Easter 2002 1 Newsletter from the Section for the Arts of Eurythmy, Speech and Music Easter 2002 1 EDITORIAL Dear Readers, Since the last Newsletter, the world both around us and within us has become more demand- ing. The question about the very existence of our arts and our work is becoming more urgent. That applies here at the Goetheanum as much as in the whole world. You will have read about the changes in the Theatre Ensemble at the Goetheanum. In order that the work can get further a readiness for risk is required. Our next challenge is the project to produce Goethe’s Faust in a less extravagant style under the direction of Wilfried Hammacher. This will only be possible when we manage to engage all our friends in the world to raise the necessary finances. Then we shall be able in future to have an Ensemble at the Goetheanum. At the Christmas Conference, 2001, we experienced all four Mystery Dramas in a strong, sub- stance-filled production. With two new actors in the Ensemble it will be possible to work fur- ther and produce Rudolf Steiner’s four Mystery Dramas also for the Summer Conference. Please join in the efforts so that the work in the autumn can proceed with the production of Faust! Section work has grown enormously. In all areas acute tasks and burning questions are there to be solved. We gain Michael Kurtz as co-worker in the musical realm. His many contacts to musicians of the present day is an enormous help – the most recent biography of Sofia Gubaidulina was written by him. A meeting of cultures has been made possible in the public Musicians Conference. Agnes Behrens is co-worker in the work of artistic speech, caring for the many different working-groups and working-conferences. Both these colleagues are engaged on a 25 % basis; this year they have to find further finances elsewhere. Directly following the publication of this Newsletter, we hope to greet many eurythmists in the working-conference from 1st to 5th April, 2002, at the Goetheanum. Recently the second Eurythmy Meeting Weekend, with once again three different project-groups, has taken place with intensive, fruitful exchanges and observations. In January we put on an intensive Puppeteers Conference. Many new attempts and new realms were opened up. In the “Stage Forum” you will find topical discussions on the questions at present. With the articles we have once again had to keep a few things over or included only Part 1, so that the issue will not be so thick and expensive. Please take note of the page with the selected Section Events, so that you can plan in advance. The contributions for the Newsletter have slightly risen, but our expenses have still not been covered! From Michaelmas, 2002, we shall consequently have to suggest a subscription price; it is possible to pay something below this or above it. You will find a form enclosed. Please return an answer if you wish to receive the Newsletter in future. With all best wishes for Easter Corrections to RB 35 p. 10, col. 1, 11 lines from the bottom, for ‘it the’ read ‘in the’. p. 16, col. 1, l. 15, for ‘participate’ read ‘participant’. p. 52, 8 lines from bottom, for ‘anthesis’ read ‘antithesis’. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Stage forum No more Tone Gestures in Eurythmy?

From out of the ash destructive fires, sprouting seeds and green shoots emerge. (Korobacz 1988:1) I gaze out onto the street. It is unusually empty and quiet. Nothing is happening. Not even the dogs are barking. I am in Ubud and its Nyepi day on the Balinese religious calendar. On Nyepi the world expected to be clean and everything starts anew, with human beings demonstrating their symbolic control over themselves and the life force of the world. I had arrived on the eve of the festival unprepared. Even the automatic tellers were closed and there was nothing to eat. Fortunately food had been prepared the previous day and a simple nasi goreng (fried rice) was brought up to me for breakfast. What to do? I organise my writing table, I may as well commence work. I look out over the straw-coloured rice fields. Not a working duck in sight! A breeze ripples over the stooped and heavy-laden heads of rice. Over and against this peaceful scene I contemplate the chaos and turmoil in the Europe at the time my parents were born. Following the Armistice of November 11 1918 and the ensuing collapse of the Central Powers and with the Allied blockade still in effect, economic and social chaos ensued.

  • Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin, Architects of Anthroposophy
    Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin, Architects of Anthroposophy Dr John Paull [email protected] A century ago, on the 23rd of May 1912, the winning design of Canberra was announced. Soon after, two talented Chicago architects set sail for Australia. Their plan for Australia’s national capital, already named Canberra but at the time merely an empty paddock, had won first prize in an international competition which attracted 137 entries. The winning prize money for the design was a modest £1750 (McGregor, 2009). Walter Burley Griffin (1876-1937) and Marion Mahony (1871-1961) were married in the year preceding the win. Marion had nagged Walter to enter the competition, “What’s the use of thinking about a thing like this for ten years if when the time comes you don’t get it done in time!” She pointed out the practicalities: “Perhaps you can design a city in two days but the drawings take time and that falls on me” (Griffin, 1949, volume IV p.294). After the win was announced, Walter declared: “I have planned it not in a way that I expected any government in the world would accept. I have planned an ideal city - a city that meets my ideal of a city of the future” (New York Times, 1912). Marion chronicled events of their life together in a typewritten four- volume memoir of over 1600 pages (Griffin, 1949). Her memoir documents their life together and liberally reproduces personal correspondence between them and their associates. Her unpublished manuscript reveals the intensity with which she and Walter embraced the thoughts of Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) and anthroposophy.

  • Goetheanum, Dornach, Switzerland
    1 2 3 GOETHEANUM, DORNACH, SWITZERLAND PROJECT. The Goetheanum in Dornach near Basel in Switzerland is the international center of the anthroposophical movement. Named after Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the building houses two halls (seating 1,000 and 500, respectively), exhibition and lecture rooms, a library, a bookshop as well as administrative rooms of the Anthro- posophical Society. The Society‘s research and education facilites are located in the neighboring buildings. The first Goetheanum, designed by Rudolf Steiner between 1908 and 1925, was a timber and concrete construction which was destroyed by arson on New Year‘s Eve 1922/23. In the course of the year 1923, Steiner designed a new building en- tirely made of reinforced concrete – nowadays known as the Second Goetheanum. Construction works began in 1924; however, the buil- ding was not completed until 1928, after the architect‘s death. ACOUSTICS. In the large auditorium of the Goetheanum, perfor- 5 mances of the in-house theater and eurythmy groups as well as of visiting artists from around the world take place. During the comprehensive refurbishment, an interdisciplinary team – CLIENT consisting of sculptors, architects, acousticians and the very commit- General Anthroposophical Society Goetheanum, Dornach ted client – in a very considerate way integrated all necessary room acoustical measures into the historic structure.

  • Dearest Community, April Issue – 2020
    Dearest Community, April Issue – 2020 Yes, this is the first time I have addressed you as such! Our perspectives are indeed widening and warming - paradoxically through the limitations and deepest con- cerns set upon us! I believe many, if not all, of us feel challenged to awaken and to take action in these times we are experiencing at this moment. I know that Anthroposophy has given us tools with which to face these situations and to act. I am sure that in attempting to meet the challenges, we can take great steps in our work, both individually and together. Noticeably, I hear the call that rings out from Goethe’s tale The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily: “The Time is at Hand!”. This tale lends me guidance and I here share some of its images, hoping that, even if you do not know the tale, they may still speak to you. * An image that I have never noticed before (right at the end of the story) gives us a strong warning. When de- scribing the risen Temple and the niche where the Mixed King has now crumbled (as a fallen King of all that retards us), this niche had to be hidden behind a curtain “...which no eye can penetrate, and no hand dare draw aside. For otherwise the crowding multitude would have found no end to their gazing and admiration con- tained there, and would have even suffocated one an- other in the Temple, had not there attention been again attracted to the open space.” I hear in these words a deep warning that we need to take care of where we place our attention, not to the lure or fears of a “fallen materi- alistic realm” but rather to the new space, a risen space, an open space.

  • The First Goetheanum: a Centenary for Organic Architecture
    Journal of Fine Arts Volume 3, Issue 2, 2020, PP 1-11 ISSN 2637-5885 The First Goetheanum: A Centenary for Organic Architecture John Paull* University of Tasmania, Hobart, Australia *Corresponding Author: [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT A century has elapsed since the inauguration (on 26 September, 1920) of a remarkable piece of architecture, Rudolf Steiner‟s Goetheanum, headquarters of the Anthroposophy movement, on a verdant hilltop on the outskirts of the Swiss village of Dornach, near Basel. The Goetheanum was an all timber structure, sitting on concrete footings and roofed with Norwegian slate. The building was begun in 1913, and construction progressed through the First World War. Rudolf Steiner‟s intention was to take architecture in a new and organic direction. On New Year‟s Eve, 31 December 1922, the Goetheanum hosted a Eurythmy performance followed by a lecture by Rudolf Steiner for members of the Anthroposophy Society. In the hours that followed, despite the fire-fighting efforts of the Anthroposophists and the local fire brigades, the building burned to the ground. The popular narrative is that the fire was arson but that was never proved. A local watchmaker and anthroposophist, Jakob Ott, was the only person to perish in the fire. He was falsely accused (in death) as „the arsonist‟ but the evidence is rather that he perished in his brave efforts at saving the Goetheanum. Rudolf Steiner saw the “calamity” as an opportunity “to change the sorrowful event into a blessing”. He promptly embarked on plans for a new building, Goetheanum II.

  • Camphill and the Future
    DISABILITY STUDIES | RELIGION M C KANAN THE CAMPHILL MOVEMENT, one of the world’s largest and most enduring networks of intentional communities, deserves both recognition and study. CAMPHILL A ND Founded in Scotland at the beginning of the Second World War, Camphill communities still thrive today, encompassing thousands of people living in more CAMPHILL than one hundred twenty schools, villages, and urban neighborhoods on four continents. Camphillers of all abilities share daily work, family life, and festive THE FUTURE celebrations with one another and their neighbors. Unlike movements that reject mainstream society, Camphill expressly seeks to be “a seed of social renewal” by evolving along with society to promote the full inclusion and empowerment of persons with disabilities, who comprise nearly half of their residents. In this Spirituality and Disability in an Evolving Communal Movement multifaceted exploration of Camphill, Dan McKanan traces the complexities of AND THE the movement’s history, envisions its possible future, and invites ongoing dia- logue between the fields of disability studies and communal studies. “Dan McKanan knows Camphill better than anyone else in the academic world FUTURE and has crafted an absorbing account of the movement as it faces challenges eighty years after its founding.” TIMOTHY MILLER, author of The Encyclopedic Guide to American Inten- tional Communities “This book serves as a living, working document for the Camphill movement. Spirituality and Disability Communal Movement in an Evolving McKanan shows that disability studies and communal studies have more to offer each other than we recognize.” ELIZABETH SANDERS, Managing Director, Camphill Academy “With good research and wonderful empathy, McKanan pinpoints not only Cam- phill’s societal significance but also how this eighty-year-old movement can still bring potent remediation for the values and social norms of today’s world.” RICHARD STEEL, CEO, Karl König Institute DAN MCKANAN is the Emerson Senior Lecturer at Harvard Divinity School.
