Secession and the Theory & Practice of International

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 yscit5 7'0S23 Abstract Secession has been noticeably absent from International Relations theory although its role in the creation and recognition of states is clearly relevant. Traditionally, the dominant perspectives in IR have not questioned state formation and this has effectively barred secession as a topic since it cannot be thoroughly treated without looking across the inside/outside divide of state sovereignty. Secession must be placed in its historical context — as a phenomenon only possible in the modem era and only perceived as a global threat in this century. Theorists from other disciphnes who have discussed secession have rehed on a problem solving theoretical perspective which has kept them from considering secession as an outcome of problematic assumptions about identity and territory in the international system. -
Klirnt and Schiele Stephan Kleinschuster May 6, 1997 AR592
The Evolution of Expressionism In Turn-of-the-Century Vienna: Klirnt and Schiele Stephan Kleinschuster May 6, 1997 AR592 1 1 Until 1897, Classicism in Viennese high art had served as a mimetic construct of the elite society who were both art's staunchest supporters and the purveyors of moral and philosophical values that served as it's staple of judgment. In the following years, from 1898 to 1918, were revolutions of both natures, political and philosophical. The artistic transformation from the Classicism of the Habsburg Monarchy to the expressionism of the Cafe "Nihilism" could be seen most obviously in two of Vienna's foremost artists of the time, Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. This paper seeks to compare and contrast the works of these two artists who seem to crystallize the moral, social, political, and artistic upheaval of early Twentieth Century Vienna. It lS fitting that Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele died six months from one another, both of the Spanish influenza, and both in 1918. It is important to note that even though stylistic variables call for their ultimate contrast, they loved and admired one another, and they both stood for the values that defined Secessionism. Their proximity in philosophy makes it all the more profound to discover their differences. In Klimt came classical objectivity housed in a contemporary conceptual framework. In Schiele came the shift to brutal subjectivity that pushed the limits of this framework. Even though, as will be discussed, the similarity of the subject matter seems to remain a constant, the execution becomes the variable upon which the change becomes dependent. -

Gustav Klimt: Painting, Design and Modern Life in Vienna 1900
Tate Liverpool Educators’ Pack Gustav Klimt: Painting, Design and Modern Life in Vienna 1900 Gustav Klimt Fir Forest I 1901 courtesy Kunsthaus Zug, Stiftung Sammlung Kamm The Exhibition at Tate Liverpool As the first comprehensive survey of the work of this artist in the UK, this exhibition at Tate Liverpool focuses on the life and art of Gustav Klimt. The exhibition examines Klimt’s role as founder and leader of the Vienna Secession, a progressive group of artists whose work and philosophy embraced all aspects of arts and craft. It features key works from all stages of the artist’s career alongside fellow Secessionist artists such as Josef Hoffman, Carl Moll, Bruno Reiffenstein, and Koloman Moser. This pack will help educators focus on specific areas of this large-scale exhibition with suggested activities and points for discussion that can be used in the classroom and in the gallery. 1 The Vienna Secession (1897-1939) At the turn of the TTTwentiethTwentieth CenturyCentury,, the city of Vienna was one of Europe’s lleadingeading centrescentres of culture. The rising middle classes sought to free themselves from the past and explore new forms of expression in art, architecture, literature and music. The Vienna Secession was founded in 1897 by a group who had resigned from the Association of Austrian Artists, as a protest against the prevailing conservatism of the traditional Künstlerhaus . The movement represented a separation from the art of the past and the establishment of modernism in Austria. The younger generation sought to bring about a renaissance of arts and crafts, uniting architects, designers, Symbolists, Naturalists and craftsmen, from metalworkers to engravers. -
Press Kit Secession
SECESSION The Vienna Secession is an exhibition space that occupies a unique position in the history of modern art, combining a contemporary, forward-looking program with a building whose architecture is an icon of the spirit of adventure around 1900. This architecture has aged well and as a result, its functionality and aesthetic elegance continue to offer excellent conditions for today’s artistic and exhibition practice. The Secession is designed to be used in many different ways, a challenge taken up by artists who engage with both the inside and the outside of the building, producing an ongoing series of specially developed artistic ideas and concepts. Artists have often engaged with both the façade and the dome composed of 3000 gold-plated iron laurel leaves. The magnificent Hauptraum (main gallery) with its glass roof, one of the very first “white cubes,” is particularly well suited for interventions on account of its flexibility. With the Grafisches Kabinett (print room) on the upper floor and the three- room gallery in the basement, this ensures a wide range of options for exhibitions. In keeping with the motto that adorns its facade—“For every time, its art. For art, its freedom.”—the Secession hosts an international program that explores current forms of artistic expression in solo and themed exhibitions. It is a sounding board for the aesthetic and critical discourses on art, culture, and society that define our era, and for the political significance accruing to them. The Secession is an important forum for young experimental art, but its concept also includes prominent, already established positions. -
Expressionism in Germany and France: from Van Gogh to Kandinsky
^ Exhibition Didactics Expressionism in Germany and France: From Van Gogh to Kandinsky Private Collectors French avant-garde art was being avidly collected and exhibited in Germany, especially by private collectors, who did not have the same constraints that museum directors and curators faced. Karl Ernst Osthaus was one of the most passionate and important collectors and a fervent supporter of the German Expressionists. In 1902 Osthaus opened the Museum Folkwang in Hagen (today the museum is in Essen). There he exhibited his own collection, including the works of Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, Henri Matisse, and Paul Signac. His museum was frequented by admirers of avant-garde art, including many of the new generation of Expressionists, among them August Macke, Franz Marc, Emil Nolde, Max Pechstein, and Christian Rohlfs (who later moved to Hagen and had a studio at the museum). The cosmopolitan Count Harry Kessler, who grew up partly in Paris and later divided his time between France and Germany, discovered Neo-Impressionism early through the works of Signac and Théo van Rysselberghe, which he saw in Paris. He was also interested in the French artists group known as the Nabis, and acquired The Mirror in the Green Room (on view in this exhibition) by Pierre Bonnard, one of its members. Kessler also commissioned works from French painters, including Henri-Edmond Cross’s Bather , also on view in this exhibition. In 1905, when he was the director of the Grand Ducal Museum in Weimar, Kessler organized the first major Gauguin exhibition in Germany. Although it provoked a scandal— Gauguin was criticized for being too “exotic”—the exhibition presented the artist’s colorful Symbolist paintings of Brittany and Tahiti to the German art world. -
Rose in a Vase Personal Project Report
Rose in a Vase Personal Project Report School name: Student name: Supervisor name: School year: 2018/2019 Word count: 3 482 Investigating The opportunity to do the Personal Project made me allocate more time for what I enjoy doing. My Personal Project goal is to paint a single motif, a rose in a vase, in five different art styles of the 20th century. The specific art movements I am going to be inspired by are Vienna secession, cubism, abstract expressionism, pop art, and minimalism. The final product will include five A3 canvases each painted with my own interpretation and design of a rose in a vase in one of the given art styles with a short description of the art movement under each painting. I aim to achieve this goal by the final product deadline, February 8th 2019, by working consistently and effectively throughout the year. My art skills, techniques and knowledge are going to be challenged by the goal I picked because I have rarely attempted to paint without a direct template, which makes creating an art piece more difficult by not having outlines, proportions or colours to follow. In order to define my goal better and give my project a specific focus, I utilized the idea of one Global Context. Personal and Cultural Expression is the Global Context I chose to provide me with a starting point in my inquiry and later on encourage me to reflect and draw connections. While working with the specific Global Context, we want to question the nature and purpose of creative expression and explore the ways in which we discover and express ideas, feelings, nature, culture, beliefs and values; ways in which we reflect on and enjoy our creativity; our appreciation of the aesthetic (PLC). -
Gustav Mahler (1860–1911): a Tribute in Art, Music, and Film
Cover Auguste Rodin, Gustav Mahler, 1909, bronze, National Gallery of Art, Washington, Gift of Lotte Walter Lindt in memory of her father, Bruno Walter 3 ! Gustav Mahler (1860!–!1911): A Tribute in Art, Music, and Film David Gari" National Gallery of Art 4 David Gari! “We cannot see how any of his music can long survive him.” !—!Henry Krehbiel, New York Tribune, May 21, 1911 “My time will come!.!.!.!” !—!Gustav Mahler Interest in the life, times, and music of Gustav Mahler (1860!–!1911) has been a dominant and persistent theme in mod- ern cultural history at least since the decade of the 1960s. His status is due, in part, to the championing of his music by Ameri- can conductor and composer Leonard Bernstein (1918!–!1990). Last year (2010) was the 150th anniversary of Mahler’s birth; this year (2011), we commemorate the 100th anniversary of his death on May 18. The study of Mahler!—!the man and his music!—!confronts us not only with the unique qualities of his artistic vision and accomplishments but also with one of the most fertile and creative periods and places in Western cultural history: fin-de-siècle Vienna. Mahler’s life and times close the door on the nineteenth century. His death prior to the outbreak of the First World War is fitting, for his music anticipates the end of the old European order destroyed by the war and sum- mons us to a new beginning in what can best be described as a twentieth-century age of anxiety!—!an anxiety prophetically revealed in Mahler’s symphonies and songs.
