It has two interrelated aims: first, to facilitate interaction between theorists and practitioners with an interest in contemporary Austrian culture and second, to explore areas of overlap between various forms of cultural representation in contemporary Austrian culture. The conference will be accompanied by literary readings, an art exhibition, and a theatre performance. These 'accompanying events' will form an integral part of the conference, while also presenting aspects of Austrian culture to a wider non-academic audience. Among those who have expressed an interest in contributing are Manfred Erjautz, Veronika Dreier, Theater im Bahnhof (Graz). Utilising as a central motif a model of the cultural sphere as city, divided into distinct, but overlapping areas through which theorists and practitioners circulate, we are seeking papers which explore the nature of the 'Zwischenräume' between different forms of representation. Papers should address the connections (historical, existing, potential and missed) between various cultural spheres such as: * literature * art * architecture * music * film * theatre and cabaret In each case, we are interested in both 'high' and 'low' culture, as well as in works which subvert this distinction.

Description: The turn of the twentieth century in Germany and Austria was a highly troubled time and a highly creative one. People faced upheaval, change, confusion, and ambiguity in almost all areas of their lives – geography, politics, economics, technology, medicine, identity, and sexuality. Anti-Semitism and misogyny, for example, were simply a part of life and coexisted with Zionism and an active Women's Movement. Everyday concerns with such issues, as well as with the worker’s movement, increasing industrialization, and nationalism, are reflected in the artistic products of the time in ambivalent and complicated ways that we will describe and discuss. Art, literature, philosophy, music, architecture, and film not only reflected the thrills and trials of social, political, and cultural change but they themselves were also undergoing radical changes from within in genre and form.

By studying, discussing, interpreting, exchanging and recording ideas on essays, plays, short stories, novellas, films, poetry, paintings, and music produced in, or portraying the time period of, 1880-1920, not only from a thematic but also from an aesthetic point of view, students will gain an understanding of the German and Austrian Cultural contexts of the time and of the people who lived, worked, and died in it.

Cultural Policy in Austria Prepared by Culturelink IN THIS DOCUMENT... Introduction General Directions of Cultural Policy Administrative and Institutional Structures Public and Semi-public Bodies Facilities and Institutions Instruments of Cultural Policy Financing of Cultural Activities Legislation Sectoral Policies Cultural Heritage Performing Arts ... How This Document Was Prepared Introduction The Republic of Austria is made up of 9 (federal provinces). The total land area of 83,335 sq. km. is inhabited by 7.8 million people (1993). In 1981, 67 per cent of the population lived in towns, while the Province of Vienna was 100 per cent urbanized. Lower levels of administration include Bezirks (districts) and local communities. For more than seven centuries (1273-1918) Austria was ruled by archdukes, emperors (including an empress) and kings. The First Republic lasted from 1918 until Anschluss in 1938. The basis for the Second Republic is laid out in the federal constitution of 1920, the State Treaty of Vienna and the Constitutional Law on Permanent Neutrality. The Constitution provides for a parliamentary democracy. General Directions of Cultural Policy Austria belongs among nations whose identity is significantly determined by culture. Furthermore, it stands at the edge of a dominant economic and linguistic area, which necessarily makes its cultural policy the policy of identity and its culture the central factor in identifying positive national awareness.

54. ARTICLE The Forum’s purpose is to make the dynamics of contemporary austrian culturebetter known,” says Christoph ThunHoehenstein, the Forum’s director http://www.jsrussellwriter.com/austrianculturalforum.html

The Brooding, Needlelike Form of the Austrian Cultural Forum Has Been Heroically Conceived and Intricately Detailed by Raimund Abraham Architectural Record, August 2002 Twenty-four stories is not very high in Midtown Manhattan terms, but even the most preoccupied walker on East 52nd Street would be unlikely to miss the Austrian Cultural Forum, though it is dwarfed by far larger, bulkier neighbors. What first grabs attention is a five-story-high, sphynxlike form that juts toward the street. It projects out of suspended layers of sloping glass, which overlap each other sharp as knife edges. This needlelike tower, a mere 25 feet wide, draws the eye to its solid top, which is carved with mysterious, totemic slots. Most remarkably, the architect, Raimund Abraham, has stretched a mere 30,000 square feet over a dizzying 280-foot height. Creating usable, if small floor plates freed Abraham to deploy daylight more theatrically. A large skylight lures the visitor out of the lobby, past the stainless-steel elevator enclosure and up a short stair to a mezzanine gallery space. Throughout, double height spaces and the modeling of the south elevation throw surprising stripes of light and unexpected shadows into the building. This metaphorical armament seems to be as much about Abraham as it is about architecture or the aspirations of the Forum. Resistance is a way of life for Abraham, according to colleagues, and it spills into his architectural approach. Materiality is his chosen medium because he envisions truth being derived from the very fabric of architecture. The diagonal braces behind the glass façade take the place of conventional lateral supports, which usually lie invisible behind opaque spandrels. Here their pistonlike quality expresses resistance to a metaphorical as well as literal compression emanating from the comparatively large bulk of the buildings on either side.

Februar 2003, am Austrian Cultural Forum und Institute of Germanic Studies, London Tagungsbericht von Dr. Deborah Holmes, IFK_Junior Fellow, Wien (holmes document.write(String.fromCharCode(60 + 4)) ifk.ac.at) Einige Referate über Bachs Teilnahme am Wiener Theaterleben folgten am zweiten Symposiumstag und setzten die Diskussion um "Kunst fürs Volk" fort. Schließlich sprach Judith Beniston vom University College London über Bachs Schwierigkeiten, die Komödie als Gattung in sein Bild des "volkstümlichen" Theaters einzureihen. Sie analysierte Bachs Beiträge in der Arbeiter-Zeitung, wo er fortwährend darauf bestand, dass das Revolutionäre eines Kunstwerkes einzig und allein eine Frage der Form und nicht des Inhaltes sei. Da laut Beniston die Komödie grundsätzlich eine konservative Gattung sei, die eher zum Herzen als zum Hirn spreche und wo sich Form nur schwer vom Inhalt trennen lasse, gab sich Bach damit zufrieden, keine genauen Richtlinien oder gar ein Repertoire vorzuschlagen. In seinen Rezensionen tendierte er dazu, das Tragische an komischen Stücken hervorzuheben, so z.B. bei Shakespeares "Der Kaufmann von Venedig" oder Jonsons "Volpone".

Is Bruckner "Wagnerian"? Here are some of my observations: The "meaning" of Bruckner's music lies in the symphonic form of purely instrumental music. Bruckner's language is the magnificent and glorious sound of brass, timpani and the songs of the birds expressed so serenely and sadly by the tone of the winds. The musical note itself speaks the language of depth. However, one of the most significant "meanings" of Wagner's music is its narrative(i.e. story drama) and symbols(e.g. leitmotifs) of myth(e.g. Der Ring Des Niebelungen often called Ring). Musical leitmotifs connects the musical theme with symbolic concepts, characters and objects(e.g. love, Brunnhilde, gold).
