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)

SUMMARY:300 Years of Herrnhut
DESCRIPTION:This exibition commemorates the founding of Herrnhut as a unique religious community and global network. Open until July 31st in the German House. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout 300 years ago\, on June 17th in 1722\, Herrnhut was founded as a refuge for Protestant exiles from Moravia (in the Eastern part of today’s Czech Republic). Under the leadership of carpenter Christian David (1692-1751)\, German-speaking descendants of the Church of the Bohemian Brethren settled on the Berthelsdorf estate of Count Nikolaus Ludwig von Zizendorf (1700-1760) in Upper Lusatia\, Saxony. Life in the newly founded village was shaped by the ideal of forming a community of believers in Christ according to the example of the church in the New Testament. \nHerrnhut soon became a center of attraction for like-minded religious seekers from other parts of Germany and beyond. The village dveloped quickly and eventually became a model for the stablishment of other congregations in Europe and throughout the world. It forms the birth place of the modern Moravian Church\, which today numbers more than 1 million members in about 30 countries. \nThis exibition commemorates the founding of Herrnhut as a unique religious community and global network. \nOpen daily from 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM until July 31st in the German House\, 871 United Nations Plaza\, New York\, NY 10017

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.

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:
