marc Newson
    Mr Marc Newson The degree of Doctor of Visual Arts (honoris causa) was conferred upon Marc Newson at the Faculty of Education and Social Work graduation ceremony held at 4.00pm on 26 March 2010. Chair of the Academic Board and Fellow of Senate, Professor Peter McCallum conferring the honorary degree upon Mr Newson, photo, copyright Memento Photography. Citation Professor McCallum, I have the honour to present Marc Newson for admission to the degree of Doctor of Visual Arts (honoris causa). Marc Newson is one of Sydney College of the Arts’ most successful graduates. He is recognised as one of the world’s most influential and accomplished designers of his time and, since graduating in the late 1980s, he has applied his vision to a broad range of products and spaces. He has been recognised internationally for his achievements and designs. He was the recipient of six Good Design Awards from the Chicago Atheneum and a major retrospective exhibition of his work was held at the Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum as early as 2001. Marc’s work is held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Design Museum, London; the Vitra Design Museum; and Musée national d’Art moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris. Marc began working on furniture design during his studies in jewellery and sculpture at Sydney College of the Arts. After graduating, he received an Australian Arts Council grant and presented the soon to be famous ‘Lockheed Lounge’ at the blue-chip Roslyn Oxley Gallery, Sydney. In 1991, Marc set up a studio in Paris and received commissions from Europe’s most prestigious manufacturers: Cappellini, Moroso, and Flos.

The following list seeks to provide a record of exhibitions from the opening of the new Powerhouse Museum venue in Ultimo in March 1988 through the 30 subsequent fruitful years. The list also documents exhibitions in associated venues including the Sydney Observatory, for some years the Hyde Park Barracks and the Mint Museum, as well as touring exhibitions. Many years of rigorous planning preceded the 1988 opening of the Powerhouse Museum, which was heralded as the most important cultural development in Sydney since the opening of the Opera House, and a major event in Australia’s bicentennial year. A museum for us all, a museum of creativity, curiosity and community, the Powerhouse Museum set out to explore the interrelationship of science, art and people in an Australian context.
