  • New Objectivity: Modern German Art in the Weimar Republic, 1919–1933 on View: October 4, 2015–January 18, 2016 Location: BCAM, 2Nd Floor
    Exhibition: New Objectivity: Modern German Art in the Weimar Republic, 1919–1933 On View: October 4, 2015–January 18, 2016 Location: BCAM, 2nd Floor Image captions on page 5 (Los Angeles—April 7, 2015) The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) presents New Objectivity: Modern German Art in the Weimar Republic, 1919–1933, the first comprehensive show in the United States to explore the themes that characterize the dominant artistic trends of the Weimar Republic. Organized in association with the Museo Correr in Venice, Italy, this exhibition features nearly 200 paintings, photographs, drawings, and prints by more than 50 artists, many of whom are little known in the United States. Key figures—Otto Dix, George Grosz, Christian Schad, August Sander, and Max Beckmann— whose heterogeneous careers are essential to understanding 20th century German modernism, are presented together with lesser known artists, including Herbert Ploberger, Hans Finsler, Georg Schrimpf, Heinrich Maria Davringhausen, Carl Grossberg, and Aenne Biermann, among others. Special attention is devoted to the juxtaposition of painting and photography, offering the rare opportunity to examine both the similarities and differences between the movement’s diverse media. During the 14 years of the Weimar Republic (1919–1933), artists in Germany grappled with the devastating aftermath of World War I: the social, cultural, and economic effects of rapid modernization and urbanization; staggering unemployment and despair; shifting gender identities; and developments in technology and industry. Situated between the end of World War I and the Nazi assumption of power, Germany’s first democracy thrived as a laboratory for widespread cultural achievement, witnessing the end of Expressionism, the exuberant anti- art activities of the Dadaists, the establishment of the Bauhaus design school, and the emergence of a new realism.

  • The Spatial Pattern of Gentrification in Berlin
    Julia Siemer and Keir Matthews-Hunter The spatial pattern of gentrification in Berlin The spatial pattern of gentrification in Berlin Julia Siemer Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, University of Regina Keir Matthews-Hunter Department of Geography and Planning, University of Toronto In recent years, gentrification has become central to political debates, media reports, and everyday conversations on urban de- velopment in Berlin, Germany. More or less all inner city districts fit some rubric of gentrification discussed in the international literature. However, as a result of Berlin’s unique history as a divided city, the process has developed at times and in patterns that are markedly different from other global cities. The article briefly outlines the urban agendas and renewal efforts of East and West Berlin during the years of division. It proceeds to document the political, economic, and cultural factors underlying the development of Berlin’s place and history specific development of gentrification in the reunified city since 1990. Keywords: Gentrification, spatial pattern, Berlin, Germany Introduction temporal pattern of gentrification, this article traces the spatial development of gentrification in Berlin back to the city’s place- At first sight, Berlin appears to be a showcase for the various specific history of urban planning strategies. It begins with an forms of gentrification discussed in international literature outline of the political climates and urban renewal efforts of East (Holm 2013, 186).
