  1. Europas große Filmpaläste – „Lichtburg, Essen“ (2025)

    Die Lichtburg ist kein Kino. Sie ist eine Behauptung. Eine architektonische, historische, fast trotzig aufrechterhaltene Behauptung, dass Kino mehr sein kann als Konsumarchitektur mit Popcorngeruch und algorithmisch kuratierten Spielplänen. Wer durch diese Türen geht, betritt kein „Kino“, sondern ein Versprechen – und zugleich eine offene Wunde. Und mein Leben. (ARTE, Neu!)

  6. Im Wuppertaler Skulpturenpark Waldfrieden ist bis zum 13. August noch die Rebecca Horn-Retrospektive zu sehen.
    Große Empfehlung!

    Am besten zusammen mit dem "Maschinenmaler" Carl Grossberg im Von-der-Heyd-Museum.

  7. George Grosz -- Pillars Of Society -- Oil on canvas -- 1926 -- Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, Nationalgalerie

    I'm probably in the company of many here in being familiar with this pictorial indictment of the capitalist Germany of the mid twenties.

    I can't make up my mind whether the unforgettable imagery is or was politically effective as a powerful agent and sustainer of radicalization, or whether, on the other hand, it is or was so overwhelmingly and indiscriminately polemical as to leave viewers in a state of general disgust about their society and ultimately in a state of demobilising despair about the possibility of change for the better.

  12. CW: Female nudity -- sexual activity

    Christian Schad -- Two Girls -- 1928 -- Oil on Canvas -- Private Collection

    Another picture from the 2006 exhibition catalogue "Glitter and Doom: German Portraits from the 1920s" that struck me was Christian Schad's 1928 "Two Girls".

    The catalogue entry claims that the picture would "descend into gross pornography" were the figure in the foreground to be shown looking at the viewer.

    Rather than enter into a moralistic and unproductive discussion of this claim, I would rather consider whether the picture shows a couple's intimacy or the self- absorption of two isolated individuals.

  17. The Jeweller Karl Krall -- Otto Dix -- 1923 -- Oil on canvas -- Kunst und Museumsverien im Von der Heydt-Museum, Wuppertal.

    According to the 2006 exhibition catalogue "Glitter and Doom: German Portraits from the 1920s", Krall was not only, as a chamber music amateur, musical, but was also "musical", to use the term used in 1920s British English to describe gay men.

    The catalogue entry suggests that beneath Krall's jacket, "there must be a corset that is much too tight. Severe discomfort makes the blood rush to Krall's face, turning it purple-red with bluish accents. Veins on his forehead seem ready to pop."

    As with so many of the other portraits, I find myself fascinated by this picture. Is Dix's depiction of the hour glass figured jeweller a frank depiction of Krall's style in foundation garments, or does it function as the painter's possibly contemptuous verdict on male homosexuality?

  23. Kann Nüchternheit empathisch sein? Im Haus Opherdicke beweist die Ausstellung, dass der präzise Blick der Neuen Sachlichkeit nichts mit Kälte zu tun hat. Fotografie, Druck und Zeichnung aus den 1920er Jahren dialogisieren mit Gegenwart.

    a) im Bildnis von Otto Dix (1926),
    b) als Journalistin im WDR (!) (1931) und
    c) eine Wiederbegegnung von Modell und Bild 1961 in Paris.
