Urbanities, Vol. 3 · No 2 · November 2013 © 2013 Urbanities The Exhibition of Communist Objects and Symbols in Berlin’s Urban Landscape as Alternative Narratives of the Communist Past Marie Hocquet (Centre Max Weber, Université Jean Monnet - Saint-Étienne) [email protected] The objective of this article is to investigate the different approaches at play in the material and symbolic production of the urban space through the study of the transformations of the East-Berlin urban landscape since the German reunification. I will show how the official accounts of the ex-GDR have crystallised in the Berlin urban space through the construction of a negative heritage. I will then focus on how the increase in historic tourism in the capital has contributed to the emergence of legible micro-accounts related to the local communist past in the urban space that compete with the official interpretations of this past. Key words: Berlin, symbolism, communism, heritage Introduction Urban space can be considered as a privileged place where one can observe the work of self- definition undertaken by societies. This is because human beings take their place in a physical environment by materialising their being-in-the-world. The urban landscape is defined by Mariusz Czepczyński as a ‘visible and communicative media through which thoughts, ideas and feelings, as well as powers and social constructions are represented in a space’ (Czepczyński 2010: 67). In the process outlined above, the narrativisation of the past and its inscription in the urban space is a phenomenon of primary importance. Our cities’ landscapes are linked to memory in a dynamic process which constantly urges societies to visualise themselves, to imagine the future and to represent themselves in it. -

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, Wenn ich das Programm der Alten Oper betrachte, entdecke ich liebe Besucher*innen der Alten Oper, neue Perspektiven in mehrfacher Hinsicht: Es sind einerseits Aus- sichten auf die Rückkehr zur Normalität im Kulturbetrieb. Aber Die Alte Oper ohne Publikum? Das war für uns unvorstellbar, und zugleich zeigen sich andere Blickwinkel.

PRESS RELEASE for Immediate Release
PRESS RELEASE For immediate release MAAZEL: MAHLER CYCLE 2011 London’s only complete Mahler symphony cycle led by a single conductor 2011 is a year of major worldwide Mahler celebrations and the Philharmonia Orchestra is marking this event by bringing Lorin Maazel, one of the world’s finest Mahlerians, to London to perform a heroic one-man journey through all ten Mahler symphonies and four major orchestral song cycles over ten concerts from April-October 2011. Maazel and the Philharmonia presented the first complete Mahler symphony cycle in London 33 years ago, in 1978-9. This series also includes concerts in Basingstoke, Bristol, Gateshead, Hull, Manchester and Warwick, a 13-concert tour to France, Germany, Italy and Luxembourg and a tour of the Far East in spring 2012. As the only full symphony cycle in London taking place with a single conductor, this promises to be a very special exploration of the work of the great composer. Soloists include Michelle DeYoung, Simon Keenlyside, Sarah Fox, Matthias Goerne, Stefan Vinke and Sarah Connolly. The series also includes the Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen, Rückert- Lieder, Des Knaben Wunderhorn and Das Lied von der Erde. Lorin Maazel said of Mahler, and of his own relationship with Mahler’s music: “He was a complete human being who had this genius for spanning the complete gamut of human emotions in sound. It’s the human quality, the person behind the notes as well as the music behind the notes that fascinates me. I really feel as if I’ve come to know Gustav Mahler, the person, intimately -
West Side Story
To Our Readers ow can something be as fresh, as bril Hliant, as explosively urgent as "West Side Story," and be 50 years old? How can this brand new idea for the American theatre have been around for half a century? Leonard Bernstein used to say that he wished he could write the Great American Opera. He was still designing such a project shortly before his death. But in retrospect, we can say that he fulfilled his wish. "West Side Story" is performed to enthusiastic audiences in opera houses around the world - recently in La Scala and, before this year is out, at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris. Is there a Broadway revival in the works? The signs are highly auspicious. In this issue, we celebrate "West Side Story": its authors, its original performers, and its continuing vital presence in the world. Chita Rivera regrets that, due to scheduling conflicts, she was unable to contribute to this issue by print time. [ wEst SIDE ·sronv L "West Side Story" continues to break ground to this very day. Earlier this year, the show was performed by inmates at Sing Sing. A few months later, it was presented as part of a conflict resolution initiative for warring street gangs in Seattle. And if there's a heaven, Leonard Bernstein was up there dancing for joy last summer while Gustavo Dudamel led his sensational 200-piece Simon Bolfvar Youth Orchestra in the "Mambo" at the Proms in London. The audience went bonkers. Check it out: http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/ 6pXLfR60dUfQNjMYZ There are few theatrical experiences as reliably thrilling as a student production of "West Side Story". -

Virtual Germans
Berlin Program for Advanced German & European Studies Berlin Program Summer Workshop Virtual Germans June 19-20, 2014 Freie Universität Berlin Preliminary Program In her travels through Eastern Europe in the 1990s, the writer Ruth Ellen Gruber noted that non-Jews were embracing, creating, and marketing an idea of Jewishness that had little to do with the Jews who had lived in the region before the Holocaust. Through practices and cultural products, these “virtual Jews” had come in dialog with “their own visions of Jews and Jewish matters, and themselves.” In recent years, the historian Winson Chu has adapted this concept to show the enactment of a “virtually German” culture that serves commercial interests, European reconciliation, and cosmopolitan credentials in Poland today. In 2014, the Berlin Program summer workshop will invite papers that expand upon the idea of “virtual Germans” in a variety of constellations, including Germans and German-speakers who have fashioned new identities for themselves abroad, people living in Germany of diverse backgrounds whose German belonging is contested, as well as constructions of Germanness in the virtual realm of cyberspace and in the classroom. This workshop will pay special attention to the global flow of “Germanness” as well as to its local constructions. By exploring such representations and contestations, we can see how new definitions of Germanness arise and how new inclusions and exclusions are made.

Exploring the Altes Museum the Altes Museum Or Old Museum Was
1 Sara Marcus 12-11-18 From Royalty to Bourgeoisie: Exploring the Altes Museum The Altes Museum or Old Museum was constructed in Berlin between 1824-30 by Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781-1841). Originally known as the “Königliches Museum,” it was commissioned by King Friedrich Wilhelm III of Prussia for the purpose of being the first public art museum in Prussia as well as the first royal museum. As the relationship in the 19th century changed between art, the observer, and who should be a part of that experience, the Altes Museum was erected to embody the idea of Berlin as a center of learning and culture, and to elevate its citizens in the presence of art. The Berlin Museum emerged from a small group of the ruling class and it was first officially demanded and proclaimed by the Art Academy under Friedrich Wilhelm II. (Das Berliner Museum entsteht aus einer kleinen Gruppe der herrschenden Schicht. Öffntlich wurde es zuerst gefordrt und verkundet… in der Kunstakademie unter Friedrich Wilhelm II.)1 After the Wars of Liberation, his son, King Friedrich Wilhelm III, continued to advocate for the foundation of a public art museum to display the collection of artifacts that Prussia had amassed over the years. During the reign of Napoleon, Prussian art was forcefully taken to be displayed in Paris, which alerted the Prussian people that a permanent home to show off their national heritage was necessary.2 While ideas for a museum were already in the air, it is safe to say that the main reason why construction started when it did was in response to Napoleon’s looting.
