Destiny Emigration an Exhibtion in Cooperation with FOTOHOF Archiv, Salzburg and Mandello, Barcelona/New York
GERTI DEUTSCH (1908-1979) JEANNE MANDELLO (1907-2001) Destiny Emigration An exhibtion in cooperation with FOTOHOF archiv, Salzburg and Mandello, Barcelona/New York Das Verborgene Museum at the European Month of Photography Berlin Destiny Emigration reconstructs the stories of two Jewish photographers, Gerti Deutsch and Jeanne Mandello. Each left her country when the Nazis took power. Gerti Deutsch Gerti Deutsch, Oskar Kokoschka, Salzburg 1958 escaped Vienna for London in 1936, two years before Austria was annexed by the Germans. Jeanne Mandello had already fled Frankfurt in 1934, heading first for Paris and then for Montevideo in Uruguay. Gerti Deutsch: Vienna 1908 – 1979 London Born in 1908 and raised in the heart of Vienna, she trained as a photographer in 1933 – 1935 at the Graphische Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt in her native town. Austrofascism had already curtailed the liberal lifestyle and its propaganda proclaimed a visual aesthetic in photography that glorified the homeland. Gerti Deutsch, on the other hand, preferred everyday motifs that were at odds with this norm, such as her high-angle shot of people waiting at a provincial railway station (1930s), and the diagonals that were a hallmark of modern photography. In 1936 she left Vienna for London, where her principal client until 1950 was the liberal, anti-fascist “Picture Post”, founded by Stefan Lorant in 1938. She produced 64 pictorial Jeanne Mandello, Arbeiter, reports on cultural topics and current affairs, including photographic series on subjects Montevideo 1945 like the Jewish refugee children brought over from Germany (1938) or Austrian POWs Duration returning home from the war (1948).

Posing, Candor, and the Realisms of Photographic Portraiture, 1839-1945
Posing, Candor, and the Realisms of Photographic Portraiture, 1839-1945 Jennifer Elizabeth Anne Rudd Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 i © 2014 Jennifer Elizabeth Anne Rudd All rights reserved ii Abstract Posing, Candor, and the Realisms of Photographic Portraiture, 1839-1945 Jennifer Elizabeth Anne Rudd This study offers a history of the concept of realism in portrait photography through the examination of a set of categories that have colored photographic practices since the origins of the medium in 1839: the posed and the candid. The first section of this study deals with the practices of posing in early photography, with chapters on the daguerreotype, the carte de visite, and the amateur snapshot photograph. Considering technological advances in conjunction with prevailing cultural mores and aesthetic practices, this section traces the changing cultural meaning of the portrait photograph, the obsolescence of the pose, and the emergence of an “unposed” aesthetic in photography. The second section of this study examines three key photographers and their strategies of photographic representation, all of which involved candid photography: it looks at Erich Salomon’s pioneering photojournalism, Humphrey Spender’s politicized sociological photography, and Walker Evans’ complex maneuvering of the documentary form. Here, the emphasis is on the ways in which the trope of the candid informed these three distinct spheres of photography in the early 20th century, and the ways in which the photographic aesthetic of candor cohered with—or contested—political and cultural developments of the interwar period in Germany, Britain, and the United States. -
Picture Stories: the Rise of the Photoessay in the Weimar Republic
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR HISTORY, CULTURE AND MODERNITY www.history-culture-modernity.org Published by: Uopen Journals Copyright: © The Author(s). Content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence eISSN: 2213-0624 Picture Stories: the Rise of the Photoessay in the Weimar Republic Anton Holzer Translated by Elisabeth Lauffer HCM 6 (1): 1–39 DOI: 10.18352/hcm.520 Abstract Between the mid-1920s and the early 1930s German photojournalism experienced a profound, far-reaching upheaval. Up until this time, the illustrated mass media had favoured the reproduction of single photos, but during this brief period the photo-essay rose to prominence. Photographs and texts were integrated into a new, complex narrative unity: photo- reportage. This article aims to reconstruct the historical conditions under which modern photo-reportage arose during the Weimar Republic. It will also revise certain accepted judgements about the history of photojournal- ism between the world wars. The development of modern photojournalism has until now been identified almost exclusively with the achievements of individual protagonists, mainly prominent photographers. Although these individuals played an important role in the production process of photo- reportage, they were rarely consulted regarding editorial questions and layout. In order to better understand the economic development of photo- reportage and its growth as a medium, it is necessary to examine the edito- rial work being done behind the scenes at the magazines and newspapers of the time. This article will therefore focus more on the development of the media and economic macrostructures at play in the emergence and growth of photo-reportage, and less on individual photographers’ contributions and photojournalistic output. -

In Search of the Ideological Origins of the Holocaust
IN SEARCH OF THE IDEOLOGICAL ORIGINS OF THE HOLOCAUST Cyprian Blamires MA (Oxon) D.Phil Maryvale Institute Lecture given at the Center of European Studies and the School of Humanities and Social Sciences Pontificia Universidad Católica Madre y Maestra 25 June 2020 Good afternoon. I would like to thank Dr. Armenteros and Dr. Bello for inviting me to speak with you today. I am very sorry that I cannot be with you in person in Santo Domingo to give this conference. I look forward to coming to visit and speak on another topic at a later date. What I am going to do today is to offer a first glance at a book which I have been working on since the publication of my World Fascism: a Historical Encyclopedia .1 The subject is incredibly important, but at the same time extremly delicate. The Holocaust: one of the most horrendous atrocities in all of modern history, which consisted in the deliberate and systematic shooting, gassing, or murder by brutal neglect of human beings, men, women, children, picked up from all over Europe and sent by train to a hideous end. This war waged by Hitler and his inner cabinet against the Jews of Europe has been the object of a vast quantity of studies. However, only a relatively small number of them has addressed the central question: Why? Why did the National Socialist leaders decide not simply to enslave or rob or exploit the Jews, but actually to remove them from the face of the earth? I am a historian of ideas. -
