The yearning to be not bothered, to be passed on the street, the rehab, the food mart, the many shoppe window reflections...

Cornelius Gurlitt (1820–1901) schuf nicht nur Symphonien, Operetten, Lieder und Kammermusik, sondern verfasste auch eine Vielzahl von Klavieretüden und Anfängerstücken. Diese Werke werden bis heute im Musikunterricht verwendet und tragen dazu bei, dass sein musikalisches Erbe weiterhin lebendig bleibt. Gurlitts Beitrag erstreckt sich somit über verschiedene Genres, und seine Klavierkompositionen dienen nicht nur als künstlerische Werke, sondern auch als pädagogisches Material für angehende Musikerinnen und Musiker.

Kate Diehn-Bitt (German, 1900-1978)

An automatic translation:

"Born in Schöneberg near Berlin in 1900, Kate (originally: Käthe) Diehn-Bitt was a middle-class daughter. Her training took place exclusively in various private art schools; After early marriage and the birth of her son in 1920, she began studying at the – again – private art academy in Dresden in 1929–31, where Woldemar Winkler (1902–2004) became her teacher, who later described her as “a very clever one , very self-confident, emancipated personality”.

The Dresden art scene around Otto Dix, Otto Griebel and others must have been as impressive for Diehn-Bitt as the political atmosphere in the city. Back in Rostock, she set up her first studio in 1933; In 1935 she exhibited together with the sculptor Hertha von Guttenberg in the gallery of Wolfgang Gurlitt in Berlin - it would take until 1948 until another exhibition is dedicated to her in Schwerin.

During the Nazi era, Kate Diehn-Bitt's stepfather, Dr. Leo Glaser persecuted as a Jew; she herself and her work were deemed “foreign”. After the end of the war, Diehn-Bitt was initially involved in cultural policy in the newly founded GDR, but after being sentenced to paint “not in a forward-looking or optimistic manner”, she withdrew from all functions in the 1950s and died in Rostock in 1978. All of the political-historical upheavals of the 20th century in Germany can be seen in her biography and work."

what do you mean art became a commodity because of genocide? (genuine q)

tw for discussion of the shoah/holocaust

.

while ofc people bought and sold art, commissioned art, and there were art houses like christie's, art didn't really become an investment commodity until the 1960's, after world war ii and the holocaust/shoah.

during the shoah, nazi's stole a tonne of art from museums + nations but also individuals--mostly from jews many of whom were the subjects of paintings, art collectors, friends w artists, art dealers, etc. some of these works were burned, some went into nazi + collaborators collections such as goring's , some of them were lost, some were kept in caves and were ultimately damaged beyond repair, some of them eventually entered into museums like the belvedere (that's a reference to the story of the bloch-bauers), and a large amount (1.5 k) were marked destroyed and then kept by this war profiteer and art "dealer" hildebrand gurlitt.

after the holocaust, a lot of art was missing, destroyed, or missing provenance (which verifies that that piece is real + authentic and is what gives art its value on the market--without provenance, art loses values in huge amounts). some of the art stolen from jews ended up in the hands of collectors and art houses like sotheby's. then in the 1950's the impressionist and modern art dept. in sotheby's opens (which is the type of art chiefly being stolen from jews). then in 1958 there is the huge record-breaking sale of the goldschmidt collection--a collection auctioned off by the nazis in the 40's and somehow ends up in england at sotheby's...

here's a quote abt this famous 1958 event:

It has often been said that the modern art market was born at 9:30 pm on 15 October 1958, a time and date which corresponds to a sale that ended with a total of almost $20.2 million in today’s money, an impressive record at that time. On that evening, the traditional way of auctioning artworks was transformed into a glamorous and ‘modern’ event. Peter Wilson, Sotheby’s newly appointed chairman, literally stage-managed the sale of seven paintings from the Jakob Goldschmidt collection. It was not only the first evening sale, but also the first “Gala sale”, i.e. by invitation only, with ball gowns for the ladies and dinner jackets for the men. Moreover, the television cameras, also newly invited, focused on socialites and movie stars.

x

so basically this event launched the modern art market. following that in the 60's, art becomes an investment and something that celebrities/people of acclaim definitely want to get their hands on. art shoots up in prices. much of the art on the 50's-60's market that's costing millions of dollars is art stolen by the nazis.

art only continued to grow in value in the 60's and on. christie's and sotheby's competed to break records of how big the sales could be. i found this cover on sotheby's when refreshing my memory on these events:

[id: image of andy warhol on the cover of newsweek next to one of his pop-art portraits of marilyn monroe. the contents advertised next to warhol are typed out in white font: Art for Money's Sake; On the Block: the Warhol Collection; The Booming Art Market. end ID]

x

i learned about this in uni so a lot of this is from my memory and a brief review of notes/articles linked above. sorry this is so long lol.

if you want to learn more i'd look at herman goring, the degenerate art exhibition, hildebrand gurlitt + his son cornelius, and the book the lady in gold by anne-marie o'connor just to get started.

i also wasn't referring specifically to this but generally a lot of art pieces, artifacts, ritual objects, etc. in trade, in collection or at museums, are there bc of colonialism + genocide.

anyway feel free to ask more questions!!

#fun tidbit: the art auctioneer at the local sotheby's here was stealing art and trading #holocaust -#shoah -
