    HERMIT international art symposium GROWTHRINGS time-place-rhythm-light-matter-energy from baroque till present LETOKRUHY cas-misto-rytmus-zvuk-svetlo-hmota-energie v promenach casu od baroka k dnesku under auspicies of Czech Ministery of Culture poradano s podporou Ministerstva Kultury Ceske Republiky PLASY 1th JUNE - 30th 1993 Bohe is The Monastery in Plasy The theme of the second international symposium-meeting-exposition and work- shop in the ancient cistercian monastery in Plasy (West Bohemia) will be the stintu- iation of interrelations between the seeing and heating, between the past and the present, between cctttrunt and province, high and low, matter and energy, relation between people and their cultural and natural environtent. 44 artists, musicians and intermedia artists from Czecho-Slowakia, Netherland, Belgium, USA, Australia, Germany and Great Britain took part in the first symposium HERMIT 92. The installations, sound sculptures, performances were mostly realised directly in the complex of this former monastery founded in 114?. Especially ill the huge building of the baroque convent rebuilt by the famous architect Jail Blazcj Santini-Aichl in the 18th century. The second location was the space of the early baroque granary. The building of the convent contains many different spaces - from dark my- sterious subleractian cellars with underground watcrsystcttts to light chapels and huge corridors . The ideal sonic conditions of the interiors were used for many sound insta llatious and music performances. The interiors of the granary with it's early gothic King's chapel are considered by artists as outstanding exhibition space for con- temporary art. In the four floors of this unique monumental building with old tower- clock are four big cellars and four large rooms with original wooden construction from 17th century.

  • The Swedish Film and Post-War American Films 1938
    THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART 14 WEST 49TH STREET, NEW YORK TEUEPHONE: CIRCLE 7-7470 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Legends to the contrary notwithstanding, the negative of Erich von Stroheim's much-discussed film, Greed, has been preserved in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's vaults and it has therefore been possible to include this celebrated "masterpiece of realism" in the Museum of Modern Art Film Libraryfs current Series IV, The Swedish Film and Post-War American Films, Greed will be shown to Museum members on Wednesday, February 23rd, at 8:45 P.M. in the auditorium of the American Museum of Natural History, 77th Street and Central Park West. Thereafter it will be available to students of the film in i colleges and museums throughout the country. Greed, a faithful transcription into pictorial terms of Frank Norris1 novel, "McTeague," was created under unusual circumstances and met with a curious fate. It was not made in a studio, but on location in San Francisco. Whole blocks and houses were purchased as settings , walls knocked out to make the photography of real in­ teriors practicable. Every detail of the novel was reproduced at considerable expense of time and money, with a passionate and un­ compromising care for veracity. Eventually von Stroheim offered his producers his finished work, a final cut print twenty reels long which he proposed they should issue in two parts, and which bore no perceptible trace of those elements usually reckoned as "box office. The film was taken from him, cut down to the present ten reel ver­ sion and so released.

His silhouette and his name are enough to evoke an emblematic figure that is at once Teutonic, aristocratic and military. No one has forgotten his timeless characters—among others, Max von Mayerling in Sunset Boulevard, a talented film director who has become the devoted servant of the almost-forgotten silent film star whose movies he used to make, or von Rauffenstein, the prisoner of war camp commandant of La Grande Illusion with his neck stiff in a brace, perfectly symbolizing at once a world that is gradually passing away and a world that is being born.
