SUMMARY:Exhibition: Annette Cords - Delirious Disruptions
DESCRIPTION:1014’s fall season opens with Delirious Disruptions\, a solo exhibition by Annette Cords featuring her Jacquard tapestries\, works on paper\, and digital prints. Through diverse media and approaches\, the artist explores the material culture of the city and the layered messages that coexist\, amplify\, and void each other in the built environment. Curated by Jill Conner. \nThe exhibition’s title\, Delirious Disruptions\, is inspired by Rem Koolhaas’ book Delirious New York. According to Koolhaas: “The city becomes a mosaic of episodes\, each with its own particular life span\, that contest each other through the medium of the Grid.” The ever-changing metropolis makes\, re-makes\, and erases its buildings and culture\, becoming a Rosetta Stone of architecture and human behavior. \nIn her Jacquard Tapestries\, Annette Cords uses collage\, along with the merging and layering of visual and textual information\, as a method for paying attention and discovering unexpected connections. She explores the interrelationship of varied visual-textual languages and how the intersection of multiple voices and viewpoints creates layered messages and metaphors. The tapestries begin with drawings\, photographs\, and word pairings; elements are added\, subtracted\, and combined in Photoshop and Illustrator. Cords then brings image files into digital weaving programs where each pixel becomes a stitch\, an interlacing of warp and weft. Frequently\, the artist takes one weaving file\, doubles back\, and repeats parts of it\, revealing a search for articulation and meaning.

SUMMARY:American-German Institute Application deadline September 10\, 2023: Building LGBTQ+ Communities in Germany and the United States: Past\, Present\, and Future
DESCRIPTION:AGI is now accepting applications for a new exchange project. The deadline to apply is September 10\, 2023. \nThe American-German Institute is pleased to announce a new three-year project that will explore LGBTQ+ community-building in Germany and the United States (2023-2026). The project aims to foster cross-cultural exchange with participants from diverse backgrounds by sharing personal testimonies\, successes and failures\, and best practices. AGI is recruiting LGBTQ+ participants from a variety of sectoral\, intersectional\, and generational backgrounds. There will be one cohort per year (for a total of three cohorts) comprised of 7 German and 7 U.S. nationals. Each cohort will experience one week-long program in Germany and one in the United States. A variety of deliverables will be part of the project throughout each program year\, including written policy briefs and articles to be published digitally and as hard copies\, as well as multimedia presentations in various formats. This project will reach a wide audience in both countries\, not only in the LGBTQ+ communities\, but also among other minority groups\, the general public\, as well as policy makers. \nThis program is generously funded by the Transatlantik-Programm der Bundesrepublik Deutschland aus Mitteln des European Recovery Program (ERP) des Bundesministeriums für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz (BMWK) (Transatlantic Program of the Federal Republic of Germany with Funds through the European Recovery Program (ERP) of the Federal Ministry for Economics and Climate Action (BMWK)) and the AGI Harry & Helen Gray Humanities Program.

SUMMARY:“'Händler der Geheimnisse': An Evening with Elisabeth Bronfen and Atina Grossmann”
DESCRIPTION:The Department of German at NYU and Deutsches Haus at NYU present a reading (in German) by Elisabeth Bronfen from her novel\, Händler der Geheimnisse (Limmat Verlag\, 2023); followed by a conversation (in English) – about Bronfen’s thought process and writing practice\, and how this novel fits in with her scholarly research – with Atina Grossman. \nSpy story and family drama Fifty years after the end of World War II\, Jewish-American veteran George Bromfield dies suspiciously in a New York City hospital. Could it be that his second wife hastened his death? While trying to uncover the mysterious circumstances of his death\, his daughter Eva and her brother Max dig deeper and deeper into their father’s mysterious past. The siblings go to Munich and New York to find out why their father returned to Bavaria after the end of the war and how this pertains to his friendship with a portrait painter and Nazi collaborator. Elisabeth Bronfen skillfully combines a spy story with a family drama and depicts the after-effects of a culture of secrecy that characterized the post-war period from 1945 onwards. \n“’Händler der Geheimnisse:’ An Evening with Elisabeth Bronfen and Atina Grossmann” is funded by the DAAD from funds of the German Federal Foreign Office (AA). \nDate and Time: Monday\, September 11th 2023\, 5:00 PM-6:30 PM \nLocation: Deutsches Haus at NYU\, 42 Washington Mews\, New York\, NY 10003 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:Timothy Garton Ash: 'From Post-War Europe to Post-Wall Europe - and Back
DESCRIPTION:The Center for European and Mediterranean Studies and the Deutsches Haus at NYU are pleased to announce the presentation of the book Homelands: A Personal History of Europe by the renowned British historian Timothy Garton Ash. In his new book\, Ash gives a unique account of the history of Europe since 1945\, drawing on his extensive personal notes from 50 years of events witnessed\, places visited\, and historymakers encountered (from Margaret Thatcher to Vladimir Putin) to chart the rise and then faltering of the quest for a ‘Europe whole and free’. \nIn this lecture\, Professor Garton Ash will extend the analysis in Homelands to offer an interpretation of how Europe progressed from the post-War period (famously analysed by Tony Judt) to what he calls the post-Wall period. And why it then regressed\, in a ‘downward turn’ after 2008\, culminating in Putin’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 – beginning the largest war in Europe since 1945. What did Europe get right? Where did it go wrong? Why? \n“Timothy Garton Ash: ‘From Post-War Europe to Post-Wall Europe – and Back’” is funded by the DAAD from funds of the German Federal Foreign Office (AA). \nDate and Time: Tuesday\, September 12th 2023\, 4:00 PM-5:30 PM \nLocation: Deutsches Haus at NYU\, 42 Washington Mews\, New York\, NY 10003 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:Tales of a Phoenix: The Letting Go Project
DESCRIPTION:Tales of a Phoenix: The Letting Go Project is a visual art exhibition and durational performance that harnesses the power of ritual to bring together women from across the world in a unified release of old patterns that no longer serve their personal growth. Featured by the UN and supported by the National Endowment for the Arts\, the ongoing project is now presented on Times Square. \nOver the past three years\, women have contributed pieces of fabric inscribed with what they wish to let go of. In a series of meditative performances\, Schnitzler has stitched these testimonies together into a room-filling skirt\, representing the global feminine voice. The project will culminate in a ritual dance performance in which Schnitzler wears the skirt radiating with these women’s collective energy\, then publicly destroy the skirt in a powerful symbol of release and letting go\, currently scheduled for summer 2024. \nDuring this outdoor event series\, Schnitzler will be sitting at the entrance of Anita’s Way\, a block passage on 42nd Street. Quietly stitching\, she is a poetic juxtaposition to the hustle and bustle of Times Square. Female-identifying passersby are invited participate by using a fabric piece provided on site\, which will then be added to the ever-growing skirt. \nTales of a Phoenix: The Letting Go Project is made possible\, in part\, with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts. Further support was provided by Chashama\, Williamsburg Art & Historical Center\, Grove 34\, and The Feminist Art Project. \nDate and Time: September 12th – October 13th\, 2023; Tuesdays-Fridays 2-5 PM (weather permitting) \nLocation: Anita’s Way\, 42nd Street btw.

SUMMARY:Time for a Paradigm Shift: Rethinking Alzheimer’s Disease Research
DESCRIPTION:In his latest book\, Alzheimer’s Disease Research: What Has Guided Research So Far and Why It Is High Time for a Paradigm Shift\, neuroscientist Christian Behl outlines the history of Alzheimer’s research up to the present day and criticizes that for too long research has focused on one particular hypothesis\, the so-called “amyloid-cascade-hypothesis\,” and has not adequately followed a wider range of promising research paths. From the work of the disease’s namesake Aloysius Alzheimer 100 years ago\, to the most recent drug developments and controversies of the last decades\, Behl tracks how much of the research has almost exclusively concentrated on the role of amyloid beta peptide\, a key component of plaques found in the brain of individuals with Alzheimer’s disease.\nBehl suggests that it is time to re-evaluate the “amyloid cascade hypothesis” and the actual role of amyloid beta peptide in the disease. He presents a number of alternative disease hypotheses and raises pertinent questions about Alzheimer’s disease research strategies\, the funding landscape\, and the too narrow focus on one dominating hypothesis.\n\n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Behl will introduce his book\, and then dive into a discussion with Dr. Tia Powell. The discussion will address various topics surrounding Alzheimer’s disease research including the following questions: \n\nWhy are the exact causes of Alzheimer’s disease still in the dark\, despite the immense\, global research efforts in academia as well as in the pharmaceutical industry?\nWhy has the majority of an entire research field kept focusing on a single hypothesis that establishes the deposition of the amyloid beta peptide in the brain as the key trigger of Alzheimer’s pathology\, even though this concept has still not been convincingly proven in the clinics?\nAre there other hypotheses that might explain the pathogenesis of this complex brain disease\, and if so\, why were these perspectives not adequately followed?\n\n\n\n\n\nExperts\nChristian Behl\, Professor of Pathobiochemistry\, University Medical Center of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz \nTia Powell\, Professor of Epidemiology and Psychiatry\, Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Medical Center \n\n\n\n\nGenerously Supported by:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDisclaimer\nThe views and opinions expressed by the speakers do not necessarily reflect those of the DWIH New York and its partners.

SUMMARY:DEFA Film Library 30th Anniversary Screening: “Miss Butterfly (Fräulein Schmetterling)”
DESCRIPTION:Deutsches Haus at NYU and the DEFA Film Library at UMASS Amherst present a screening and discussion of Miss Butterfly (Fräulein Schmetterling) to commemorate the 30thanniversary of the DEFA Film Library. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeutsches Haus at NYU and the DEFA Film Library at UMASS Amherst present a screening and discussion of Miss Butterfly (Fräulein Schmetterling) to commemorate the 30thanniversary of the DEFA Film Library. Opening remarks will be provided by Savannah Champion\, Social Media Assistant at the DEFA Film Library Amherst\, who will also moderate the audience Q&A following the screening of the film. This screening is a companion event to the Goethe-Institut Boston’s ‘Happy Birthday! The DEFA Film Library Turns 30’ series. \nAbout the film: When their father dies\, 17-year-old Helene Raupe and her little sister become orphans. Abandoned by their aunt\, they must face the challenges of daily life in East Berlin. Helene is only happy in her dreams\, where she can fly or be a stewardess or model. In real life\, in contrast\, she fails to meet people’s expectations and loses several jobs. \nCombining fantasy scenes and documentary elements filmed with a hidden camera on the streets\, Miss Butterfly was slated to be the first official experimental feature film made in the GDR. While still in production in 1965/1966\, however\, it was banned for its supposedly negative portrayal of everyday reality and its representation of bourgeois philosophies. In 2020\, this unique film was finally reconstructed based on the original script\, using preserved film and audio materials. The scenario was written by Christa Wolf and Gerhard Wolf. \nDEFA Film Library 30th Anniversary Screening: “Miss Butterfly (Fräulein Schmetterling)” is funded by the DAAD from funds of the German Federal Foreign Office (AA). \nDate and Time: Monday\, September 18th 2023\, 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM \nLocation: Deutsches Haus at NYU\, 42 Washington Mews\, New York\, NY 10003 \nMore information:
