SUMMARY:Public Presentation “German Refugee Rabbis in the United States After 1933”
DESCRIPTION:The research project “Trials and Transmission: Mapping the Legacy of the German Refugee Rabbinate” focuses on the creation of a digital prosopographic research portal exploring the cultural heritage and legacies of the German refugee rabbinate (over 250 refugee rabbis) in the United States. The aim is to present an analytic and communicative digital research tool including a digital edition of articles on these individuals discussing the agency this group gained in the definition of their heritage and legacy after 1945. Besides persecution\, flight\, exile\, and post-exile the database will allow to visualize this refugee group as a whole\, as individuals\, or as collective according to specific criteria\, such as region of birth\, religious affiliation\, political activity\, etc. As a research tool\, it will be able to analyze the mobility of the group\, the destruction of their intellectual centers\, and their reestablishment after emigration. The portal will provide a meta-structure to stimulate further research on this group and will find a permanent home and continuous maintenance at LMU Munich. \nThe DFG funded project German Refugee Rabbis in the United States 1933–1990 traces migration paths and careers of German rabbis who fled to the United States from Nazi Germany after 1933. It seeks to explore their impact on American Judaism\, American Jewish communities and their travels or returns to post-war Germany. It also makes available resources for further research on this group on both sides of the Atlantic. \nThe event is organized by the LMU-NYU Research Cooperation and is co-sponsored by the Leo Baeck Institute in New York\, the Wissenschaftliche Arbeitsgemeinschaft des LBI\, and the American Jewish Archives in Cincinnati. Additional support is provided by NYU’s Department of German. \nDate and Time: Tuesday\, October 10th\, 2023 from 6:00 PM-7:30 PM \nLocation: Deutsches Haus at NYU; 42 Washington Mews\, New York\, NY 10003 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:Dealing with Disinformation: How Is Disinformation Shifting Democratic Processes and International Relations?
DESCRIPTION:Join the American Council on Germany and the German Consulate General New York for the second installment of the series on “Dealing with Disinformation.” German diplomat and former journalist Ralf Beste and Melissa Fleming\, Under-Secretary-General for Global Communications at the United Nations\, will discuss the impact of disinformation on international relations during a webinar on Thursday\, October 12\, at 11:00 am ET (17:00 CET). \nDisinformation is a cause for tremendous concern to countries around the world – including democracies. Information manipulation has become more common – and far more sophisticated – in recent years. There are domestic and foreign actors who engage in disinformation campaigns to disrupt democratic processes or otherwise make money by intentionally spreading false or misleading information. How resilient are nation-states and the international order? What can be done to address disinformation at the national and multilateral levels? \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Archtober at Neue Galerie Prof. Mark Wigley (Columbia University) “The Infinite Interior of Friedl Dicker: Vienna 1898 Auschwitz 1944 New York 2023”
DESCRIPTION:“The Infinite Interior of Friedl Dicker: Vienna 1898 Auschwitz 1944 New York 2023” \nOne of the first and strongest students at the Bauhaus in 1919\, Friedl Dicker was ultimately more Bauhaus than the Bauhaus—developing a unique trans-disciplinary mode of practice that crossed architecture\, interior design\, theater sets\, fashion\, textiles\, accessories\, painting\, photo-collage\, graphic design\, typography\, toys\, and pedagogy. This lecture explores the unique sense of interior that Dicker constructed\, an architecture to both defend people from a relentlessly brutal exterior world and to free individual creativity in daily life. Dicker’s gift was an unbinding interior\, an agile but ultimately fragile space that was systematically erased along with so many of those sheltered within it. Yet the space survives in lingering archival traces that are themselves defiant witnesses—and provocations for design in multiple contexts today. \nMark Wigley is Professor of Architecture and Dean Emeritus at Columbia University. He is a historian\, theorist\, and critic who explores the intersection of architecture\, art\, philosophy\, culture\, and technology. His recent books include: Konrad Wachsmann’s Television: Post-Architectural Transmissions; Passing Through Architecture: The 10 Years of Gordon Matta-Clark; Cutting Matta-Clark: The Anarchitecture Investigation; Are We Human? Notes on an Archaeology of Design (with Beatriz Colomina); and Buckminster Fuller Inc.: Architecture in the Age of Radio. He has curated exhibitions at The Museum of Modern Art\, The Drawing Center\, Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art\, Het Nieuwe Instituut\, the Canadian Centre for Architecture\, and the Power Station of Art in Shanghai. \nDate and Time: Thursday\, October 12th\, 2023 at 6:30 PM \nLocation: Neue Galerie New York; 1048 Fifth Avenue; New York\, NY 10028 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:Viennale Erste Bank Film Award Screenings: Eve Heller
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 7:30pm at Anthology Film Archives for a 90-minute foray into some of Heller’s most exciting\, ethereal\, and thrilling works. This screening will include Heller’s latest short film\, Singing in Oblivion (2021)\, along with Creme 21 (2013)\, Self-Examination Remote Control (1981/2009)\, Ruby Skin (2005)\, Behind This Soft Eclipse (2004)\, Her Glacial Speed(2001)\, Astor Place (1997)\, and Last Lost (1996). \nEve Heller’s films have established her as one of the great contemporary practitioners of the found-footage genre. Her work exemplifies cinema’s capacity for recording traces of experience\, conveying fragments of history\, and conjuring the psychological\, visual\, and emotional textures of dreamlike states. Her moving image works—constructed from educational movies\, newsreels\, and her own cinematography—engage with personal and shared histories and exist at the crossroads of the intangible and the tactile. These films are suffused with the immediacy of lived experience—attentive to the physical reality of people\, animals\, and objects represented in the imagery—while equally sensitive to the materiality of the film medium itself\, channeling an elusive\, inscrutable domain of memories and emotional echoes. Heller fractures\, juxtaposes\, and distills her source materials such that new\, more evocative and resonant meanings and ideas emerge from the colliding fragments. \nHeller has demonstrated a continuing commitment to working with 16mm and 35mm film\, a choice that transcends a fetishistic or nostalgic attachment to the analog medium by emphasizing and making use of film’s unique ability to convey a palpable trace of the sensible world. Heller’s latest film\, Singing in Oblivion\, is emblematic of this commitment. It uses a variety of techniques—observational photography\, found imagery\, photograms\, and rich sound design—to conjure a meditation on death\, memory\, and transience. Centering on a Jewish Cemetery in the Vienna district of Währing\, which was partially destroyed by the Nazis and today exists in a state of decay\, Heller combines her own ghostly footage of the site with photograms of organic material\, as well as fragmentary imagery reprinted from glass negatives she discovered at a flea market in Vienna. Like so many of Heller’s works\, the film itself becomes a kind of photogram: a physical object on which now-vanished lives have left their imprint\, speaking equally to presence and absence. \n“The best of Heller’s films…are as mysterious and subtle as their titles\, weaving ghostly\, mainly black and white 16mm visions in which time seems suspended. At once ethereal and almost cloyingly vivid\, these oneiric works linger in the mind long after viewing.” –Maximilian Le Cain \nDate and Time: Monday\, October 16th\, 2023\, from 7:30 PM-9:30 PM \nTuesday\, October 17th\, 2023\, from 7:30 PM-9:30 PM \nLocation:  Anthology Film Archives; 32 2nd Ave\, New York\, NY 10003 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:What We Brought with Us - Panel Discussion & Exhibition on Academic Freedom and Objects of Memory
DESCRIPTION:University Alliance Ruhr and the Goethe-Institut are organizing an opening panel discussion and exhibition in New York City. “What We Brought with Us” is an exhibition developed by Academy in Exile at TU Dortmund University\, one of the three universities that comprise the University Alliance Ruhr. \nThe exhibition presents images of objects carried by some of Academy in Exile’s fellows when they fled from their countries of origin to Germany to where they were hosted by University of Duisburg-Essen\, Free University of Berlin\, Forum Transregionale Studien and Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities (KWI) Essen. \nThe opening panel of the exhibition with Prof. Dr. Vanessa Agnew\, Prof. Kate A. Bonansinga\, Prof. Dr. Kader Konuk and Prof. Dr. Ulrich Baer serves as an engaging exploration of the significance and emotional resonance carried by the objects refugees bring with them when fleeing their homelands. “What We Brought with Us” invites us to question our relationship with possessions and each other. It prompts us to reflect on what truly matters to us and what we consider most precious. Does a single object have the power to represent a lost world? What is our sense of belonging defined by? And in the act of leaving\, when we are forced to abandon everything\, what remains? Together\, we will unravel the intricate stories woven into each item\, questioning the role of material possessions in shaping our collective understanding of home\, belonging\, and the human experience. \nJoin UA Ruhr\, Academy in Exile\, and Goethe-Institute for this reflective discussion\, exhibition\, and networking evening with faculty from TU Dortmund University\, University of Cincinnati\, and New York University. \nDate and Time: Wednesday\, October 18th\, 2023\, at 6:00 PM \nLocation: Goethe-Institut New York\, 30 Irving Place\, New York\, NY 10003 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:Gender\, Desire\, Embodiment
DESCRIPTION:Over the past decade or so\, the emergence of terms like “non-binary” and expansions of the meaning of “queer sexuality\,” have indicated a kind of loosening up of social values and prohibitions around non-normative expressions of embodiment. At the same time\, however\, new legislation around the country and globally seeks to prevent young people from accessing trans affirmative care and to limit sex education. Concerns about the widespread adoption of trans and non-binary forms of embodiment has initiated a panic of sorts among some conservatives\, religious leaders and “family first” groups. \nPoet Meg Fernandes and cultural critic Jack Halberstam will discuss gender identification and sexual styles\, while sharing new ways of talking about identity\, the body\, obedience and disobedience\, community and its limits\, fiction and fantasy\, love\, life and desire with the audience. Fernandes will also read from her new book of poems\, I Do Everything I’m Told (2023). Moderated by Professor Irene Kacandes\, Dartmouth College. \nThis event is part of a series called “Humanities for Humans”\, presented in partnership with the Walter de Gruyter Foundation (Berlin). Across eight sessions — four in-person and four virtual — the series brings people together to help generate a better understanding of what the humanities are and what role they can play in today’s complex world. \nDate and Time: Wednesday\, October 18\, 2023 – 6:30-8:00 PM \nLocation: 1014 Fifth Avenue\, NY\, NY 10028 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:Robert Storr\, Professor and Dean Emeritus of the Yale School or Art “The Hell of the Birds”
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with our current exhibition “Max Beckmann – The Formative Years: 1915-1925” Neue Galerie is delighted to host Robert Storr for a special lecture on Beckmann’s often discussed ambiguity. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The Hell of the Birds” \nComing into his own in an era of trauma and dislocations – much like our present day – Max Beckmann was deeply ambivalent about the promises of “modernity\,” even as he was profoundly affected by the ruptures and conflicts of his moment and milieu. Caught between what philosopher Antonio Gramsci called “an old world that was dying and a new one that cannot be born (yet)\,” Beckmann turned away from more or less realistic representation toward claustrophobic\, heavily charged allegories of an apocalyptic present. This talk will range from his experiences in and renditions of World War I\, to his Neue Sachlichkeit depictions of Weimar Germany\, on through to his congested\, dialectical\, often multipanel portrayals of a world coming apart at the seams. \nDate and Time: Thursday\, October 26\, 2023; 6:30 PM \nLocation: Neue Galerie New York; 1048 Fifth Avenue; New York\, NY 10028 \nMore information:

SUMMARY:Hubert Sauper’s “Epicentro” Screening and Conversation
DESCRIPTION:NYU’s Department of German and Deutsches Haus at NYU present a screening of Hubert Sauper’s Epicentro (Little Magnet Films\, 2020) and a conversation with the filmmaker. This event is co-presented with the Yale Film and Media Studies Program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Epicentro: \nEpicentro.\nDirected by Hubert Sauper. Produced by Groupe Deux\, KGP Films\, Little Magnet Films.\nA/F 2020\, 108 minutes\, in Spanish and English with English subtitles. \nFrom world-renowned documentarian Hubert Super—director of Sundance winner We Come as Friends and the Oscar-nominated Darwin’s Nightmare—comes Epicentro\, an immersive and metaphorical portrait of post-colonial\, “utopian” Cuba in the aftermath of the 1898 explosion of the USS Maine. This Big Bang ended Spanish colonial dominance in the Americas and ushered in the era of the American Empire and neo-colonialism. Simultaneously\, a powerful tool of conquest was born: cinema as propaganda.\nIn Epicentro\, Sauper explores a century of interventionism\, cycles of myth-making\, and the extraordinary people of Havana—particularly its children\, whom he calls “young prophets”—to interrogate time\, imperialism\, and cinema itself. \nAbout the participants: \nHubert Sauper was born in Kitzbühel\, Tyrolian Alps. After spending his childhood in Austria\, he lived in Great Britain\, the USA\, Tanzania\, Congo\, and South Sudan. His “home base” since the mid ’90s has been France\, and he has studied directing in Vienna and Paris (at the University of Performing Arts and the Univ. de Paris VIII).\nSauper’s sociopolitical and poetic films have won over 50 major international prizes\, among them awards at the Venice Film Festival\, Berlinale\, and Sundance Film Festival. He has also been honored by the César Awards\, the Austrian Academy Awards\, and the European Academy Awards. His documentary Darwin’s Nightmare (2004) was nominated for Best Documentary at the Oscars in 2006. \n“Hubert Sauper’s Epicentro Screening and Conversation” is funded by the DAAD from funds of the German Federal Foreign Office (AA). Additional support was provided by the Yale Film and Media Studies Program and the program’s Chair\, Fatima Naqvi. \nDate and Time: Thursday\, October 26th\, 2023\, from 5:30 PM-8:00 PM \nLocation: Deutsches Haus at NYU\, 42 Washington Mews\, New York\, New York 10003 \nMore information:
