  • City of Displacement: on the Unsteadiness of Berlin Sites and Sights1
    WEIMARPOLIS, Multi-disciplinary Journal of Urban Theory and Practice Vol. 1, Issue 2, pp. 53-64, ISSN 1869-1692 City of Displacement: On the unsteadiness of Berlin sites and sights1 Marc Schalenberg Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies Email: [email protected] Abstract This essay starts from the observation that the city of Berlin, throughout the 20th century, has been particularly prone to shift buildings in their entirety or in parts to other sites. These shiftings have to be seen against their specific backgrounds, such as war destruction, technological refurbishment, myth making, symbolic or memory politics by the respective political regime, resuming the “spirit” or name of a place for reasons of identification or marketing. But beyond those, the disposition to translocate can be understood as symptomatic in a city whose narratives, images and practices have been explicitly oriented towards the “new”, “unsteady” and “shiftable”. Attempts to remove material objects – not less than their meanings – are to be found in completely diverse political and cultural contexts. It seems an interesting challenge, therefore, to transcend the level of individual instances of displacements and try to test some concepts recently suggested in Urban Studies, like “habitus” or “intrinsic logic” for Berlin. Zusammenfassung Der Beitrag geht von der in Berlin vor allem im 20. Jahrhundert auffallenden Bereitschaft aus, Bauwerke oder Teile von ihnen an andere Orte der Stadt zu versetzen. Jenseits der konkreten Hintergründe (z.B. Kriegszerstörung, technische Modernisierung, „Mythenbildung“, Symbol- und Erinnerungspolitik des jeweiligen politischen Regimes, Anknüpfen an den „Geist“ eines Ortes bzw. Namens aus identifikatorischen oder kommerziellen Gründen) wird diese Disposition als symptomatisch verstanden für eine Stadt, deren Narrative, (Selbst-) Bilder und Praktiken stark am „Neuen“, „Unsteten“ und „Verrückbaren“ orientiert waren und sind.

  • Staatliche Museen Zu Berlin September 24–29, 2017 September, 2017
    Staatliche Museen zu Berlin September 24–29, 2017 September, 2017 Dear PREP Participants Welcome back to PREP and Willkommen in Berlin! It is wonderful to have you all here. We hope the coming week will be as interesting and insightful as the week we spent in New York in February. Over the coming days, we aim to introduce you to the key re- sources Berlin has to offer to researchers studying art losses in the Nazi-Era and also to other colleagues here in Berlin who are involved in provenance research in a variety of ways. We would also like to make you familiar with some of the institutions that are part of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin and give you an idea of the work they are doing with regard to provenance research. Most of all, however, we would like to provide the setting in which you can continue the conversations you began in New York and carry on building the network that is PREP. We have asked you to contribute to quite a few of the events – thank you all for your many ideas and suggestions! We have tried to build PREP around the participants and your expertise and input are crucial to the success of the program. This applies not only to the coming week, but also to the future develop- ment of the PREP-Network. There are two ways in which we hope you will contribute to the long term success of PREP. One of these is that we hope you will all keep in touch after you leave Berlin and continue supporting each other in the impor- tant work you do.

Did you know that... Culture and Events ●… Berlin is one of the few cities that has three UNESCO World Heritage sites? In addition to the famous Museum Island and the Prussian palaces and gardens, the Berlin Modernist housing estates are also among them. Furthermore, the German capital has also been bestowed the title of UNESCO City of Design and is thus included in the UNESCO Creative Cities Network. ●... Berlin is the only city in the world that has three opera houses holding performances?

Berlin also has more than 150 theatres and live show stages catering to all genres. ●... Berlin is the only European city that has more museums than rainy days? On average there are 99 rainy days a year, and there are around 175 museums. ●... the Gemäldegalerie (portrait gallery) at the Kulturforum, which opened in 1998, unites the collections of the Bode Museum (in the former East) and the Gemäldegalerie in Dahlem (in the former West) that were separated when the city was divided? ●… Berlin with its roughly 300 galleries for classical modernism and contemporary art has the largest gallery scene in Europe? ●.

  • Bode-Museum Der Kaiserliche Hofarchitekt Ernst Eberhard Von
    Bode-Museum Der kaiserliche Hofarchitekt Ernst Eberhard von Ihne plante das Museum. Zum Zeitpunkt der Eröffnung 1904 hieß das Gebäude „Kaiser-Friedrich- Museum“ und wurde 1956 in „Bode-Museum“ umbenannt. Der Gedanke ein Kunstmuseum zu bauen entstand um 1871von Kronprinzen Friedrich III., des späteren 99 Tage Kaiser. In Zusammenarbeit mit dem Kunsthistoriker Wil- helm von Bode, dem Architekt Ernst Eberhard von Ihne und dem Bauleiter Max Hasak wurde das dreieckige Gebäude am Zusammenfluss von Spree und Die Form des Gebäudes am Kupfergraben von 1897-1904 errichtet. Zuvor stand auf dem 6000 m² großem Spreeufer Grundstück von 1824 bis 1897 das Berliner Mehlhaus und eine sogenannte „Kunstbaracke“, in der Ausstellungen zeitgenössischer Berliner Künstler stattfanden. Der mit einer Kuppel überwölbte halb- runde Eingangstrakt steht zu der Monbi- joubrücke, die beiderseits mit dem Fest- land verbunden ist. Der Bau des monu- mentalen Gebäudes, das aus dem sump- figen Boden regelrecht empor zusteigen scheint, ist eine technische Meisterleis- tung der Ingenieure. Die reich gestalte- ten Fassaden sind vollständig mit Sand- stein verkleidet, die beiden Geschosse mit korinthische Halbsäulen und Pilas- ter in Monumentalordnung gegliedert. Seitenfront zum Hauptarm der Spree, rechts die Brücke mit dem Hauptein- gang des Museums Eingangshalle, auch Große Kuppelhalle genannt, mit Reiterstandbild Friedrichs III. und zwei gewundene Treppen Die Große pompöse Kuppelhalle mit den am Antritt weit ausladende Treppenaufgänge rechts und links, der runden Außenwände und das Reiterstandbild des Großen Kurfürsten Friedrich III. (König ab 1701, Friedrich I.) geben dem Objekt eine gewisse Würde. Die galvanoplastische Kopie von Andreas Schlüters Reiterstandbild wurde 1904 gefertigt. Der Raum besticht sowohl durch seine Dimensionen, als auch durch seine Prachtentfaltung mit marmornen Säulen und Pilastern, allegorischen Skulpturen und vergoldeten Portraitmedaillons.
