Henrik Gustafsson

Crime Scenery in Postwar Film and Photography

1. Imperfect Crimes.- 2.&amp;nbsp;From Dreamwork to Earthwork.- 3. Intruders in the Dust.- 4. A Murder of Crows.- 5.&amp;nbsp;Persistence of Vision.- 6.&amp;nbsp;The Testimony of Trees.

Der Beginn der russischen Aggression gegen die Ukraine 2014 und die große Invasion 2022 warfen Fragen zur Interpretation der ukrainischen Erfahrung des Zweiten Weltkriegs auf. Die von Russland in den besetzten Gebieten aufgezwungene Version basiert auf dem modifizierten stalinistischen Mythos des "Großen Vaterländischen Krieges" und erstreckt sich bis in die Gegenwart, in der die Rolle der "Nazis" ukrainischsprachigen Ukrainern oder dem Westen zugeschrieben wird. Gleichzeitig hat sich die Ukraine in einem längeren Prozess der Neubewertung des Zweiten Weltkriegs engagiert: Versuche, zeitgenössische ukrainische Verteidiger mit der sowjetischen Tradition zu verknüpfen, einen Kanon nationaler Helden zu etablieren und die europäische Erfahrung des Gedenkens am 8. Mai als Tag der Erinnerung und des Sieges über den Nationalsozialismus zu übernehmen, während der 9. Mai als Europatag betrachtet wird. Inmitten dieses Prozesses entstand Sergei Yekelchyks Buch, das sich auf die Erfahrungen gewöhnlicher Menschen und westliche Helden konzentriert und eine Perspektive auf die Vergangenheit aus der Sicht der Werte des neuen Ukraine bietet, insbesondere Demokratie und Menschenrechte.

Ukrainische Erfahrungen im Zweiten Weltkrieg

Critical Criminological Perspectives

This book considers the lessons that can be gleaned from the Occupy movement, some 14 years after its inception. The Occupy movement brought with it many things, including a renewed interest in class and class struggle. Using the work of Nicos Poulantzas as its departure point, the book considers the theoretical and conceptual parameters of class structures under the most contemporary form of capitalism: the monopoly finance capitalist stage. An examination of state responses to the Occupy movement reveals the ability of the exploiting classes to maintain and reproduce the capitalist system via an expression of political power through the state and its tendency to deploy both ideological and physical defenses against any significant attacks on capitalism. The analysis offered reveals how some degree of anti-capitalist opposition is tolerated until such time that it must be forcefully censored and stopped, coined here as ‘the authoritarian state with a democratic alter-ego’, offering a nuanced conceptualization of state power for readers to explore and apply for themselves in other contexts. For the nature of the state to change significantly, social class agents need to find ways to access greater autonomy from the shackles of its power. This book explores the ways in which attempts to take up counterhegemonic class positions are persistently thwarted by a pervasive and yet intricately configured state power, backed by profit motivated corporate interest. It also poses urgent questions about the role and nature of alliances when trying to challenge both ideological and forcefully repressive state practices under capitalism. The book considers how we ‘find each other’ again in future struggles against capitalism and the attendant harms that it produces for the whole of humanity and the planet.

Cultural Heritage Studies

What can art and artists bring to researching the origins and biographies of objects? How do they shed new light on - or even unsettle - existing approaches to such questions? Proposing the new term - artistic provenance research - the contributors to this innovative book illuminate art's capacity to expand provenance research in critical and provocative ways. Presenting in-depth examination of fascinating historical and contemporary examples, contributors to Artistic Provenance Research investigate knowledge-imagination dynamics, and questions of materiality, experimentation and speculation. They probe relationships between presences and absences, the aesthetic and the ontological, the scientific and the curatorial. The cases address a wide range of pressing issues of contemporary heritage research and practice, including those of colonialism and decolonization, ownership and art-markets, institutionalization, human remains, return and restitution. Through the exploration of selected artistic works in diverse media - including drama, performance, installation, photography and text - this book highlights the transformative potentials of artistic provenance research.

The Story of the Iconic Fashion Designer

Little Book of Gucci by Tom Ford

American painter James Howell found the subject of his art in the color gray. He explored the color's sensual variety diligently over decades. In 2022, the Josef Albers Museum in Bottrop dedicated an exhibition to Howell presenting his work in the context of Albers' paintings. This catalogue documents this remarkable artistic encounter and explores Howell's work in all its conceptual depth, transcending the seemlingly monothematic of the color gray. His paintings are meditations on the relationship between color and light, based on a refinement of painterly means that, despite their extreme reduction, allow for a paradoxical emphasis on expression.
 
 JAMES HOWELL (1935-2014) was an American artist who dedicated over five decades of his life to working with infinite gradations of gray. From 1968, he mainly created abstract paintings and exhibited them regularly on the West Coast of the United States. In 1983, he moved into a studio located on San Juan Island, WA, where he was surrounded by the continiously shifting grays in the sky, water, and light. This environment undoubtedly influenced his artistic production. In 1992, he moved to New York, where his signature style emerged in the 1990s with his 
 Series 10
 . This series explores gradations of gray, his interests in mathematics, physics, and philosophy. The artist's work transcends mere color and speaks to the interconnectedness of all things.

Zeitschrift für archäologische Aufklärung

Die&nbsp;Zeitschrift für archäologische Aufklärung&nbsp;setzt sich zum Ziel, die Aktualität antiker Artefakte zu demonstrieren. Sie präzisiert Konzepte antiker Dingwelten, ihre Mechanismen sowie Regelsysteme und sucht im Trümmerhaufen der griechisch-römischen Antike nach Lösungen für die Aporien der Gegenwart. Heft 4 widmet sich dem Begriff der Maske, der&nbsp;archäologische und ethnologische Objekte wie Theatermasken, Ahnenmasken und Maskenbilder umgreift. Dabei verweist er auf&nbsp;ein anthropologisches und technologisches Grundphänomen: jene bunte Instanz, die sich zwischen Subjekt und Objekt, zwischen Mensch und Mensch, zwischen Mensch und Maschine schiebt. Welche verschlungenen Pfade führen von den antiken und prähistorischen Masken durch das Labyrinth der westlichen und östlichen Traditionen in unsere digital maskierten Welten? Steckt hinter dem Phänomen der Maske womöglich der Hermes Trismegistos unserer technisierten, materialistischen und gegenwartsverliebten Zivilisation - der uralte, dämonische Ver- und Enthüller in seinem neuesten Kleid, der digitalen Hermeneutik?

Heft 4/2025: Maske

The Stylish Life

The Stylish Life Surfing

A glorious fusion of history and art, A Vast Horizon tells the story of Pablo Picasso and his free-spirited friends, including Lee Miller and Man Ray, in the tumultuous years around the Second World War. 'Excellent and revealing . . . at the end we feel their loss as if they had been our friends' - Antony Penrose, Lee Miller Archives 'At once intimate and expansive . . . a fascinating portrait' - Clare Mulley, author of Agent Zo Late summer 1937. Europe is inching towards war. In the South of France a group of friends picnic in a secluded clearing. The women have peeled down their dresses to their waists. A couple kiss playfully while the others look on, laughing. The moment is captured in Lee Miller's now-iconic image. Some of the friends are well known, others less so: the dancer Ady Fidelin, the poet Paul Éluard and his wife Nusch, the Surrealists Man Ray and Roland Penrose. They are spending the summer with fellow artists Dora Maar, Eileen Agar and Pablo Picasso. In A Vast Horizon biographer Anna Thomasson tells the story of their creativity, friendships and pursuit of freedom set against the tense political backdrop of the 1930s, the Second World War and its aftermath. Tracing their lives through their photographs, artworks, poems and letters, from the heady weeks of creativity, sex and collaboration of that Mediterranean summer through the tumultuous years that followed, it is the story of rebellious lives and the redemptive power of art.
