Landscapes 20 January — 24 February 2018
Avigdor Arikha Landscapes 20 January — 24 February 2018 Private View: Friday 19 January, 6-9pm Blain|Southern Potsdamer Straße 77–87 Avigdor Arikha, View from Rue de la Chaise, 2005 10785 Berlin Courtesy the Estate of Avigdor Arikha and Blain|Southern Blain|Southern presents Landscapes, a selection of landscape paintings and drawings by Avigdor Arikha (1929-2010), one of the great observational artists of the late twentieth century. The gallery now represents the Estate of Avigdor Arikha and Landscapes is the first exhibition of the artist’s work. The exhibition is on view in the Long Gallery, beginning a new programme of simultaneous exhibitions at the Berlin gallery. While Avigdor Arikha is highly regarded for his interiors, still lifes and portraits, most of which he painted in his Paris studio, he also spent long periods in Israel and New York, and he never failed to take his pencil or brush along with him. Spending summers in Israel, he painted the warm walls, arid hills and desert vegetation, and during his frequent trips to New York City, the city’s rhythmic, rising grids became a new view to stimulate his eye and hand. His adopted hometown of Paris was his most frequent subject, from iconic Haussmann cityscapes, to seemingly overlooked patches of the city. Wherever he landed his eye, he found a subject, or a structure, worthy of a picture. Landscapes allows viewers to travel with the artist, and to see places and perspectives that were important throughout the artist’s life. Window frames inspired the artist wherever he travelled. In View from Rue de la Chaise (2005), the warm glow of the interior window frames are contrasted with the cool burst of green from the tree beyond. -

Neuerscheinungen zu Emanuel Ringelblum und dem Untergrundarchiv des Warschauer Gettos "Falls keiner von uns überlebt, soll wenigstens das bleiben." Das schrieb der Historiker Emanuel Ringelblum Anfang 1944, nur wenige Tage bevor die Deutschen sein Versteck in einem unterirdischen Bunker im besetzten Warschau entdeckten und ihn ermordeten, an seinen Freund Adolf Berman. [ 1 ] Gemeint waren die Quellen, die er und seine Mitstreiter im Untergrundarchiv des Warschauer Gettos gesammelt und selber verfasst hatten. Emanuel Ringelblum, der noch im engen Bunker unermüdlich schrieb, und seine Kollegen wollten Leben und Sterben der jüdischen Bevölkerung im besetzten Polen dokumentieren, sie wollten Sorge tragen, dass an sie erinnert und die Geschichtsschreibung nicht den Tätern überlassen würde. Fast niemand von ihnen hat die Shoah überlebt (von den engsten Mitarbeitern Ringelblums nur Bluma und Hersh Wasser sowie Rachel Auerbach), doch große Teile der Dokumente konnten auf abenteuerliche Weise gerettet werden. Es sind Quellen von unschätzbarem Wert, die wir dem Wirken dieser außergewöhnlichen Persönlichkeiten verdanken. Die im November 1940 in Emanuel Ringelblums Wohnung im gerade abgeriegelten Warschauer Getto gegründete Gruppe hatte es sich zum Ziel gesetzt, sämtliche Aspekte der Geschichte der polnischen Juden während des Zweiten Weltkriegs zu dokumentieren und zu erforschen. -

Sendler's List: Pleading Compromise to Save Jewish Children During The
Sendler’s List: Pleading Compromise to Save Jewish Children During the Conflict of the Holocaust Emerson Kidd-Benthall, Tara Shealy, Riley Whitecotton Junior Division Group Performance Process Paper: 500 Words Irena Sendler 1 Process Paper For our National History Day project we chose to research Irena Sendler, a Polish Catholic social worker who risked her life repeatedly to smuggle Jewish children out of the Warsaw Ghetto during World War II. Awed by her bravery, we struggled to see how her story fit the conflict and compromise theme. However, a common definition of compromise is to accept something that is unfavorable. Irena Sendler witnessed Adolf Hitler’s efforts to annihilate the Jews, and she realized there would be no traditional compromise to end this conflict. Instead, she asked Jewish families to compromise their determined commitment to family unity, separating over 600 children from their families, in an attempt to save them from certain death in Nazi concentration camps. We know that primary sources are powerful, so we started with websites and a visit to a local university library to search databases and identify literature. Our favorite resources included the Lowell Milken Center for Unsung Heroes, a center designed to connect students with little known people who have changed the world. We benefited greatly from the irenasendler.org website, which cautioned that much of the available information about Irena is inaccurate. We found primary source materials from the Jewish Historical Institute and the Ringelblum Archive. To help us sort through our collected sources, we were able to interview Megan Felt, a curator at the Milken Center who met Irena personally and reviewed many primary sources related to her work. -

The Place of Diasporic Imagery in the Canon of Israeli National Art
arts Article The National, the Diasporic, and the Canonical: The Place of Diasporic Imagery in the Canon of Israeli National Art Noa Avron Barak Department of Arts, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheba 8499000, Israel; [email protected] Received: 9 January 2020; Accepted: 15 March 2020; Published: 26 March 2020 Abstract: This article explores Jerusalem-based art practice from the 1930s to the 1960s, focusing particularly on the German immigrant artists that dominated this field in that period. I describe the distinct aesthetics of this art and explain its role in the Zionist nation-building project. Although Jerusalem’s art scene participated significantly in creating a Jewish–Israeli national identity, it has been accorded little or no place in the canon of national art. Adopting a historiographic approach, I focus on the artist Mordecai Ardon and the activities of the New Bezalel School and the Jerusalem Artists Society. Examining texts and artworks associated with these institutions through the prism of migratory aesthetics, I claim that the art made by Jerusalem’s artists was rooted in their diasporic identities as East or Central European Jews, some German-born, others having settled in Germany as children or young adults. These diasporic identities were formed through their everyday lives as members of a Jewish diaspora in a host country—whether that be the Russian Empire, Poland, or Germany. Under their arrival in Palestine, however, the diasporic Jewish identities of these immigrants (many of whom were not initially Zionists) clashed with the Zionist–Jewish identity that was hegemonic in the nascent field of Israeli art. -

It is possible to see the general concern over art's relation to its audience in terms of a crisis of metaphor; pivotal innovations during this period, especially in painting, mark a move beyond metaphor in search of alternative modes of address. These different modes can be characterized using the categories provided by rhetorical analysis, in particular the schema of the four master tropes as proposed by Kenneth Burke and Hayden White.
