  • Alice Creischer Culturgest Lisbon 2017
    KOW BRUNNENSTR 9 D–10119 BERLIN ALICE CREISCHER +49 30 311 66 770 GALLERY@KOW–BERLIN.COM CULTURGEST LISBON 2017 „It is March, 24th 2000 which is compelling to be prospective“ The work was exhibited at Culturgest in Lisbon, curated by Miguel Wandschneider, in Alice Creischer February 2017 - among other works ( His Master´s Voice, 2015, and The Greatest Hap- piness Principle Party, 2002). The issue of the work gathers personal and historical as- pects which are leading to the so called „debt crisis“ in Portugal and the „PIGS“ States. It starts with the construction of the Agenda 2010 (inaugurated at the Lisbon Council 2000) which led to the German financial hegemony and its austerity dictat 10 years later. Therefore, I would like to show the work not only in Lisbon but also in the other „PIGS“ states. This discriminating term was invented by the rating agencies for the indebted countries Portugal, Ireland, Greece, Spain in 2011. I would like to show and modify the work in the special local contexts as well as to cooperate with other artists who are working about the same issue. This issue of indebtness and debt economy might be now pushed to the news of yesterday but is dominating seriously the daily life of many people. I believe also that artistic work has certain difficulties to react imme- diatly to political actuality. It needs time to „digest“ and find its ways of reflection and clarity. The work connects personal memories and images with so called scientific facts of the „debt crisis“ and dismantles them as (what Bourdieu called in his critique to the German finance technocrat Thietmeyer) a „deliberate delirium“.

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Maria Gough Samuel Johnson “The Architecture of the Book”: El Lissitzky’s Works on Paper, 1919-1937 Abstract Although widely respected as an abstract painter, the Russian Jewish artist and architect El Lissitzky produced more works on paper than in any other medium during his twenty year career. Both a highly competent lithographer and a pioneer in the application of modernist principles to letterpress typography, Lissitzky advocated for works of art issued in “thousands of identical originals” even before the avant-garde embraced photography and film.

  • Arts and the City Abstract Booklet
    Arts and the City International Conference Budapest, 23-24 May 2019 Booklet of Abstracts artsandthecity2019.wordpress.com Keynote Speakers BERNARDINE EVARISTO, writer, London (author of Lara, Soul Tourists and Blonde Roots, among other novels) “The Many Londons of Amazing London: The Capital as Muse & City of Experimentation for this Black Woman Writer” As a writer of fiction and verse fiction, London has been a muse in most of my eight books. I am constantly finding ways to narrativize it from multiple perspectives, and through different eras and generations, as well as creating imaginary versions of the capital city in two of my books where I invented parallel universes. In my talk I will investigate how London has manifested as a guiding light for my imagination, how my writing subverts the dominant narratives about the city today and in history, and how London’s rich multiculturalism presents never-ending possibilities for creativity and storytelling. ANDREW GIBSON, Royal Holloway, University of London “The City and the Historicity of Affect in European Art Cinema 1945-80” The city, the metropolis, the megalopolis is what is increasingly given us to think and think from. Cities are where we can pursue truth and reality. What exactly does the city, or, if you like, the planetary megalopolis gives us to think? For me, above all, a historical materialism; but a historical materialism that is sui generis, of its own kind, not to be confused with other historical materialisms, a historical materialism specifically of the city. On the one hand, self- evidently, cities are always material entities, cannot be otherwise.

How this was complished is shown with three examples of careers of famous mathematicians. 1 Introduction This symposium is dedicated to the development of mathematics in the Austro- Hungarian monarchy in the time from 1850 to 1914. At the beginning of this period, in the middle of the 19th century the level of teaching and researching mathematics was very low – with a few exceptions – due to the influence of the jesuits in former centuries, and due to the reclusive period in the first half of the 19th century. But even in this time many efforts were taken to establish a higher education.

During the 1920s, Berlin flourished as centre of modern culture. Yet this flourishing did not exist exclusively amongst the intellectual elites that occupied the city centre and affluent western suburbs. It also extended into the proletarian districts to the north and east of the city. Within these areas existed a complex urban landscape that was rich with cultural tradition and artistic expression. This thesis seeks to redress the bias towards the centre of Berlin and its recognised cultural currents, by exploring the art and architecture found in the city’s working-class districts.
