Hardback. Condition: New. Reprint 2014. "Modernity" was an inescapable fact of life for the first generation to come of age in the German Empire. Even the most extreme political opponents saw the chaotic transformation of all spheres of life in the wake of industrial capitalism as the central problem facing young men and women at the fin de siècle. This fresh look at Wilhelmine perceptions of modernity challenges both the traditional emphasis on anti-modernism as a peculiarly German response that led to the rise of National Socialism, and the more recent post-Foucauldian studies on the "pathologies of modernity," which point instead to an unreflective faith in science and efficiency on the part of German progressives. Shifting the focus away from radical extremes on either side, Kevin Repp explores the more moderate agendas of hundreds of mainstream intellectuals and activists from diverse social backgrounds who sought to surmount the human costs of industrialization without relinquishing its positive potential. Repp combines detailed case studies of Adolf Damaschke, Gertrud Bäumer, and Werner Sombart with an innovative prosopography of their milieu to show how leading reformers enlisted familiar tropes of popular nationalism, eugenics, and cultural pessimism in formulating pragmatic solutions that would be at once modern and humane. Easily obscured by radical voices on right and left, this quiet search for alternatives nevertheless succeeded in building a nationwide network of educational centers, associative ties, and institutions that substantially altered the landscape of Wilhelmine political culture in the decades before the First World War.…

Brossura. Condition: nuovo. Venezia, Scala Contarini del Bovolo, 9 maggio - 15 ottobre 2017. Sin dagli esordi, tra la fine degli anni sessanta e i primi settanta, Pablo Echaurren manifesta il suo interesse per Marcel Duchamp quando esegue la serie dei cosiddetti quadratini , opere fondate sulla miniaturizzazione e la ripetizione del segno, sulla commistione tra fonti alte e basse, sull intreccio straniante tra parola e immagine. A distanza di quarant anni Echaurren torna a riflettere sull opera duchampiana, realizzando un nuovo ciclo di cinquanta collage dedicati alla Boîte verte (1934), da cui emerge una rilettura del modello più cerebrale e meditata che in passato, sintomo dell urgenza di riannodare i fili di un dialogo avviato in gioventù e mai interrotto, che oggi ha un intonazione autobiografica e il carattere di un primo bilancio retrospettivo sul proprio percorso artistico ed esistenziale. Confrontandosi oggi con l opera di Duchamp, Echaurren rilegge la sua storia personale, le passioni, le idiosincrasie e le ossessioni di una vita spesa a demistificare il culto dell arte, intesa come ambito separato dall esistenza, e i valori di unicità e genialità a essa associati. Since the beginning of his career between the end of the sixties and the early seventies, Pablo Echaurren made clear his interest in the work of Marcel Duchamp, when he produced the series of so-called quadratini or little squares , works based on a miniaturisation and repetition of the sign, on the mingling of highbrow and lowbrow sources, on the disconcerting interweaving of word and image. Today, at a distance of forty years, Echaurren has gone back to reflecting on Duchamp s work, creating a new series of fifty collages dedicated to the Boîte verte (The Green Box, 1934). What emerges from them is a more cerebral and considered reinterpretation of the model than in the past, a sign of his pressing need to pick up the threads of a dialogue commenced in his youth and never interrupted; a dialogue that today has an autobiographical tone and the character of a first retrospective stocktaking of the course of his own artistic and existential development. Taking on the work of Duchamp today, Echaurren re-examines his own, personal story, the passions, idiosyncrasies and obsessions of a life spent demystifying the cult of art, viewed as a realm separate from that of existence, and the values of uniqueness and genius associated with it.
