  • Erich Mercker and “Technical Subjects”: Industrial Painting in the Eras of Weimar and Nazi Germany
    H-Labor-Arts Erich Mercker and “Technical Subjects”: Industrial Painting in the Eras of Weimar and Nazi Germany Discussion published by Patrick Jung on Saturday, October 7, 2017 (Copyright 2008, Society of Industrial Archeology and reprinted with permission) From the author: This article was published earlier in Industrial Archaeology: The Journal of the Society for Industrial Archeology, vol. 34, nos. 1 & 2. It is reproduced here on H-Labor Arts to make it available to a wider audience. I wrote this article while I was in the midst of finishing a book-length manuscript on Erich Mercker, who was, undoubtedly, one of the top industrial artists in Germany from 1919 to 1945. He and his contemporaries (e.g., Fritz Gärtner, Franz Gerwin, Ria Picco-Rückert, Leonhard Sandrock, and Richard Gessner) constituted a school of artists who I have provisionally labeled the “Heroic School” of German industrial art from 1919 to 1945. The Grohmann Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin has paintings produced by virtually all of these artists. It also has more than 90 paintings by Erich Mercker, more than any other art museum in the world. Thus, it is fitting this article should appear on the H-Labor Arts site titled “From the Grohmann….” I also hope this essay will spur more research into Mercker and his “Heroic School” contemporaries, all of whom produced some of the most stunning examples of industrial art during the course of the early twentieth century. Those interested in reading the full-length biography on Erich Mercker (for which this article paved the way) should contact the Grohmann Museum at [email protected].

  • How the Bush Family Made Its Fortune from the Nazis.Pdf
    How the Bush family made its fortune from the Nazis: The Dutch Connection by John Loftus 27 September/ septembre 2000. Centre for Research on Globalisation (CRG), Centre de recherche sur la mondialisation (CRM), globalresearch.ca , 25 September/ septembre 2002 How a famous American family made its fortune from the Nazis For the Bush family, it is a lingering nightmare. For their Nazi clients, the Dutch connection was the mother of all money laundering schemes. From 1945 until 1949, one of the lengthiest and, it now appears, most futile interrogations of a Nazi war crimes suspect began in the American Zone of Occupied Germany. Multibillionaire steel magnate Fritz Thyssen-the man whose steel combine was the cold heart of the Nazi war machine-talked and talked and talked to a joint US- UK interrogation team. For four long years, successive teams of inquisitors tried to break Thyssen's simple claim to possess neither foreign bank accounts nor interests in foreign corporations, no assets that might lead to the missing billions in assets of the Third Reich. The inquisitors failed utterly. Why? Because what the wily Thyssen deposed was, in a sense, true. What the Allied investigators never understood was that they were not asking Thyssen the right question. Thyssen did not need any foreign bank accounts because his family secretly owned an entire chain of banks. He did not have to transfer his Nazi assets at the end of World War II, all he had to do was transfer the ownership documents - stocks, bonds, deeds and trusts--from his bank in Berlin through his bank in Holland to his American friends in New York City: Prescott Bush and Herbert Walker.

  • Thyssenkrupp Assume Our Responsibility – for Our Products, for Our Employees, for the Capital of Our Stockholders, for Our Environment and for Our Social Communities
    magazineTK Responsibility onfines of traditional thinking ty in the process – this, too, s pany focuses.« »Overcoming the confines of traditional thinking and actions and assuming social responsibility in the process – this, too, shapes the strategic sustainability on which our company focuses.« »One of the most difficult and painful realizations about life is that you cannot be everywhere and help everyone.« »Anyone who wants to identify and use the future’s potential has to be prepared to assume responsibility in areas that extend beyond his or her own immediate concerns.« »Responsibility is the gravitational force whose pull gives us a feel for reality and the consequences of our actions.« editorial 9 he etymology of the German word “responsibility” runs all the way back to the 15th century. But you would have searched in vain for the word in a German encyclopedia that was published in 1968. It was not until T1981 that the dictionary devoted a half page to the concept. From where we stand today, that is hard to believe – after all, “responsibility” has long been recognized as one of the most important fundamental values binding our society together. Responsibility is the gravitational force whose pull gives us a feel for reality and the consequences of our actions. Taking responsibility seriously means that we consider the broadest possible repercussions of our own behavior on other people, our environment and the future of our planet. Every day, we at ThyssenKrupp assume our responsibility – for our products, for our employees, for the capital of our stockholders, for our environment and for our social communities.
