  • 110 Years Since Mercedes' Dad Bought His First
    110Years Since Mercedes' Dad Bought His First Car In 1897, successful German-born businessman Emil Jellinek bought his first car from genius inventor Gottlieb Daimler. He became an enthusias- tic fan of the automobile, took part in the earliest motor races, and quickly became the largest distributor of Daimler cars. A few months after Herr Daimler's death in 1900, Jellinek persuaded the management of the Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft to have its chief designer, legendary and visionary engineer Wilhelm Maybach, build a fast, lightweight Emil Jellinek didn't only love Daimler cars; he also and safe car. Jellinek also made a second sugges- doted on his daughter, Mercédès. tion: the new car should bear the name of his daughter, Mercédès, who was then ten years old. And what a new car it was. More advanced than any other of the time, there's no disputing that it set the pattern for all that was to come for many decades. Essentially, it defined the car as we know it today. Of course, during the previous 15 years since Karl Benz had patented his three-wheeler, all sorts of contraptions, both European and American, had been produced that proved capable of moving under their own power, more or less, but none but the 1901 Mercedes deserved billing as "The This example of the first Mercedes was owned by U.S. World’s First Modern Automobile."

  • NUDNIK Forgetting Josef Ganz Rémy Markowitsch
    NUDNIK Forgetting Josef Ganz Rémy Markowitsch Maikäfer (From the Photo Archive of Josef Ganz, 1930-1933) Rémy Markowitsch Nudnik: Forgetting Josef Ganz Combining sculptural and multimedia works and archival ma- terials, the spatially expansive installation Nudnik: Forgetting Josef Ganz by Swiss artist Rémy Markowitsch deals with the Jewish engineer and journalist Josef Ganz. The artist presented his works in a cabinet space with two connecting corridors at the 2016 exhibition Wolfsburg Unlimited: A City as World La- boratory, the first show curated by Ralf Beil at Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg. The work consists not just of an aesthetic transfe- rence of Ganz’s photographic negatives and written documents to a presentation of large prints or as a video, but by way of the artist’s associative approach represents, as it were, the transil- lumination and “defoliation” of the history of a major figure in the automobile industry of the twentieth century, a figure ba- rely known until now. The processes of defoliation and transillumination, ex- posing hidden narratives, (material) conditions, and webs of relations, are defining aspects of Rémy Markowitsch’ s artistic approach. Driven in his work by certain stories, biographies, and literatures, since 1993 the artist has revealed the results of his research in photographic transilluminations. Just as the term from the realm of radiology describes, the relevant motif is penetrated, x-rayed, and superimposed with a different mo- tif. At the very moment when the photographic images shift from an opaque to a lucid state, they overlap one another. In Moving Forward so doing, the support material moves to the foreground, mat- rix dots become visible as grains and the representation is no longer focused on the act of illustration, but encourages simul- taneous examination.

  • Monterey Car Week 2017
    San Francisco Bay Area Section, Mercedes-Benz Club of America Connect to Website at: www.sfba.mbca.org September 2017 e-mail edition MONTEREY CAR WEEK 2017 THE CARMEL MISSION CLASSIC When Fr. Junipero Serra, recently canonized Saint Serra, founded the Carmel Mission in 1771 he could not have imagined that it would become an iconic jewel of the Monterey Peninsula. The courtyard, which in his day was home to carts pulled by donkeys bustling about, is now home to some of the nest collector cars on the Wednesday of car week in August of every year. The signature cars this year included actress Delores Del Rio's 1930 Dusenberg, proudly shown by the San Francisco Academy of Art University, and a 1937 Super Charged Cord 812 Cabriolet once owned by Al Jolson. The historic Wonder Bread race car of 1930s Indy fame was also a crowd pleaser. Providing a spectacular contrast to the above classics was the custom car phenomena "The Impostor," a 1965 Impala built on a corvette frame by Chip Foose. We were blessed to once again have Barry Maguire as guest MC and Danny Sullivan signing autographs. The Carmel Mission Classic is the only show during car week where one hundred percent of the net proceeds go to charity. The Knights of Columbus, which is the world's largest Catholic fraternal organization, of which I am a proud member, put on this blessed event. As co-chairman and founder, I am proud to have added the blessing of the cars ceremony performed by Bishop Richard Garcia of the Diocese of Monterey.

  • Administrative Offense Proceedings Against Daimler AG Fully Concluded
    Press Information September 24, 2019 Administrative offense proceedings against Daimler AG fully concluded Negligent violation of supervisory duties results in fine in the amount of EUR 870 million Daimler AG refrains from taking legal remedy Earnings forecast of Company remains unchanged Stuttgart, Germany – Today, the Stuttgart public prosecutor issued a fine notice against Daimler AG pursuant to Sections 30 para. 1, 130 para. 1 of the Administrative Offenses Act based on a negligent violation of supervisory duties in the area of vehicle certification in connection with deviations from regulatory requirements in certain Mercedes-Benz vehicles. According thereto, the negligent violation of supervisory duties occurred on the department head level. The Company has refrained from taking a legal remedy against the fine notice. The public prosecutor’s administrative offense proceeding against Daimler AG is thereby fully concluded. According to the public prosecutor’s findings, the negligent violation of supervisory duties caused at least in part that certain vehicles of Daimler AG had partly deviated from regulatory requirements since 2008. In this context, the public prosecutor essentially refers to the known recall orders by the German Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA). In order to get clarity also for the future with respect to the interpretation of relevant legal provisions in a complex technical environment, Daimler AG maintains the objections against the KBA orders. After weighing all aspects, Daimler has refrained from taking a legal remedy in the public prosecutor’s administrative offense proceeding. It is in the Company’s best interest to end the administrative offense proceeding in a timely and comprehensive manner and thereby conclude this matter.
