    Long Distance Friends Is Fundraising in the United States the Right Move? - A Five-Point Checklist By Gisela Keller Translation of a German article that appeared in Stiftung und Sponsoring in October 2006 The candles on the elegant Park Avenue dinner table cast a soft glow on the influential guests engaged in conversation as Ortrud Westheider, the Art Director of the Hamburg-based Bucerius Kunst Forum, hosts a recent “Friendraising Dinner” in New York. She seeks to raise visibility and financial support from individuals, collectors, foundations and companies for her American Art from 1800 – 1950 project. Three years ago when the Museum embarked on finding U.S. donors for their exhibition trilogy that will open in Hamburg, Vienna und Zurich starting in 2008 the term “Friendraising Dinner” was pretty novel. That’s different today. In light of diminishing state support overseas for arts, culture, science and education the strong U.S. culture of philanthropy increasingly attracts international nonprofit leaders’ attention. “When talking with German clients I notice that interest in international fundraising is rising. Yet, nonprofit management tends to be oblivious to the fact that it is relatively simple to create the technical and legal framework that will allow them to qualify for US donations - and to attain tax exemption for U.S. donations,” comments Steffen Lang, Relationship Manager at Deutsche Bank Private Wealth Management in New York. Tax exemption is a prerequisite for fundraising in the United States. International organizations have a couple of options: It can be advisable to set up a Donor-Advised Fund via an organization such as the King Baudouin Foundation United States or Charities Aid.

  • A Guide for Holders of the International Association of Art Card Prepared with Contributions from the Slovak Union of Visual Arts (Slovenská Výtvarná Únia) 2017
    A guide for holders of the International Association of Art card Prepared with contributions from the Slovak Union of Visual Arts (Slovenská výtvarná únia) 2017 The International Association of Art (IAA/AIAP) is a non-governmental organization working in official partnership with UNESCO. Its objectives are to stimulate international cooperation among visual artists of all countries, nations or peoples, to improve the socio-economic position of artists nationally and internationally, and to defend their material and moral rights. The IAA issues identity cards to professional visual artists. This card allows free or discounted admission to many galleries and museums in countries around the world. The card is a tool for the lifelong education of artists in their professional artistic research. These institutions, large or small, recognize the benefit they gain from enabling the artists, like art critics and journalists, to visit exhibitions, art events and collections of art, to carry on research, and to gain inspiration. As a member within the IAA network, CARFAC National issues IAA cards exclusively to Canadian professional artists that are members of CARFAC upon request. Only National Committees of the IAA may issue the card. Where to use the IAA card This document includes a chart detailing selected institutions that offer free or discounted admission prices, or other perks to IAA card holders while travelling abroad. This information was obtained from surveying recent users of the card and IAA National Committees worldwide, and is updated regularly – most recently in 2017 by the Slovak Union of Visual Arts (SUVA). Users will find that different areas in Europe are more receptive to the card than others.

From within the fields of theater and performance studies, “The Ambivalence of Resistance: West German Antiauthoritarian Performance after the Age of Affluence” approaches this question historically. It surveys the types of performance that decolonization and New Left movements in 1960s West Germany used to engage reconfigurations in the global labor process and the emergence of anti-imperialist struggles internationally, from documentary drama and happenings to direct action tactics like street blockades and building occupations.

  • National Gallery of Ireland Annual Report 2015
    National Gallery of Ireland Annual Report 2015 National Gallery of Ireland The National Gallery of Ireland was founded by an Act of Parliament in 1854 and opened to the public in 1864. It is home to over 16,300 works of art, complemented by the National Portrait Collection, as well as research facilities dedicated to the study of Irish art. The collection ranges in date from the fourteenth century to the present day comprising paintings, sculpture and works on paper spanning the history of Western European art, from Renaissance masters Fra Angelico and Paolo Uccello to Claude Monet and Pablo Picasso. The Gallery’s most prominent holdings relate to the Irish collection with works by Nathaniel Hone, Thomas Roberts, Daniel Maclise, Roderic O’Conor, William Orpen, John Lavery, Louis le Brocquy, among others. Particularly popular are the works of William Leech, Paul Henry and Jack B. Yeats, whose extensive archive is housed at the Gallery. More recently the Gallery has significantly enhanced its research facilities with the opening of the Sir Denis Mahon Reading Room. The permanent collection is free to the public and the Gallery welcomes large numbers of Irish and overseas visitors each year. Four wings of the Gallery, built between 1864 and 2002, accommodate a growing collection. As part of the Master Development Plan (MDP) a major refurbishment project of the Dargan and Milltown wings on Merrion Square is currently underway and scheduled to reopen with a new presentation of the collection in 2017. An additional wing to the Gallery is planned for the coming years. This final phase will conclude a decade-long process of essential improvement and modernisation of the National Gallery of Ireland for staff and visitors alike.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. I am using the terms ‘space’ and ‘place’ in Michel de Certeau’s sense, in that ‘space is a practiced place’ (Certeau 1988: 117), and where, as Lefebvre puts it, ‘(Social) space is a (social) product’ (Lefebvre 1991: 26). Evelyn O’Malley has drawn my attention to the anthropocentric dangers of this theorisation, a problematic that I have not been able to deal with fully in this volume, although in Chapters 4 and 6 I begin to suggest a collaboration between human and non- human in the making of space. 2. I am extending the use of the term ‘ extra- daily’, which is more commonly associated with its use by theatre director Eugenio Barba to describe the per- former’s bodily behaviours, which are moved ‘away from daily techniques, creating a tension, a difference in potential, through which energy passes’ and ‘which appear to be based on the reality with which everyone is familiar, but which follow a logic which is not immediately recognisable’ (Barba and Savarese 1991: 18). 3. Architectural theorist Kenneth Frampton distinguishes between the ‘sceno- graphic’, which he considers ‘essentially representational’, and the ‘architec- tonic’ as the interpretation of the constructed form, in its relationship to place, referring ‘not only to the technical means of supporting the building, but also to the mythic reality of this structural achievement’ (Frampton 2007 [1987]: 375). He argues that postmodern architecture emphasises the scenographic over the architectonic and calls for new attention to the latter. However, in contemporary theatre production, this distinction does not always reflect the work of scenographers, so might prove reductive in this context.
