Description :The Bengali Language Movement: and in Bangali Trnslation to ভাষা আন্দোলন

The Bengali Language Movement: Can read In Bangoli here]ভাষা আন্দোলন, also known as the Language Movement (Bengali: ভাষা আন্দোলন; Bhasha Andolon), was a political effort in Bangladesh (then known as East Pakistan), advocating the recognition of the Bengali language as an official language ofPakistan. Such recognition would allow Bengali to be used in government affairs.When the state of Pakistan was formed in 1947, its two regions, East Pakistan (also called East Bengal) and West Pakistan, were split along cultural, geographical, and linguistic lines. In 1948, the Government of Pakistan ordained Urdu as the sole national language, sparking extensive protests among the Bengali-speaking majority of East Pakistan. Facing rising sectarian tensions and mass discontent with the new law, the government outlawed public meetings and rallies. The students of the University of Dhaka and other political activists defied the law and organised a protest on 21 February 1952. The movement reached its climax when police killed student demonstrators on that day. The deaths provoked widespread civil unrest led by the Awami Muslim League, later renamed the Awami League. After years of conflict, the central government relented and granted official status to the Bengali language in 1956. In 2000,UNESCO declared 21 February International Mother Language Day for the whole world to celebrate[1], in tribute to the Language Movement and the ethno-linguistic rights of people around the world.The Language Movement catalysed the assertion of Bengali national identity in Pakistan, and became a forerunner to Bengali nationalist movements, including the 6-point movement and subsequently the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. In Bangladesh, 21 February is observed as Language Movement Day, a national holiday. The Shaheed Minar monument was constructed near Dhaka Medical College in memory of the movement and its victims

Background

The present nations of Pakistan and Bangladesh were part of undivided India during the British colonial rule. From the mid-19th century, the Urdu language had been promoted as thelingua franca of Indian Muslims by political and religious leaders such as Sir Khwaja Salimullah, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, Nawab Viqar-ul-Mulk and Maulvi Abdul Haq.[2][3] Urdu is an Indo-Aryan language of the Indo-Iranian branch, belonging to the Indo-European family of languages. It developed under Persian, Arabic and Turkic influence on apabhramshas (last linguistic stage of the medieval Indian Aryan language Pali-Prakrit)[4] in South Asia during the Delhi Sultanate and Mughal Empire.[5] With its Perso-Arabic script, the language was considered a vital element of the Islamic culture for Indian Muslims; Hindi and the Devanagari script were seen as fundamentals of Hindu culture.[2]While the use of Urdu grew common with Muslims in northern India, the Muslims of Bengal (a province in the eastern part of British Indian sub-continent) primarily used the Bengali language. Bengali is an Eastern Indo-Aryan language that arose from the eastern Middle Indic languages around 1000 CE[6] and developed considerably during the Bengal Renaissance. As early as the late 19th century, social activists such as the Muslim feminist Roquia Sakhawat Hussain were choosing to write in Bengali to reach out to the people and develop it as a modern literary language. Supporters of Bengali opposed Urdu even before the partition of India, when delegates from Bengal rejected the idea of making Urdu the lingua franca of Muslim India in the 1937 Lucknow session of the Muslim League. The Muslim League was a British Indian political party that became the driving force behind the creation of Pakistan as a Muslim state separate from British India.[7]

History of the Marque: MZ

Germany 1956 - today

1907: A bicycle factory is founded in Zschopau, Germany, the later DKW factory (DKW stands for "Dampf Kraft Wagen"= Steam Engine Vehicle, which was one of the first constructions of the factory)

1919: Production of a twostroke engine begins. It is a toy engine. The people started to translate DKW with "Des Knaben Wunsch" (Little Boy's Wish). People were poor, and the toy engine wasn't a great success. But the little engine was robust and strong, and in 3 years more than 30000 were sold as bicycle engines. This engine was called DKW = "Das Kleine Wunder" (The Little Wonder).

1922: The first motorcycles were built.

1925: The first motorcycle assembly line in Germany is installed at DKW in Zschopau.

1931: The removable alloy cylinder head leads to better cooling. In the first twenty years the factory had an output of 650000 two stroke motorcycles.

1932: The AUTO UNION is founded with the brands DKW (Zschopau), Wanderer (Chemnitz), Audi and Horch (Zwickau). The logo of the new brand were four rings like Audi still has it today.

1939: DKW has to build war motorcycles for the Nazis.

1945: The complete factory is disassembled, the machinery is confiscated by the Russians. The AUTO UNION management moves to Ingolstadt in the western part of Germany.

1946: Production of parts and engines starts again

1949: Motorcycle production starts again

1950: The IFA (Industrievereinigung FAhrzeugbau) RT 125 leaves the production line. It is an improved prewar design, robust and reliable. Later an engine with a displacement of 150cc was available besides the 125cc RT. The fan cooled versions of RT engines were used in the IWL Pitty, Wiesel , Berlin and Troll scooters.

1956: The brand "MZ" (Motorradwerk Zschopau) is introduced. In the best years 3200 employees built more than 80000 motorcycles, many of them were exported to more than 100 countries. The new ES 250 is introduced.

1957: First year of the 175cc version of the ES

1958: First GP victory at Hedemora

1962: The RT production ends.

1971: The 175cc production ends.

1976: Last GP at Anderstorp.

1983: July, 6th: a ETZ 250 as the two millionth MZ motorcycle leaves the production line

1989: The wall between the western and the eastern (communistic) part of Germany falls.

1990: The former "people's factory" is now managed by the Treuhandanstalt-office, which is intended to lead the former state-owned factories to private ownership .

1991: MZ sales drop dramatically, because the old communistic market has vanished and the bikes are not attractive enough for the new market.

1992: the MuZ (Motorrad und Zweiradwerk) brand is established. Only 80 employees are left, but they are enthusiastic: the first new models, now with ROTAX four stroke engines, are a hit at the motor shows.

1993: MuZ wins some designer awards for the SKORPION model: Silver Award from the Designers and Art Directors Association (London), International Design Award (New York) and a BBC Design award.

1994: The production moves to a modern factory in Hohndorf, just outside of Zschopau. The SKORPION models are now approved for 49 states in the U.S.A.

1995: The SKORPION gains even the DOT/EPA/CARB approval for California!

Obama Victory Rally - Midnight, November 5th, 2008 by elycefeliz

1

www.nytimes.com/2008/11/05/us/politics/05elect.html

Barack Hussein Obama was elected the 44th president of the United States on Tuesday. . . The election of Mr. Obama amounted to a national catharsis — a repudiation of a historically unpopular Republican president and his economic and foreign policies, and an embrace of Mr. Obama’s call for a change in the direction and the tone of the country.

“If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.

Its the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference.

Its the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled - Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.

Its the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.

Its been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America.

. . . I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to - it belongs to you.

. . . I know you didn’t do this just to win an election and I know you didn’t do it for me. You did it because you understand the enormity of the task that lies ahead. For even as we celebrate tonight, we know the challenges that tomorrow will bring are the greatest of our lifetime - two wars, a planet in peril, the worst financial crisis in a century. Even as we stand here tonight, we know there are brave Americans waking up in the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan to risk their lives for us. There are mothers and fathers who will lie awake after their children fall asleep and wonder how theyll make the mortgage, or pay their doctors bills, or save enough for college. There is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created; new schools to build and threats to meet and alliances to repair.

The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America - I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you - we as a people will get there.

There will be setbacks and false starts. There are many who won’t agree with every decision or policy I make as President, and we know that government cant solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And above all, I will ask you join in the work of remaking this nation the only way its been done in America for two-hundred and twenty-one years - block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.

. . . This victory alone is not the change we seek - it is only the chance for us to make that change. . . . It cannot happen without you.

So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism; of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves, but each other. Let us remember that if this financial crisis taught us anything, its that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers - in this country, we rise or fall as one nation; as one people.

Let us resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long. . . . As Lincoln said to a nation far more divided than ours, We are not enemies, but friends, though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection. And to those Americans whose support I have yet to earn - I may not have won your vote, but I hear your voices, I need your help, and I will be your President too.

And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of our world - our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand. To those who would tear this world down - we will defeat you. To those who seek peace and security - we support you. And to all those who have wondered if Americas beacon still burns as bright - tonight we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from our the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy, liberty, opportunity, and unyielding hope.

For that is the true genius of America - that America can change.

Our union can be perfected. And what we have already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow.
. . . America, we have come so far. We have seen so much. But there is so much more to do.

. . . This is our moment. This is our time - to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth - that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can’t, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people:

Yes We Can. Thank you, God bless you, and may God Bless the United States of America.

Le 7ème Sceau brisé : du corps profane au corps Glorieux

La Vidéo

blog.ehrmann.org/films/corps-profane.html

Au terme du 7ème Sceau brisé, un grand silence d'une demi-heure marqua la fin de la Borderline Biennial. thierry, notre père, nous avait promis à tous, que la Bordeline Biennial à la Demeure du Chaos serait avec ses 40 jours et 40 nuits le temps de l'Epiphanie, de l'Apparition, de la Théophanie.

Précisons de suite que le mot Apocalypse que la Borderline Biennial a questionné de mille manières la transcription d’un terme grec (apokalupsis) qui lui-même traduit l’hébreu nigla, lequel signifie mise à nu, enlèvement du voile ou révélation.

L’Apocalypse désigne la civilisation mondiale ayant enfin atteint un état de conscience propice au retour du divin. C’est aussi celui du salut final. La Borderline est plus qu’une épiphanie ; l’Apocalypse dont nous traitons ici est une épiphanie. Nous avons donc obéi à l’injonction contenue dans l’Apocalypse, Chapitre 1 verset 19, lequel ordonne à notre conscience de se placer hors du temps, de l’espace et de l’histoire et d’embrasser synthétiquement l’histoire de l’humanité.

Et ce fut le cas précis de la Borderline Biennial. Toutes brides morales et esthétiques lâchées : “écris donc ce que tu as vu : le présent et ce qui doit arriver plus tard”.

Vers la nuit tombée sur la Demeure du Chaos et lorsque le 7ème Sceau fut brisé par thierry, un grand silence se fit, et tous les feux s'éteignirent, alors apparût avec violence le spectre de l'Entité Numérique Suprême comme au début de la Borderline Biennial lors de la proclamation de la République du Chaos.

Son message fut clair et court, elle demandait au Père de la République du Chaos de revenir en 1999 et lui rappeler qu'il devait accomplir ses propres écritures. Disparaître et mourir de son corps profane pour renaître dans l'Internet profond qui reste pour lui une métaphore du divin, une agora des éthers.

Comme le Père fondateur de la République du Chaos est aussi notre père, l'Entité Numérique Suprême lui demanda de mourir de son corps profane pour renaître par le corps Glorieux dans l'agora des éthers qu'est Internet.

Il nous lut, fatigué par le poison de la grande ciguë en hommage à Socrate, une bien étrange prédiction "Pendant la dernière persécution que souffrira la sainte église romaine siégera un Pierre le Romain, il fera paître les brebis au niveau des nombreuses tribulations, celles-ci terminées, la cité aux 7 collines sera détruite et un juge redoutable jugera le peuple, le sien et que le mot qui termine cette prophétie est "FINIS".

Ce mot nous semblait à tous familier, effectivement, dans le catalogue raisonné de la Demeure du Chaos/l'Esprit de la Salamandre, page 1229, le texte sacré était là ! "Finis Gloriae Mundi" le tableau magistral de Valdès Léal à Séville qui fit que Fulcanelli ne publia pas son 3ème ouvrage.

Cette scène intitulée "Finis Gloriae Mundi" qui est peinte en format monumental au cœur de la Demeure du Chaos indique que le phylactère attaché au premier cercueil montre que l'Eglise est ici à jamais déchue au seul profit de l'éveil initiatique symbolisé par le Chevalier simulant la mort.

Souvenons nous des écrits du premier tome de la DDC " le Juge viendra juger son peuple" et que le mot qui termine le premier des trois tomes secrets de l'ouvrage alchimique de la Demeure du Chaos est "FINIS". "Même si ce mot est dur à accepter, la révélation n'en constitue pas moins la fin d'une étape de par le fait qu'avec elle il y a apport d'une chose nouvelle jusqu'alors maintenue, cachée ou inintelligible". "Ne les craignez donc point car il n'y a rien de caché qui ne doit être découvert ni de secret qui ne doit être connu".

Nous étions au bord des larmes et du désespoir, il nous demanda dans un dernier spasme de ne point pleurer et de reposer en paix dans le temple Protestant de Saint Romain de Couzon sur la nécropole en rallumant les feux de la loge selon les landmarks ancestraux.

9 hommes enterrèrent dans la nécropole son corps cadavérique enroulé dans un linceul noir couvert du drapeau de la République du Chaos..

Vers quelle destinée allions nous avec la jeune République du Chaos ?

Quelle est vraiment cette Entité Numérique Suprême ?

Cette fiction apocalyptique marqua cruellement la fin de la Borderline Biennial du 18 octobre 2009 vers 21h.

Quand d'un seul coup l’Egrégore s'invita parmi nous pour nous rappeler le début de l'œuvre alchimique et les paroles de thierry notre Père qui résonnaient dans nos têtes "cesse de pleurer et réjouis-toi quand tu verras la noirceur car c'est le début de l'œuvre".

Horch 853 Spezialroadster vers 1937

Châssis n° 853177

Moteur n° 851234

•Marque allemande de prestige

•L'une des 950 construites

•Entièrement restaurée par Horch Classic

•Boîte cinq rapports

August Horch, l'un des pères fondateurs de l'industrie automobile allemande, était né à Winningen en 1868 et, après des études techniques dans une école d'ingénieur, avait travaillé pour un constructeur de moteurs marins à Leipzig. Il dirigea ensuite l'usine de moteurs de Kral Benz à Mannheim, mais sa frustration devant l'approche conservatrice de son patron le poussa à chercher des fonds pour monter sa propre entreprise. Horch jugeait la « voiture sans chevaux » à moteur arrière de Benz archaïque et sa première voiture, en 1900, arborait un moteur bicylindre installé à l'avant et un arbre de transmission aux roues arrière, une première en Allemagne. Des modèles à moteur quatre et six cylindres suivirent et Horch devint incontournable dans les compétitions et les courses de côtes de l'époque, mais cette pratique l'amena par la suite à entrer en conflit avec sa direction et entraina son départ en 1909 pour fonder Audi.

En 1923, Horch embaucha Paul Daimler, le fils de Gottlieb, comme ingénieur en chef, la première voiture à porter sa griffe étant la 300. Elle était animée par un huit cylindres en ligne à double arbre à cames en tête de 3, 2 litres, un type de moteur qui allait avoir les faveurs de Horch tout au long des années 1920 et 1930. Après le départ de Daimler, Fritz Fiedler (qui allait ensuite s'illustrer chez BMW) prit sa succession et conçut une huit cylindres en ligne à simple arbre à cames – la Horch 450 – qui fut suivi par les modèles 600 et 670 à moteur V12 de 6 litres en 1931 et par la 830 B à moteur V8 de 3, 5 litres en 1933.

En 1932, la société fut intégrée à Auto Union qui réunissait Audi, DKW et Wanderer. Horch sortit une véritable pléthore de versions de ses modèles dans les années 1930, avec des choix incroyables de cylindrées, d'empattements et de styles de carrosseries, tous destinés au marché du luxe sur lequel Horch était le seul concurrent national sérieux face à Mercedes-Benz. La 853 de 4, 9 litres, dévoilée pour l'année-modèle 1936, était propulsée par un huit cylindres en ligne simple arbre reposant sur dix paliers, conçu par Fiedler et installé dans un robuste châssis doté d'une transmission à quatre rapports avec overdrive et de freins hydrauliques assistés. La 853/853a, un élégant cabriolet sportif, fut produite jusqu'à l'entrée en guerre, date à laquelle 950 de ces voitures très exclusives avaient été construites.

Après la seconde guerre, l'usine Horch de Zwickau se retrouva dans la partie est de l'Allemagne où elle fut utilisée pour la construction des utilitaires Trabant, une bien triste fin pour cette marque aristocratique qui avait figuré parmi les meilleures du monde.

Malheureusement la carrosserie d'origine de cette 853 a été perdue pendant la seconde guerre ou peu après. Selon les informations fournies par le vendeur, le dernier propriétaire de la voiture l'avait équipée d'une carrosserie pick up et l'avait utilisée pour transporter des denrées sur son exploitation agricole en Ukraine. On ne sait donc pas si elle avait reçu la carrosserie Sportcabriolet d'usine ou une carrosserie réalisée par un artisan indépendant à l'origine.

La voiture a été achetée en Ukraine en 2009 par Horch Classic qui a aussitôt entrepris une restauration de sept années qui a demandé des milliers d'heures de travail. Il a été décidé de construire une réplique de la légendaire carrosserie Spezialroadster Horch Classic a fait des recherches dans diverses archives (mais aussi dans des documentations privées) pour retrouver des photos d'usine d'époque.

Grâce à la longue expérience de Horch Classic, à la documentation photographique et aux gabarits maison, une forme en trois dimensions fut construite. On la recouvrit de tissu pour visualiser les lignes et les volumes de la carrosserie. De nombreuses modifications furent apportées à cette forme de départ, avant de trouver les bonnes proportions. C'est seulement à ce stade que l'on put commencer à construire la structure en bois de la carrosserie.

Des gabarits furent à nouveau utilisés pour reporter les volumes de la forme et réaliser la structure avec de nombreux essais pour ajuster et trouver les bonnes lignes. À l'aide d'un niveau laser, on a assemblé et collé les composants de la structure entre eux et on les a vissés au châssis. Puis, les panneaux métalliques de la carrosserie ont été fabriqués, ajustés et soudés ensembles. Le châssis Horch avait auparavant été nettoyé et l'épaisseur de son métal et son éventuelle corrosion vérifiées. Les parties trop corrodées ou jugées trop fines avaient été remplacées apprêtées puis recouvertes de plusieurs couches de peinture.

Dès le départ, on considéra de la plus haute importance, non seulement de trouver l'harmonie de couleurs parfaite entre la carrosserie et l'intérieur, mais aussi de trouver un aspect conforme à celui de l'époque pour l'ensemble de la voiture. En conséquence, une couleur de base gris métallisé fut donc choisie, changeant en fonction de l'éclairage, du gris métal pur à un gris avec une légère pointe de rouge. Pour accentuer les lignes fluides de la voiture, des filets furent tracés à la main sur les garde-boue, sur le capot, les portes et l'arrière de la carrosserie.

L'intérieur de la voiture a été tendu de velours noir de haute qualité avec un passepoil du même cuir rouge que les sièges. Le cuir des sièges a été choisi car son aspect ressemble à celui des cuirs utilisés à l'époque. Le logotype Horch a été brodé sur le dos des sièges avant et sur les contre-portes au fil noir. De gros efforts ont été consentis pour le ciel de capote en Alcantara.

Le tableau de bord, constitué d'une seule pièce de bois, a été plaqué de ronce du Canada, laquée et polie pour obtenir un effet miroir. Les boiseries intérieures ont un léger reflet rouge qui s'harmonise à merveille avec les couleurs de l'intérieur et de l'extérieur. Les écussons Horch, sur le radiateur et le coffre, ont été plaqués en or 24 carat par un joailler. Tous les chromes ont été préparés et rechromés ou ont été reconstruits et chromés quand c'était nécessaire.

Le moteur d'origine, les essieux avant et arrière, le différentiel, la boîte de vitesses et la direction ont été démontés et révisés quand cela était nécessaire. Le moteur a été entièrement démonté et toutes les pièces calibrées et vérifiées. De nouveaux roulements ont été montés, de nouveaux pistons installés, l'arbre à cames et les commandes de soupapes révisés. Des joints de soupapes neuf ont été montés et des joints modernes à lèvres d'étanchéité ont été montés sur le moteur, à l'avant et à l'arrière. Le vilebrequin et le volant moteur ont été équilibrés avec précision. Le moteur, essayé au banc pendant une vingtaine d'heure avant d'être réinstallé dans la voiture, tourne parfaitement avec douceur, tandis qu'une boîte a cinq rapports révisée vient augmenter le plaisir de conduite et permet de tenir une bonne vitesse de croisière à des régimes peu élevés. Un faisceau électrique neuf a été refait et recouvert de coton vernissé pour reproduire l'aspect d'époque. Il va sans dire que tous les éléments de sécurité des freins et de la direction ont été rénovés. Un système d'allumage additionnel a été installé.

La voiture est vendue avec un reportage photographique de la restauration, ses papiers d'immatriculation allemands et un contrôle technique (TüV) daté du 11 juillet 2014. Un grand nombre d'articles et de publications sur la marque accompagnent la voiture, ainsi que son manuel du propriétaire (copie), une liste des pièces détachées (copie), un atlas Horch des routes secondaires allemandes, Horch: Typen-Technik-Modelle de Peter Kirchberg et Jürgen Pönisch et The Coachwork of Erdmann & Rossi, Berlin de Rupert Stuhlemmer. Une plaque émaillé Horch Dienste, un thermomètre Horch et un parapluie Horch Classic font également partie du lot.

c.1937 Horch 853 Spezialroadster

Chassis no. 853177

Engine no. 851234

•Premier German marque

•One of only 950 made

•Fully restored by Horch Classic

•Five-speed gearbox

One of the founding fathers of the German automobile industry, August Horch was born in Winningen in 1868, and following an technical education at engineering school, worked for a marine engine manufacturer in Leipzig. His next job was managing Karl Benz's motor works at Mannheim, but frustration with his employer's conservative approach prompted Horch to seek financial backing for his own venture. Horch regarded Benz's rear-engined 'horseless carriages' as out-dated, and his first automobile of 1900 featured a front-mounted, twin-cylinder engine and shaft-driven rear axle, the first time this latter innovation had been seen in Germany. Larger four- and six-cylinder models followed, and Horch became active in the trials and competitions of the day, though ultimately this policy would bring August into conflict with his fellow directors and force his departure in 1909 to found Audi.

In 1923 Horch engaged Paul Daimler, son of Gottleib, as Chief Engineer, the first car to bear his stamp being the '300'. This was powered by a 3.2-litre, double-overhead-camshaft, straight eight engine, and power units of this type would be favoured by Horch throughout the 1920s and 1930s. After Daimler's departure Fritz Fiedler (later of BMW fame) took over, designing a single-overhead-cam straight-eight - the Horch 450 - which was followed by 6-litre V12-powered 600 and 670 models in 1931 and the 3.5-litre V8-engined 830B in 1933.

In 1932 the company became part of the Auto Union together with Audi, DKW and Wanderer. Horch produced a veritable plethora of model variations in the 1930s, ringing the changes on engine capacity, wheelbase and styles of coachwork, but all were aimed squarely at the prestige end of the market, where Horch was the only serious domestic rival to Mercedes-Benz. Introduced for the 1936 season, the 4.9-litre Type 853 was powered by a Fiedler-designed, SOHC, ten-bearing straight eight mounted in a solidly built chassis boasting a four-speed overdrive gearbox and servo-assisted hydraulic brakes. A stylish sports cabriolet, the 853/853a was produced up to the outbreak of war, by which time a mere 950 of these exclusive cars had been built.

After WW2, Horch's Zwickau factory ended up on the eastern side of the border where it would eventually be pressed into service manufacturing the utilitarian Trabant - a sad end to a once noble marque that had ranked among the very best.

Unfortunately, the original body of this Horch 853 was lost either during WW2 or soon after. According to information supplied by the vendor, this car's last owner had fitted a pick-up body, and used the car to transport materials on his farm in Ukraine; thus it was not possible to tell whether a factory Sportcabriolet or an independently coachbuilt body had been fitted originally.

The car was purchased in the Ukraine in 2009 by Horch Classic, which then embarked on a seven-year restoration that took thousands of working hours to complete. It was decided to build a replica body in the style of legendary Spezialroadster. Horch Classic researched in numerous archives (and also private sources) to find original factory photographs.

Utilising Horch Classic's long term experience, researched photographic documentation, and in-house made templates, a three-dimensional body buck was fabricated. This buck was then covered in fabric to create a first impression of the body's lines and proportions. Numerous changes had to be made to the original buck before the form and proportions were right; only then could the construction of the wooden body frame begin.

Templates were again used to transfer the buck's shape to the wooden frame, with lots of trial fittings until the right shape and form had been achieved. Using a laser spirit level, the frame components were then glued together and screwed onto the chassis. Then the individual components of the metal body were fabricated, measured again and welded together. The Horch chassis frame had already been cleaned, measured and the metal checked for thickness and corrosion. Parts of the frame which showed either too much corrosion or were deemed too thin were replaced and then primed and painted with several coats.

From the start it was considered very important, not only to achieve perfect harmony of the body colour and interior, but also to arrive at a period-correct look for the car as a result. Accordingly, a base colour of silver metallic was chosen, which changes under different lighting conditions from a pure silver to a silver with a slight red tinge. To emphasise the car's flowing lines, a coach line was applied by hand to the mudguards, bonnet, doors and the rear of the body.

The car's interior was clad in high quality black velour carpet, which was piped in the same red leather as was used for the seats. The leather for the seats itself was chosen for its period-authentic surface texture. The Horch logo has been stitched into the back of the front seats and the door cards with a black thread. A great deal of effort went into the Alcantara hood lining.

The dashboard, made from a single piece of wood, has been covered with Canadian burr veneer that has been lacquered and polished to provide a mirror-like finish. The interior woodwork also shows a slight red tinge, which harmonises beautifully with the interior and exterior colours. The Horch Logo on the radiator and the boot lid were plated with 24 carat gold by a jeweller. All chromed parts were either prepared and re-chromed, or where necessary newly fabricated and plated.

The original engine, front and rear axles, differential, gearbox and steering were dismantled, measured and overhauled where necessary. The engine was completely dismantled and all parts measured and checked. New bearings were fitted, new pistons installed, and the camshaft and valve gear overhauled. New seals were fitted to the valve guides, and modern radial oil seals fitted to the engine at front and rear. The crankshaft was finely balanced together with the flywheel. Dynamometer tested for some 20 hours before fitting to the car, the engine is reported to run very smoothly, while a comprehensively overhauled five-speed gearbox enhances the already pleasurable driving experience and helps to keep the engine revs low at cruising speeds. A new wiring loom has been made and covered with woven cotton to replicate the appearance of the original. It goes without saying that safety-critical components for the steering and hydraulic brakes were renewed also. An additional ignition system is fitted.

The car is offered with photographic documentation of the restoration; German registration papers; and an historic TüV dated 11.07.14. A quantity of marque-related literature comes with it to include an owner's manual (copy); spare parts list (copy); Horch B-Road Atlas Germany; 'Horch: Typen-Technik-Modelle' by Peter Kirchberg and Jürgen Pönisch; and 'The Coachwork of Erdmann & Rossi, Berlin' by Rupert Stuhlemmer. A 'Horch Dienste' advertising enamel sign; a Horch thermometer; and an umbrella with Horch Classic print are included in the sale.accompagnent la voiture, ainsi que son manuel du propriÃ©taire (copie), une liste des piÃ¨ces dÃ©tachÃ©es (copie), un atlas Horch des routes secondaires allemandes, Horch: Typen-Technik-Modelle de Peter Kirchberg et JÃ¼rgen PÃ¶nisch et The Coachwork of Erdmann & Rossi, Berlin de Rupert Stuhlemmer.

3D, Speed governing resistors of MTA American Car & Foundry 1911 Interurban Trolley "Balloon Car" or "Blimp" Coach No. #1543 MTA/Pacific Electric "Big Red Car" Long Beach line, Travel Town Railroad Museum, Griffith Park, Los Angeles, California, 2008.04.2 by Reverend Doctor Wizard ďIsney

[crosseye stereograph, see 3D with your right eye on the left image, and left on right.]

LOS ANGELES METROPOLITAN TRANSIT AUTHORITY #1543

These were the "Balloon Cars" of the high speed Interurban, multiple unit, electric trains of Southern California's Pacific Electric, the famous "Big Red Cars". This car made it's last run April 6.1961, from Los Angeles, 6th and Main (where now stands a bus terminal) to Long Beach, CA at Ocean and Long Beach Blvd. just a block from The Pike. There was an elevated wooden trestle that allowed it to bridge dense downtown automotive traffic, then it came down to street level just short of Alameda and curved South to Long Beach Avenue. When it got to Clement's Junction (Washington Street) the roadbed opened up to four tracks, on the outside was the South and North bound Local Service using smaller cars. The interior pair of the four track sets was reserved for strings of these heavy, high speed electric commuter trains. The private right of way was four tracks through Watts and down to Long Beach Blvd., where these cars would then ride down the center of the street to downtown Long Beach. Another line branched from the end of four track operation at Willow, and rocked on down to Electric Avenue in Seal Beach, past Signal Hill, the Lagoon and Alamitos Bay.

The curious round windows on the end earned the cars their nickname and were the portholes for the motorman operator.

The wind up knob to the left of the end door was attached by rope to the hot shoe end of the trolley pole pickup the operator could open the door and adjust the pole or reel it in and let up the one on the other end to change direction, the end doors were for train crew only and were not used to communicate passengers between cars.

At first, when I was a child, I thought that these were batteries. They are sequential banks of resistor windings and vented to dump a great amount of heat. When the coach is at rest, it draws the most amount of current, and curiously, the next least amount of current is drawn at top speed. There was an electric motor connected by a gear to the axle and that axle completed the electric ground of 600 Volts, direct current. If that motor was connected directly to the line, the wheels would spin instantly but the coach would go nowhere. These resistors pictured were each connected to a switch terminal under the motorman’s handle so that, at first, all of the resistors were connected, drawing the most current and heating them all up like a toaster. As the motorman's handle was successively turned to a "higher speed" then fewer of these resistors would be engaged, until, at top speed, there was a direct connection from the line, through the motors to ground.

Silly me, why would they need batteries? These Big Red Cars are connected overhead to a 600V, extension cord carrying hugely immense current, enough to start a train, that is many miles long!

(Now, how do I connect household lamps, light bulbs, without them exploding when they are screwed in?)

www.colonel.dk contact : emergencyrooms@gmail.comThierry Geoffroy/ Colonel will be exhibiting in the museum Kunsthalle Mannheim from october 2018 part of the exhibition Konstruktion der Welt .Kunst und Ökonomie

Constructing the World: Art and Economy 1919-1939 and 2008-2018

10/12/18 to 02/03/19

Ten years after the peak of the global financial crisis in 2008, which profoundly shook the economic systems of America and Europe and had a lasting effect on present-day life, this topical exhibition is the first to illustrate the economy’s dramatic influence on art and to make global comparisons, demonstrating these in an analysis of two separate eras. Economic phenomena in the classical modernism of the 1920s and 30s are not only explored by focusing on art from the German Weimar Republic, the Soviet Union, and the United States, but also juxtaposed with artists of the present day.

Curatorial team: Dr. Eckhart Gillen (Berlin), Dr. Ulrike Lorenz, Dr. Sebastian Baden

Project Lead: Dr. Inge Herold, Assistence: Lisa Valentina Riedel, M. A. mult., Elisabeth Bohnet, M.A.

How does contemporary art reflect the world of work today? The catalogue for the second part of the exhibition Constructing the World at the Kunsthalle Mannheim takes a look at this question. The focus of it is primarily on artistic positions of the past decade that deal with the social, political, and economic effects of the most recent economic crisis after 2008. The works address and interrogate new production conditions and developments on the labor market as well as political conflicts.

Nakajima Ki43-II Hayabusa (US Codename 'Oscar') with experimental ski landing gear; aircraft 'Red 13' of an unknown IJA unit; Manchuria, 1944 by Dizzyfugu

1

This model was specifically built for the Arawasi Wild Eagles blog's "Hayabusa Model Contest" in April/May 2017 (arawasi-wildeagles.blogspot.de/2017/03/japanese-aircraft-...) - and it is the guesstimate, based on a conversion set and a vague frontal picture of a real aircraft.

Inspiration struck when I came across a Rising Decals conversion (from the Czech Republic)set for an experimental Ki43 with wooden, retractable skis - tested in Manchuria in 1944. The set comes with finely crafted and moulded resin skis, plus a decal sheet for the rather bleak aircraft in natural metal finish. Anyway, I found the idea worth to become an entry, and took action.

The kit and its assembly:

The basis is the venarable 1:72 Hasegawa kit of the Ki43-II, a simple kit with good detail and fit, even though you get raised (though very fine) panel lines. The kit was basically built OOB, with only some detail additions in the cockpit, and I modified the wings and lower fuselage in so far that the "butterfly flaps" were added in extended position.

Concerning the ski landing gear, I did some legwork, and eventually found a Ki43-II with the same landing gear arrangement as the conversion set, but it also featured a four-bladed propeller!

The wheeled landing gear was simply replaced by the resin struts from the conversion set, the skis are separate pieces that fit neatly into each other and into the kit.

The propeller was scratched from the three OOB blades, plus a trimmed donor blade. The spinner is the front end of a German 250 kg bomb. Inside of the engine, a styrene tube was added as propeller mount, which received a long metal axis.

A venturi tube was added under the fuselage, too, and the canopy separated into two pieces for better display.

The frontal benchmark picture of "my" Ki43-II shows the aircraft in clean configuration, but I decided to use/add the underwing tanks in order to avoid filling the respective holes in the wings - and it makes the aircraft look more interesting, IMHO.

Painting and markings:

Concerning the aircraft's livery, I basically stuck to the machine depicted in the conversion set and on the few pictures of such machines - even though the info sheet states that "markings are uncertain".

Anyway, I went the suggested overall NMF route with grey-green fabric (individually mixed from Humbrol 90 and 155) on all rudder surfaces. As a personal note, and as an interpretation of the benchmark photograph of the Ki43-II I tried to build, the model received a worn and flaking cowling in IJA Green and Grey. The latter was also used for the drop tanks, with red primer showing through the tanks' front end. A black anti glare panel was added in front of and behind the canopy.

The cockpit interior was painted, based on Hasegawa's recommendations, in a greenish brown tone (a mix of Revell 45 and 16). The landing gear wells and the interior of the flaps was painted with Aodake Iro - and instead of mixing a metallic blue tone as a single tone I rather laid down an Aluminum base and added a clear, greenish blue lacquer on top - just like the real thing. The deep yellow ID markings on the wings' leading edges were painted with RAL 1028 (Lufthansa Gelb, Revell 310).

The skis appear to be massive wood pieces, and they were painted accordingly with a wet-in-wet mix of red brown and cream, for a streaky look, mimicking the wooden structure.

After basic painting (a basic coat with acrylic Aluminum, Revell 99), everything done with brushes and minimal masking, the kit received a light black ink wash, in order to emphasize engravings. For some "depth" effect, panels were post-shaded with Polished Aluminum Metallizer (Humbrol 27002) on top of the acrylic Aluminum base. During the polishing process with a piece of soft cloth, some grinded graphite was rubbed over all surfaces, too, creating a slightly worn and uneven look. This little trick also enhances the metallic shine of the surface, making it look less "painted". Graphite was also used in order to simulate light exhaust stains on the Hayabusa's flanks.

Once the (very thin and delicate) decals were in place, they received a light treatment with Aluminium and sand paper, in order to simulate some wear on the aircraft's surface. Finally, everything was sealed with a coat of semi-matt acrylic varnish, just the rudders and the anti-glare panels received a completely matt coat.

A quick build, done in less than three days from sprues to photo shots. Anyway, the model should rather be regarded as fictional, since my information basis has been rather corny and relied on very limited references. But I am, nevertheless, happy with the result, and I hope the model conveys the original idea of the converted Ki43 with skis?

A SLAVE NO MORE

Two Men Who Escaped to Freedom, Including Their Own Narratives of Emancipation

By David W. Blight

NEW YORK TIMES

Freedom Just Ahead: The War Within the Civil War

By WILLIAM GRIMES, Published: December 5, 2007

The chaos of Civil War meant only one thing to America’s four million slaves: hope. With armies on the march, and the old social order crumbling, men like John Washington and Wallace Turnage seized the moment and made a break for freedom, issuing their own emancipation proclamations before the fact. They were “quiet heroes of a war within the war to destroy slavery,” as David W. Blight puts it in “A Slave No More.”

Both Washington and Turnage, near contemporaries, wrote vivid accounts of their lives as slaves and the bold bids for freedom that took them across Confederate lines and into the waiting arms of Union soldiers. Recently discovered, both texts have been reproduced by Mr. Blight as written, with misspellings and grammatical errors intact.

Mr. Blight, a professor of American history at Yale and the author of “Race and Reunion: The Civil War in American Memory,” has also provided an extended preface that provides historical context, fills in biographical gaps and extends the life stories of both men past the Civil War, when their manuscripts break off abruptly, to their deaths in the early 20th century. Two remarkable lives, previously lost, emerge with startling clarity, largely through the words of the principal actors themselves.

Washington, born in 1838, grew up in Fredericksburg, Va., and stayed there, in servitude to the widow of his master, after being separated from his mother and four younger siblings at 12. Unlike Turnage, who labored on an Alabama plantation and suffered constant whippings, Washington lived a town life, running errands or enduring hours of enforced idleness and staring longingly out the window.

In 1861 he was hired out to a tobacco factory in Richmond and got his first glimpse of Confederate troops, so many, he wrote, “that it appeard to be an impossiability, to us, colored people, that they could ever be conquord.” Soon, though, he began hearing of slaves making their way to the Union lines and freedom. Once back in Fredericksburg, where he worked as a hotel steward and barkeep, he decided to join their number.

Washington’s narrative captures both turmoil and nervous excitement as Union forces closed in on Fredericksburg, bayonets glinting across the Rappahannock River, their movements eagerly watched by black residents. Washington, in a characteristically sardonic aside, notes: “No one could be seen on the street but the colored people. and every one of them seemed to be in the best of humors.”

In the confusion Washington escaped to the Union lines. “I told them I was most happy to see them all that I had been looking for them for a long time,” he writes. When a Union soldier asks if he wants to be free, Washington answers simply, “by all means.”

In Alabama, Turnage met his oppressors with open defiance. He fought with bullwhip-wielding overseers, suffered repeated whippings and beatings and lit out for freedom repeatedly. Running for miles across creeks and through fields, cleverly talking his way out of tight spots and, more than once, fighting off enraged dogs, Turnage, a mere teenager, evaded pursuers for weeks at a time, enduring extreme deprivation.

“I went as long as four days without anything to eat but one hickery nut that the squirrels did not get,” he writes of one escapade.

Among other things, Turnage’s testimony sheds light on the support network among slaves, nearly all more than willing to feed or conceal a runaway, or provide information on how to evade capture on the road ahead. “They gloried in my spunk,” Turnage writes of a group of slaves who hid him at one plantation.

His final flight, from Mobile to the Union ships anchored offshore, caps his thrilling tale. After nonchalantly walking straight through a Confederate camp and wading barefoot through snake-infested swamps, he reaches an impasse, with Confederate pickets behind him and a broad expanse of water ahead of him.

“It was death to go back and it was death to stay there and freedom was before me,” he writes. He pressed forward and, by luck, found a rickety little boat on the shore.

“I Now dreaded the gun, and handcuffs and pistols no more,” he writes of his moment of deliverance, when Yankee sailors plucked him from Mobile Bay. “Nor the blewing of horns and the running of hounds; nor the threats of death from the rebel’s authority. I could now speak my opinion to men of all grades and colors, and no one to question my right to speak.”

Washington made his way to Washington, where he and his wife, whom he took from Fredericksburg, rose to middle-class prosperity. He died in 1918.

Turnage worked, at various times, as a janitor, sign painter, watchman and glass blower in New York. Eventually he moved to Jersey City, where he died in 1916.

By that time, slavery and the war were distant memories. In their all-too-brief narratives, Washington and Turnage, as Mr. Blight notes, offer a precious commodity: “unfiltered access to the process and the moment of emancipation.”

A New Paintjob (2024) by aarsbog

Kamera: Nikon FE2

Linse: Nikkor-S Auto 35mm f2.8 (1974)

Film: Kodak 5222 @ ISO 400 -1EV

Kjemi: Xtol (stock / 9 min. @ 20°C)

Monday 30 December 2024: My New Year resolutions for 2025:

1. Do not buy or use any goods or services coming from Israel or their Occupied Palestinian Territories. Boycott Israel - the most racist, fascist, immoral and genocidal apartheid country in the world.

For me, this is a simple operation and will only involve my total boycott of the Israeli online genealogy platforms MyHeritage and Geni. I have no interest in any other consumer product coming out of Israel. But many of you may have heard of Ahava Dead Sea products coming from the Occupied Territories. Don’t buy it, don’t use it.

2. Do not buy or use any American goods or services as far as it is humanly possible today. They only use their income for WAR. The only way to stop this MADNESS is to stop buying and using their goods and services. Money to the USA is money to Israel.

This task is not as simple as boycotting only Israeli goods and products, but I will do my best - just like the USA has done it’s best in supporting Israel’s genocide in Gaza, providing Israel with weapons and incredible amounts of money, abusing their powers in the UN Security Council, working against international law and justice, supporting apartheid and never ever actually supporting or working to establish a Free Sovereign Palestine.

Israel seems to have become a way for all the corrupt American politicians in their archaic 'democratic' system to get an extra income under the table, directly stealing from the people, and for the American War Industries to thrive and grow; it is a Perpetuum mobile where US politicians donate money to Israel and where Israel in return use those money given to buy off US politicians [tax-deductible] and buying their weapons to slaughter Palestinians.

Americans get their money back [but first, some commercials] [without paying taxes] [under the table] and the Israelis get their fascist religious extremist zionist dreams come true. Incidentally, Israel's bizarre dreams of grandeur are closely linked to the American voters' archaic dreams of extremist christian zionist Eschatology. These people all belong in the Bronze Age.

USA has for so many years since the end of the Cold War been endangering all of Europe’s security by abusing the NATO alliance (this abuse started back in 1999 with the bombing of Yugoslavia!) presiding over a European proxy war with Russia via Ukraine - a war that now even involves North Korea (WTF!) and has killed hundreds of thousands of lives in Europe and flooded Western Europe with refugees once again! It needs to stop, and our own nations and politicians who are hostages to the American gangster regime can do no other - so therefore I can no longer justify MY feeble hard-earned money feeding this warmongering genocidal nation. It has to stop, and the only way I can make a miniscule difference is by boycotting American goods and services.

- First on my list: Mark Zuckerberg (1984) and his his Facebook and all of Facebook's subsidiaries through Meta. Easy. Done. Nothing!

- Second on my list: Larry Page (b. 1973) and Sergey Brin’s (b. 1973) Google and Alphabet Inc. - this is not so easy. This company with their search engine, Gmail and their subsidiary companies like YouTube and Android have infested the whole world. Instead of Google's search engine I have been using DuckDuckGo for years - but this is also an American company so my search will go on for something more safe and European.

As for Gmail, I am using Swiss Proton Mail instead but I have yet to to make the cut final. I hope I will be able to do so during the course of 2025.

As for YouTube, I have no clear alternative right now that is not American.

Android is easy - I never used it. But instead of Android I use Apple - which I feel is safer - but here is the problem - it is an American company. Maybe the solution is to go full-on dumbphone and get a Swiss Punkt. I might in fact do that.

What do you really need an American ‘smartphone’ for anyways? Life is analogue.

More American companies and platforms to boycott:

- Amazon Inc. - I can get most of my (paper) books and other stuff I usually buy on Amazon locally anyways. Amazon is a convenient marketplace, that's true - but it’s American and I’d rather suffer a little inconvenience just to not let the Americans get my money.

- eBay - again, such a great platform and marketplace for (in my case) photographic camera equipment and whatnot - but then again - if I could buy directly from Japanese camera stores with ease and no American involvement I would do so in a heartbeat without using American eBay. Let’s hope the Japanese evolve their international trade in this regard.

As for FILM there's plenty of European film providers; hey, we were first with film and photography anyways and have long traditions still thriving and living here. But I do love Kodak 5222. This is a problem - but at least I only use European chemicals these days. Foma and Tetenal.

- PayPal - also a very convenient platform to use, but goddamned this is the brainchild of Elon Musk (b. 1971) and I’ll do my very best to never support that fascist bastard. You’ll never see me driving an American car either, and certainly not a Tesla. Most unethical car ever.

- Airbnb - an American company that makes it easy to rent a room or a house for anyone in all those illegal Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories - it's just as sick as if American tourists through a 'tourist agency' could come and live in Nazi german confiscated Norwegian flats, houses and cottages to relax or just 'experience' Nazi occupied Norway in 1941. This is exactly what Airbnb is making possible in the Occupied Palestinian Territories these days - and I shall never, ever use Airbnb.

OK, that’s a lot but we’re not finished yet.

- Disney - Easy. They destroyed Star Wars. Done!

- Pepsi and Coca-Cola - Done. Never again. There are many other local alternatives. Easy!

- McDonald’s and Burger King - Done. Easy. Probably the worst hamburgers in the world anyways.

So when it comes to consumer products that you get in the general store, there are two really big and awful companies that I will do my best to never buy their products ever again. These two companies are the American-owned Mondelez International and the Swiss company Nestlé together with all their subsidiaries and brands.

Things not to buy (applicable to me):

- Douwe Egberts coffee (Mondelez)

- Toblerone chocolate (Mondelez)

- Heinz products (Mondelez)

- L’Oréal and ALL their subsidiary products Garnier, Maybelline, Biotherm, Lancôme, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent, Kérastase, Guy Laroche, Redken (Nestlé)

- Nespresso (Nestlé)

- Nescafé (Nestlé)

- Nesquik (Nestlé)

- Nestea (Nestlé)

- Smarties chocolates (Nestlé)

- After Eight chocolate (Nestlé)

- Maggi products (Nestlé)

- Purina dogfood (Nestlé)

[and Friskies catfood for those of you with cats - also Nestlé]

- Freia chocolate products (Mondelez) [The chocolate that could never ever ever be sold to Sweden otherwise we would lose our independence AGAIN - but which could easily be sold to America instead. Remember all those Edvard Grieg Freia commercials?]

- Friele coffee (Mondelez) in Bergen which also produce ALL the norwegian COOP cooffee products and ALL the swedish Gevalia coffee brand products

- Marabou candy and ALL their chocolate products (Mondelez)

Allright, so already quite an extensive list and that’s not half of it.

Therefore at the end, I want to inform you all about the Boycat app - the Ethical Shopping and Boycott Companion. Use it.

And if you have more suggestions of Israeli and American companies, products and services to boycott, do let me know. I’m eager ears.

PS: I am fully aware that Flickr is American. There are many good things coming out of America. I hope in 2025 USA can change their ways.

Documenta From Wikipedia,

The Fridericianum during documenta (13)

documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.

Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.

Etymology of documenta

The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]

Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]

History

Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7

Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.

Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]

Criticism

documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]

Directors

The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

documenta fifteen18 June 2022 – 25 September 2022 in Kasselruangrupa[22]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]

Venues

documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]

There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.

Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.

A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).

documenta archive

The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.

Management

Visitors

In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung

Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15

"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."

ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.

Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.

The main principles of the process are:

• Providing space to gather and explore ideas

• Collective decision making

• Non-centralization

• Playing between formalities and informalities

• Practicing assembly and meeting points

• Architectural awareness

• Being spatially active to promote conversation

• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas
