  1. Cookie and Vittorio's Wedding, by Nan Goldin (1986)

    One of my favorite photographers and one of my favorite examples of her work. I just love how happy they look. This is a simple human moment and there's a spark to it I can't fully explain.

  2. Laura Poitras – „All die Schönheit und das Blutvergießen“ (2022)

    Ein Dokumentarfilm, der einmal nicht mit einem Skandal beginnt, sondern mit Nähe. Intimität einmal nicht als Pose, sondern als Überlebensstrategie. Dass Laura Poitras daraus einen politischen Film macht, ist keine Überraschung. Eher eine Konsequenz ihres gesamten Werks. Sie untersucht Macht als etwas, das sich in Menschen einschreibt. Hier porträtiert sie Nan Goldin, deren Werk und Leben untrennbar mit Intimität, Schmerz, Widerstand und Erinnerung verbunden ist. (ARTE, Neu!)

  3. For #ParadiseLost, I spoke with five individuals who grew up in SW #Florida and were around to witness the formation of Sarasota’s hardcore #punk scene in the mid-1980s. Within these interviews is some nostalgia tempered with the harsh reality of racism, violence, dysfunctional family dynamics and so on. Memory is always incomplete, and the interviewees push up against that limitation continuously as they try to recall the events of 40 years ago. This #NanGoldin quote seemed relevant. #zines

    “A speech by the artist at an exhibition of her work was followed by protests from her supporters and an uproar in the news media.”

    “Claudia Roth, Germany’s culture minister, said in a statement that she was ‘horrified’ by Goldin’s comments and the protesters’ actions. ‘As commendable as Nan Goldin’s art is, I reject the political activist’s intolerably one-sided views on Israel,’ she said. The demonstrators had ‘come to the museum not to see art, but to shout down the director,’ she added.”

    “Others said [director] Biesenbach had only himself to blame. An essay in [crudely conservative] Die Welt newspaper calling for his resignation said that allowing Goldin a platform had brought about ‘the saddest, most undignified and shameful moment’ in the Neue Nationalgalerie’s history …”

    20 min. video from the New National Gallery Berlin, opening speech by Nan Goldin (about 13 mins.), and 'counter-statement' by the Director Klaus Biesenbach, accompanied by several chants from the audience. Biesenbach's speech* was not disturbed and the chants were moderate yet passionate.

  8. Never again is for anyone 🧵

    "Renowned Jewish American photographer Nan Goldin used the opening of her retrospective exhibition at the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin to denounce Israel’s genocide and call for global action."

    In her speech, Goldin criticized Germany for conflating anti-Zionism with antisemitism, stating that the government is using this false equivalency to suppress dissent.

    “This is not just an Israeli war. It’s also an American war.” She pointed to the billions in US military aid to Israel and corporate profits tied to the genocide.

  9. Nan Goldin Addresses War in Gaza at Berlin Exhibition Opening: ‘Are You Afraid to Hear This, Germany?’ (Art News, 2024-11-22)

    “With tension mounting surrounding her solo show at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie, Nan Goldin delivered an impassioned speech at the exhibition’s opening in which she called on Germany to take seriously those who are seeking a ceasefire in Israel’s war in Gaza.”

    “She went on to note a concurrent rise in Islamophobia that she said was being ‘ignored’ by the German state. ‘The weaponization of antisemitism is being aimed at the Palestinian community in this country and those who speak in support for them,’ she added. ‘The #ICC is talking about genocide. The #UN is talking about genocide. Even the #Pope is talking about genocide. Yet we’re not supposed to talk about this as genocide. Are you afraid to hear this, #Germany ?’”
