She sat in Miep Gies living room in Amsterdam – the woman who hid Anne Frank and rescued her diary a long time ago. She stood in the laboratory of the German Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. She accompanied Franka Potente to her ballet school in Berlin-Kreuzberg, visited Marion Dönhoff in Hamburg-Blankenese shortly before her death and went to the fiercely fought over olive fields in Calabria with Baroness Cordopatri, who is threatened by the Mafia. She created 48 portraits of great European women from the worlds of culture, economy, politics and society. The culture report Progress Europe introduces 12 of these personalities. The Portraits: 8/9 Marion Gräfin Dönhoff, journalist • 28/29 Franziska Becker, cartoonist • 48/49 Christa de Carouge, fashion designer • 58/59 Maria Lassnig, painter • 82/83 Irene Khan, director amnesty internatio- nal • 114/115 Kati Outinen, actress • 148/149 Inge Feltrinelli, publisher • 176/178 Lea Linster, cook • 192/193 Judit Polgar, chess player • 222/223 Pina Bausch, choreographer • 236/237 Magdalena Abakanowicz, artist • 254/255 Dörte Gatermann, architect Europe – Continent without Contours? 7 8 9 InvIsIble PublIc? For the author, there is no doubt about the existence of a european public sphere. he however identifies a gap between public sphere and institutional practice. Debates mostly mirror controversial issues nationally and are not addressed at european institutions.

In every branch of contemporary art, our rich Polish folklore becomes a source of inspiration for artists. nown for being very musical, Poles love dance and music. Folk melodies Kcan be heard in Chopin’s works, while Krzysztof Penderecki and Witold Lutosławski set new standards in the world of avant-garde music. Poland attracts a lot of attention, thanks to its talented jazz musicians and young artists excelling in the domain of alternative music. The poetry of Wisława Szymborska, recognised with a Nobel Prize, is appreciated in many corners of the world. Like Szymborska’s poems, many others’ works have been translated into foreign languages: the literary reportages of Ryszard Kapuściński, the futuristic prose of Stanisław Lem or the dramas of Sławomir Mrożek. Igor Mitoraj and Magdalena Abakanowicz are consid- ered ambassadors of Polish sculpture, with their monumental works arousing worldwide admi- ration. Roman Opałka’s and Wilhelm Sasnal’s paintings are highly sought after by art collec- tors. ▶ ▶ Poland has been home to many illustrious personalities, whose work changed the face of the world. Some were scientists, like Nicolaus Coperni- cus or Marie Skłodowska-Curie. Others shaped our reality in different ways, for example, the founders of Hollywood, Samuel Goldwyn and the Warner brothers.

In the hands of Polish sculptor, Magdalena Abakanowicz, sisal, burlap, bronze, and wood are transformed into metaphors simultaneously expressing the fragility and strength of humans and the natural world. Deeply personal, drawing upon her experience of the destruction of Poland during World War II, Abakanowicz's work reaches cross-cultural audiences through her ability to turn personal insight into universal expression. The artist accomplishes this difficult task using a visual language of metaphor. Through metaphor, Abakanowicz discusses aspects of humanity that are less tangible by equating them to something more concrete. Careful use of materials allows the metaphors to resonate, even with people who did not experience devastating effects of World War II. In comparing unlike things, such as sheets of steel to wings or eggs to rocks, Abakanowicz lends 1 Figure 3: Abakanowicz, (1960). Rose Magdalena, p.191. insight into complexit being human.

It’s no wonder given that the media often refers to Auschwitz as a “Polish concentration camp,” which is a rewrite of history. That is why I posted a petition on The Kosciuszko Foundation website asking newspapers to change their style guides to avoid using this historically erroneous phrase. It confuses undereducated readers, leading them to believe that the Holocaust was executed by Poland, rather than Nazi Germany. My sincerest thanks to all of you who signed the petition.
