R it te n b e r g (C. 1 9 3 4 . II. 2543) dargestellt. Die Gase kommen nur mit Glas u. Quarz in Berührung u. werden vor Licht geschützt, ehe die quantitativen Absorptionsspektren mit einem Sektor­ photometer u. Quarzspektrographen aufgenommen werden (Lichtquelle: das kon­ tinuierliche Spektrum eines Unterwasserfunkens zwischen W-Elektroden). Die opt. Weglänge im Absorptionsgefäß aus Quarz beträgt 12,41 cm. Der Gasdruck wird variiert u. der molekulare Absorptionskoeff. a in bekannter Weise berechnet. Er ist im ganzen untersuchten Frequenzbereich (30 500— 36 030 cm-1 ) für H J merklich größer als für D J. Ferner erstreckt sich die Absorption des H J nach kleineren Fre­ quenzen als die von DJ. Die beiden Absorptionskurven haben an der Stelle der maxi­ malen Absorption einen Abstand von etwas über 300 cm-1 , im Einklang mit der Differenz der Nullpunktsenergien (halben Grundschwingungsquanten) der beiden Moll. 1/a co„ (HJ) — l/2 <u„ (DJ) = 1135 — 805 cm- 1 = 330 cm-1 . Nach höheren Fre­ quenzen zu erstreckt sich die Absorption beider Gase bis weit ins U V, ohne Andeutung einer Intensitätsabnahme. Im Zusammenhang mit diesen Beobachtungen werden die Ergebnisse einiger anderer Autoren diskutiert. — Ferner werden die Dampfdrücke von festen u. fl. H J u. D J mit einem Quarzspiralmanometer zwischen dem Kp. u. — 82° gemessen. Die Tripelpunkte werden mit Hilfe von Erwärmungskurven bestimmt. Die Ergebnisse der Vff. für fl. H J stimmen mit den Literaturangaben gut überein, während sich für festes H J größere Abweichungen zeigen. Mit Hilfe der calorimetr. Daten von G ia u q u e u . W ie b e (C. 1 9 2 9 . II. 145) ergeben sieh aus den Messungen der Vff. die Dampfdruckgleichungen: log p (fl- H J) = 26,119 + 0,002 293-T — 7,111-log T — 1636/21 log p (festes H J) = 10,493 — 0,003 167-T — 0,377-log T — 1406/21 Durch Vergleich der gemessenen Dampfdrücke von D J mit den hiernach für H J bei denselben Tempp. berechneten Werten ergeben sich für D J die Gleichungen: log p (fl. DJ) = 26,129 — 0,002 293-T — 7,111-log T — 1636/i' log p (festes DJ) = 10,505 — 0,003 167- i 7 — 0,377-log T — 1406/21 Der n. Kp. liegt hiernach für H J bei 237,5° absol. u. für DJ bei 237,0° absol. Somit hat D J bei gegebener Temp. einen etwas höheren Dampfdruck als H J. Dos Verhältnis der Dampfdrücke ist nach jenen Gleichungen im ganzen Bereich des festen u. fl. Zu­ standes konstant. Mithin müssen die Verdampfungs-, Schmelz- u. Sublimationswärmen von H J u. D J bei derselben Temp. nahezu ident, sein. Tatsächlich ergibt eine A b ­ schätzung der Verdampfungswärmen nach der von Hildebrand abgeänderten l'ROUTONschen Regel für DJ 4709, für H J 4724 cal/Mol bei 237,5° absol. Die Dampf- druekunterschiede für H J u. D J liegen zwar in derselben Richtung, sind aber kleiner als die von H F u. D F nach Claussen u. Hildebrand (C. 1934. II. 3710), vielleicht infolge der kleineren Polarität von D J (bedingt durch den kleineren Anharmonizitäts- faktor im Bereich der Nullpunktsenergie) gegenüber D F. (J. ehem. Physics 3. 415— 20. 1935.

Rich Associate Professor of Art History Craig Zabel Head of the Department of Art History Michael Bernhard Associate Professor of Political Science *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT From Activism to Kinetism: Modernist Spaces in Hungarian Art, 1918-1930. Budapest – Vienna – Berlin investigates modernist art created in Central Europe of that period, as it responded to the shock effects of modernity. In this endeavor it takes artists directly or indirectly associated with the MA (“Today,” 1916-1925) Hungarian artistic and literary circle and periodical as paradigmatic of this response. From the loose association of artists and literary men, connected more by their ideas than by a distinct style, I single out works by Lajos Kassák – writer, poet, artist, editor, and the main mover and guiding star of MA , – the painter Sándor Bortnyik, the polymath László Moholy- Nagy, and the designer Marcel Breuer. This exclusive selection is based on a particular agenda. First, it considers how the failure of a revolutionary reorganization of society during the Hungarian Soviet Republic (April 23 – August 1, 1919) at the end of World War I prompted the Hungarian Activists to reassess their lofty political ideals in exile and make compromises if they wanted to remain in the vanguard of modernity.

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.

Design for a portfolio. Original composition in red gouache, black ink and gold metallic paint, on textured ochre leatherette, mounted on a red buckram slipcase, with inserted red buckram chemise and inner sleeve of white Bütten paper, reinforced with loose panels of cardboard. Painted panel: 368 x 275 mm. (ca. 14 1/2 x 10 3/4 inches). Slipcase: 423 x 325 mm. (ca. 16 5/8 x 12 3/4 inches). This large and majestically impressive handmade portfolio represents a variation of Buchholz’s painted wooden relief, “Roter Kreis im Goldkreis,” of 1922, of which Ingrid Weisenmayer has commented “Der Dreiklang der Farben Schwarz, Gold und Rot steigert die Wirkung der einzelnen Farben noch zusätzlich. Es ist charakteristisch, dass Buchholz, der sich so vehement von jeglicher Kunsttradition distanzieren wollte, auf mittelalterliche Traditionen zurückgreift, und diese in einen modernen Kontext stellt” (Weisenmayer, in Gassen/Mengden). Comparison might equally be made with another painted panel of 1923, Buchholz’s “Neue Tafel Nr. 70.” These and similar motifs were reprised by the artist many times, through late in his career. Slight rippling of the panel at foot; a little light rubbing, otherwise in fine, bright condition. [Berlin, n.d.]. $4,500.00 Gassen, Richard W. & Mengden, Lida von (hrsg.): Erich Buchholz.

  • Erich Buchholz: the Inconvenient Footnote Within Art History
    Erich Buchholz: the inconvenient footnote within art history Andrew McNamara Reference: ‘Erich Buchholz: The Inconvenient Footnote within Art History,’ Art & Australia, Vol. 39, No.32, December 2001/February 2002, pp. 257-263. Who is Erich Buchholz? This might have been the question the Queensland Art Gallery sought to address with a major survey of his work, Erich Buchholz—the restless avant- gardist. (June-September, 2000) The answer would be that Buchholz was at the forefront of avant-garde art practice in the early years of the Weimar Republic. In the early Twenties, he found himself amidst a flurry of artistic crosscurrents in a volatile Berlin. As the curator, Anne Kirker, was able to show, his remarkable output was truly interdisciplinary for it encompassed painting, printmaking, sculpture, design, installation, architecture, even furniture making. Yet, “interdisciplinary” is an inadequate term because it suggests skipping from one activity to another, whereas Buchholz was intrigued by the formative capacity underlying each of these otherwise separate activities. Despite being at the centre of events, his art has enjoyed an erratic reception. In his Memoirs of a Dada Drummer, Huelsenbeck refers to Buchholz as “the German art pioneer,” but otherwise makes no reference to him. i In the late 1950s, however, Huelsenbeck wrote an entry for Buchholz in Michel Seuphor’s, A dictionary of abstract painting, in which he described his friend’s white, black, red and gold relief paintings as “twentieth century icons.”ii Furthermore, in an obituary for Buchholz after his death in 1972, Heinz Ohff stated quite categorically that: “In 1922 he remodeled his studio flat at Herkulesufer 15 into the first ‘environment,’ the first abstractly designed three- dimensional space in art history.”iii (Illustration 1) Now this is quite a claim, and it establishes Buchholz’s preeminence in a field traditionally linked to names like El Lissitzky, Kurt Schwitters and the Dutch group, de Stijl.
