SUMMARY:“Passage:” A Performance and Sound Installation at Deutsches Haus at NY
DESCRIPTION:Deutsches Haus at NYU presents “Passage” a performance and sound installation with members of the New York Choral Society in the building and courtyard of Deutsches Haus at NYU. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeutsches Haus at NYU presents “Passage”\, a performance and sound installation with members of the New York Choral Society in the building and courtyard of Deutsches Haus at NYU. This performance negotiates the cultural and linguistic polyphony of New York and its immigration history. It is a collaboration between artist Anna Schimkat and artist Felix Kindermann. Both artists are currently Artists in Residence at ISCP International Studio and Curatorial Project. \nFelix Kindermann’s work addresses the relationship between humans and their environment\, inter-human communication\, and the relationship between individuality and collectivity through sculpture\, sound art\, performance\, photography\, video\, and printmaking. By (de)constructing and (re)assembling objects\, architectures and languages\, Kindermann examines reciprocity. The artist is interested by the physical\, mental\, and social dimensions of the human body\, which he reflects by assembling self-reflexive entities from fragmented parts. Felix Kindermann has exhibited work at Museum Ludwig and Simultanhalle\, Cologne; KANAL- Centre Pompidou\, Brussels; and Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst\, Ghent\, among others. \nAnna Schimkat is a visual artist who has expanded her work into sound art through installations and performances.

SUMMARY:Anne Weber and Tess Lewis in conversation\, moderated by Susie Nicklin
DESCRIPTION:Join author Anne Weber and translator Tess Lewis for a conversation about the novel Epic Annette: A Heroine’s Tale. Susie Nicklin\, publisher of Indigo Press\, will moderate. \nREGISTER\nWhat does it mean to be a hero in the 20th century? Anne Weber’s novel\, winner of the 2020 German Book Prize\, recounts the extraordinary true story of Annette Beaumanoir\, whose involvement with the French Resistance and the Algerian FLN cemented her name in history. \nBeaumanoir’s gripping story\, including her exile from France and separation from her children\, embodies the tragic conflict between political activism and familial obligation. This novel about courage\, resilience\, and the struggle for freedom is also a bold and nuanced look at the ethics of heroism. \nGuided by a passion for justice and a fervent belief in self-determination\, Beaumanoir joined the French Resistance while studying medicine in Rennes\, and then moved to Paris at the age of nineteen. After the war\, she supported the Algerian FLN in France\, resulting in her imprisonment in 1959 while pregnant with a third child. After making a dramatic escape\, she then served in the Ministry of Health under Algeria’s first president Ben Bella until his overthrow in 1965. Exiled from her homeland\, having been found guilty in absentia and sentenced to ten years in prison\, she moved to Switzerland and worked in a clinic there until an amnesty allowed her to return to France. \nThese are the bones of Annette’s story. Anne Weber sings them to life\, showing us the drama behind the facts in lyrical free verse beautifully translated into English by Tess Lewis. She also explores the ethical and philosophical aspects of Annette’s life choices\, as well as the emotional pain and grief trailed in their wake. Annette resembles the great heroes Odysseus and Aeneas; her character is her destiny\, peripatetic\, always exploring\, ultimately not tragic but not without costly personal sacrifice. \nAnne Weber is a German-French author\, translator into both French and German and self-translator. She studied in Paris and has worked for several publishers. Anne started writing and publishing in French\, but immediately translated her first book Ida invente la poudre into German as Ida erfindet das Schießpulver. Since then\, she has written each of her books in French and German. In 2005 she received the 3Sat award at the Festival of German Language Literature. For her translation of Pierre Michon’s work she received the Europäischer Übersetzerpreis Offenburg. She was awarded the 2020 German Book Prize for Annette\, ein Heldinnenepos\, which has sold more than 200\,000 copies. \nTess Lewis is a writer and translator from French and German. Her translations include works by Peter Handke\, Walter Benjamin\, Lutz Seiler\, Jonas Lüscher and Philippe Jaccottet. Her awards include the 2017 PEN Translation Award for her translation of Maja Haderlap’s novel Angel of Oblivion and a Guggenheim Fellowship. Her essays and reviews have appeared in a number of publications including Granta\, Bookforum\, and The Los Angeles Review of Books. She is an Advisory Editor for The Hudson Review and co-curator of the Festival Neue Literature. She is a Guggenheim and Berlin Prize Fellow. \nSusie Nicklin began her career at The Bodley Head publishers and co-founded foreign rights specialist The Marsh Agency in 1993. She was Director of English PEN from 2002 – 2005\, and inaugurated its translation program (now PEN Translates). She was Director of Literature at the British Council from 2005 – 2013\, creating international literary partnerships and events. She founded The Indigo Press in 2018. \nThis event is co-presented by Deutsches Haus at NYU\, Villa Albertine\, and The Indigo Press.

SUMMARY:Humanities for Humans: Repair\, Reparation\, Refusal
DESCRIPTION:The uneven distribution of the devastating losses of the last years due to the Covid-19 pandemic starkly revealed the legacies of structural racism\, inequality\, war\, poverty\, and climate change. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCultural studies experts Hortense Spillers and Marianne Hirsch discuss the connections between these traumatic histories and the responses of affected communities on both sides of the Atlantic.  They ask whether and how art\, literature\, architecture and public action can inspire struggles for repair and reparation\, raising also the implications of the politics of refusal and abolition that some have recently adopted as a more appropriate reaction to continued dispossession and neglect.  Moderated by Professor Irene Kacandes\, German Studies and Comparative Literature\, Dartmouth College. \nDate and Time: Wednesday\, May 10\, 2023 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM EST \nLocation: 1014 5th Avenue\, New York\, NY\, 10028\, United States \nInformation

SUMMARY:Fassbinder Thousands of Mirrors: A Conversation Between Ian Penman and Gary Indiana
DESCRIPTION:Deutsches Haus at NYU\, Light Industry\, and the New York Institute for the Humanities present a conversation between authors Ian Penman and Gary Indiana about Penman’s new book\, Fassbinder Thousands of Mirrors (Semiotext(e)\, May 2023)\, a kaleidoscopic study of acclaimed filmmaker\, writer\, and actor Rainer Werner Fassbinder. \nPlease note: Light Industry will present a reading by Ian Penman from Fassbinder Thousands of Mirrors\, punctuated by the screening of a variety of film clips on May 9. \nAbout Fassbinder Thousands of Mirrors:\nMelodrama\, biography\, cold war thriller\, drug memoir\, essay in fragments\, and mystery\, Fassbinder Thousands of Mirrors is cult critic Ian Penman’s long-awaited first full-length book: a kaleidoscopic study of Rainer Werner Fassbinder. Written over a short period “in the spirit” of RWF\, who would often get films made in a matter of weeks or months\, Fassbinder Thousands of Mirrors presents the filmmaker as Penman’s equivalent of what Baudelaire was to Benjamin: an urban poet in the turbulent\, seeds-sown\, messy era just before everything changed. Beautifully written and extraordinarily compelling\, echoing the fragmentary works of Roland Barthes and Emil Cioran\, Eduardo Galeano and Alexander Kluge\, this story has everything: sex\, drugs\, art\, the city\, cinema\, and revolution. \nAbout the speakers:\nIan Penman is a British writer\, music journalist\, and critic. He began his career at the NME in 1977\, later contributing to various publications including The Face\, Arena\, Tatler\, Uncut\, Sight & Sound\, The Wire\, The Guardian\, the London Review of Books\, and City Journal. He is the author of Vital Signs: Music\, Movies\, and Other Manias and It Gets Me Home\, This Curving Track. \nGary Indiana is a novelist and critic who has chronicled the despair and hysteria of America in the late twentieth century and on. From Horse Crazy (1989)\, a tale of feverish love set against the backdrop of downtown New York amid the AIDS epidemic\, to Do Everything in the Dark (2003)\, “a desolate frieze of New York’s aging bohemians” (n+1)\, Indiana’s novels mix horror and bathos\, grim social commentary with passages of tenderest\, frailest desire. With 1997’s Resentment: A Comedy\, Indiana began his true crime trilogy\, following up with Three Month Fever: The Andrew Cunanan Story (1999)\, and Depraved Indifference (2002). In 2015\, Indiana published his acclaimed anti-memoir\, I Can Give You Anything But Love (Rizzoli).

SUMMARY:The Binding of Isaac: Prophecy\, Enlightenment\, Disobedience
DESCRIPTION:Did an angel prevent Abraham from killing his son? In Genesis\, 22:2 obedience to God takes precedence over morality as humanly conceived. Or is the angel a later addition to the text and Abraham actually disobeys the divine command? Philosopher Omri Boehm re-examines religious interpretations of the text and re-opens the philosophical debate between Kant and Kierkegaard\, contending that the monotheistic model of faith presented by Abraham was actually a model of disobedience.\nREGISTER\nUdi Aloni (b. 1959) is a filmmaker\, writer\, visual artist and political activist whose works focus on the interrelationships between art\, theory\, and action. His book\, What Does a Jew Want?\, published by Columbia University Press\, and his last film\, Why is we Americans (2020)\, explored the legacy of African American poet Amiri Baraka. Aloni lives in Berlin\, New York and Tel Aviv. \nOmri Boehm (b. 1979) is a philosopher and associate professor of philosophy at the New School for Social Research. He is known for his interpretation of the Binding of Isaac (Genesis 22) and his work on Spinoza and Kant. His latest book\, Radical Universalism\, was published in Germany in 2022. Boehm’s writings have appeared in the New York Times\, Washington Post\, Haaretz and Die Zeit\, among others.

SUMMARY:Lotte am Bauhaus
DESCRIPTION:Neue Galerie New York is delighted to present Filmbar\, a movie series set in a relaxed bar atmosphere reminiscent of early 20th century Vienna. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNeue Galerie New York is delighted to present Filmbar\, a movie series set in a relaxed bar atmosphere reminiscent of early 20th century Vienna. Tickets include one complimentary drink and snack\, and a movie screening. \nThe Spring 2023 Filmbar Series\, “Dancing on the Edge of a Volcano\,” features a selection of films that form a multifaceted portrait of the Weimar Republic era. This was a time characterized by stark contrasts: hectic innovation while clinging to old traditions\, suffering from the economic pressure of the Great Depression while getting lost in excess\, living the ultimate freedom while facing the increasing danger of looming totalitarianism. \n“Lotte am Bauhaus” \n“Lotte at the Bauhaus” \nDirected by Gregor Schnitzler. 2019. \nIn German; English subtitles. 105 min. \nWeimar\, Germany 1921: According to her father\, the life of 20-year-old Lotte Brendel seems to be a set affair — as a wife and mother at the side of a man who is to take over his parents’ carpentry business. However\, and against the will of her family\, the unconventional and artistically talented Lotte joins a group of young artists\, applies to the Bauhaus and is accepted. The Weimar Bauhaus under the direction of the visionary Walter Gropius aims not only to combine art and craftsmanship\, but also to accommodate the “New Man.” In Bauhäusler Paul Seligmann\, Lotte finds a supporter and her great love. She is given the opportunity to complete her studies as a woman with equal rights guided by world-famous artists such as Lyonel Feininger\, Johannes Itten\, Vasily Kandinsky\, Paul Klee\, and Oskar Schlemmer.  But the break with her family\, questions of equality and political pressure on the Bauhaus create challenges. \nDate and Time:  Friday\, May 12\, 2023 at 6:00 PM \nLocation:  \nNeue Galerie New York \n1048 Fifth Avenue \nNew York\, NY 10028 \nInformation and Tickets

SUMMARY:ECO SOLIDARITY 2023 AT WANTEDDESIGN MANHATTAN
DESCRIPTION:Designers & studios from several EU countries showcase sustainable\, future-focused solutions \nECO-Solidarity goes into the next round: Designers and studios from several European Union countries represented by EUNIC NY showcase sustainable\, future-focused solutions at ECO Solidarity 2023\, presented by WantedDesign. The exhibition will be held at the Javits Center as part of the International Contemporary Furniture Fair. \nThe German contribution to ECO Solidarity 2023 is CollColl\, a design collective\, based in Berlin and Munich. Together they work between architecture\, scenography and art\, and create prototypes and experiments between urban design\, sculpture and performance on participative construction sites. \nEmploying circular materials\, they use process- oriented\, improvisational and explorative methods to activate public space. Rather than simply designing and executing\, their projects take building as an end in itself\, as an art form\, as a performance. Through the participation of invited guests and passersby\, they open these design processes up to collaborative thinking\, feedback dynamics and contextual materials. This pointed engagement of the social aspect of design\, aims to establish co-responsibility between the project\, its site and its community.\nECO Solidarity was initiated in 2020 by the Polish Cultural Institute New York in partnership with WantedDesign and eight European Union National Institutes for Culture (EUNIC) organizations as an international\, multidisciplinary initiative and movement to address the need for human-centered design in response to global humanitarian and public health crises. \nWantedDesign is a NYC-based platform dedicated to promoting design and fostering the international creative community throughout the year. Founded in New York City in 2011 by Odile Hainaut and Claire Pijoulat\, WantedDesign has established itself as a constant and staunch supporter of U.S. and international design. wanteddesignnyc.com \nThe International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) is where designers\, retailers\, developers\, and architects converge to exchange inspiration and ignite a competitive drive for contemporary residential and commercial interiors. Exhibitors from 36 countries come to the ICFF each year to showcase the newest frontier of high-end\, contemporary interiors. Icff.com \nEuropean Union National Institutes for Culture (EUNIC) is the European network of organizations engaging in cultural relations. EUNIC advocates a prominent role of culture in international relations and is a strategic partner of the EU\, actively involved in the further definition of European cultural policy.

SUMMARY:“Legendary Sin Cities: Berlin: Metropolis of Vice”
DESCRIPTION:Neue Galerie New York is delighted to present Filmbar\, a movie series set in a relaxed bar atmosphere reminiscent of early 20th century Vienna. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNeue Galerie New York is delighted to present Filmbar\, a movie series set in a relaxed bar atmosphere reminiscent of early 20th century Vienna. Tickets include one complimentary drink and snack\, and a movie screening. \nThe Spring 2023 Filmbar Series\, “Dancing on the Edge of a Volcano\,” features a selection of films that form a multifaceted portrait of the Weimar Republic era. This was a time characterized by stark contrasts: hectic innovation while clinging to old traditions\, suffering from the economic pressure of the Great Depression while getting lost in excess\, living the ultimate freedom while facing the increasing danger of looming totalitarianism. \nLEGENDARY SIN CITIES\, BERLIN: METROPOLIS OF VICE \nDirected by Marrin Canell and Ted Remerowski. 2005. 60 min. \nDuring the Weimar Republic\, Berlin was a cauldron of hedonism; uncensored and untiring\, the city indulged in every form of sex. And just as Berlin was open-minded toward all things erotic\, it was also tolerant toward avant-garde artistic expression\, liberal political dialogue\, and wide-ranging scientific inquiry. In tracing the sociopolitical history of the era\, this program spotlights key figures of those heady times\, including key figures such as Anita Berber\, Bertolt Brecht\, Marlene Dietrich\, George Grosz\, and Christopher Isherwood. \nDate and Time: Friday\, May 26\, 2023 at 6:00 PM \nLocation:  \nNeue Galerie New York \n1048 Fifth Avenue \nNew York\, NY 10028 \nInformation and Tickets

SUMMARY:Follow in the footsteps of Hannah Arendt with a self-guided audio wal
DESCRIPTION:The Upper West Side was Hannah Arendt’s home from 1941 to 1975. This neighborhood on a hill\, home to fellow artists\, writers\, and friends\, became a haven from her endless speaking and teaching schedule\, which took her around the world. She wrote here\, entertained here\, taught here\, rested here\, and it was here where she found the four walls necessary for solitude\, friendship\, and thinking. This map traces how Hannah Arendt made a home in America\, discovering where she used to live and how she got her start as a writer. \nAUDIO GUIDE AT GESSO\n\nFollow the footsteps of Hannah Arendt with a self-guided audio walk.

SUMMARY:Mine and Yours: Forms of Distinction
DESCRIPTION:Solo exhibition by artist Felix Kindermann \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur built environment is full of structures that both constrict and facilitate movement. From the architecture of public and private buildings\, to city planning and subway systems\, to national borders and jurisdictional limits\, to the languages we speak and the ones we do not\, imagined and real boundaries define and condition how we move in the world and how we interact within it. \nIn this exhibition\, Mine and Yours: Forms of Distinction\, Felix Kindermann takes up the ubiquity of fences and their social function in New York City. Observing that many fences at residences and public spaces are too short to truly prevent a persistent visitor from crossing\, Kindermann posits the fence as a structure of sociality. At once\, they act as symbols of class and wealth\, delimit and open the space between personal and private\, and elucidates who belongs in a given space—and who does not. Fences keep out\, but also let in. \nKindermann’s practice has long centered the relationships between people in response to their environments\, with a particular focus on themes of togetherness and separation within communities. These works consider the interhuman encounter shaped by the structure of the fence and the notion of reciprocal actions. In this exhibition\, Kindermann posits new photographic and installation artworks that negotiate the complex tension between the production and possession of these social boundaries. \nOpen through July 7th \nGoethe-Institut New York (30 Irving Place\, Ground Floor)
