THE BLUES BROTHERS is a story of friendship and film, race and revival, rhythm and blues. The 1980 movie stands as a landmark of American cinema and popular culture: A glorious meeting of the nation's white and black musical traditions, a moment of rebirth for the legends of African-American music, and the crowning achievement of three iconic talents in television and cinema, comedic actors John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd and director John Landis. The Blues Brothers marked a paradigm shift in the comedy and musical genres of cinema, a passing of the torch to a young and restless generation of writers and performers raised on television, and the arrival of Chicago as a cinematic setting. Dismissed by critics and shunned by theater owners upon its release, The Blues Brothers matured into a cinema classic. One of cinema's great comedies, The Blues Brothers also offered a groundbreaking vision for a modern, urban musical. The Blues Brothers endures, too, as a symbol of Hollywood excess, the heady, coke-fuelled peak of a doomed artistic partnership. THE BLUES BROTHERS chronicles the making of an iconic American film, and how the movie uses comedy to convey an important message about music, race and the American experience. Among other things, the book will reveal the true purpose of the mission that fueled the Blues Brothers enterprise: to revive the careers of America's greatest icons of rhythm and blues. This transcendent quest sets The Blues Brothers apart from the other fine comedy films of its era, securing a place for Aykroyd, Belushi and Landis in the turbulent history of race in America-in this case, as white Americans who leveraged their fame to raise the currency of great Black American musicians.

Zur Ausstellung erscheint ein Buch mit einem Essay von Daniel Muzyczuk, der die Hintergründe von Ridniys neuem Film The District und sein Interesse an der Theorie des Sehens des polnischen Künstlers Wladyslaw Strzeminski (1893-1952) beleuchtet.

Jedes Buch enthält ein zufällig ausgewähltes Motiv, wie eine geteilte Erinnerung.Text: Anna RemeSová.

Guy Ben Ner macht aus wenig viel, indem er sich selbstund sein privates Umfeld radikal in seine künstlerischePraxis mit einbezieht. Die Wohnung seiner Familie in TelAviv dient dem Videokünstler genauso als Drehort wie dieFilialen einer Möbelkette. In diesen oft grotesken Settingsoffenbart sich der Einfluss von Wirtschaft und Politik aufdie intimsten menschlichen Beziehungen.Dabei ist es die Diskrepanz zwischen improvisierten Drehsituationenund der Stringenz der künstlerischen Konzepte,die sein Werk auszeichnen. Im Gespräch mit dem engenFreund und Künstlerkollegen Christian Jankowski gibt BenNer Einblick in den Entstehungsprozess seiner Werke. Dennwas im Video improvisiert und zufällig wirkt, basiert aufmonatelangen Recherchen und gründet in einem umfangreichenfilmhistorischen Wissen. Entlang von Begriffen wie»Ästhetik«, »Fantasie«, »Familie« oder »Zitat« entwickeltKuratorin Fanni Fetzer ein Alphabet des Widerstands in BenNers OEuvre. Die Publikation will die klare politische Haltungdes Künstlers und seine Strategie, spielerisch Widerstandzu leisten, vermitteln. Der Videokünstler GUY BEN NER (*1969, Ramat Gan, Israel) lebt und arbeitet in Tel Aviv. 2003 schloss er sein Studium der bildenden Kunst an der Columbia Universität in New York City ab. 2005 bespielte er an der Biennale Venedig den israelischen Pavillon und wurde 2022 mit einer umfassenden Retrospektive im Tel Aviv Museum of Art geehrt.
Vi bærer historien i os hele livet, ikke bare vores individuelle historie og erindring, vores familie- og slægtshistorie, men også den størrehistorie, vores liv er en del af. Erindringen er en vigtig del af vores liv og identitet. Den handler ikke bare om fortiden, men også om nutiden og fremtiden. Samfundet i dag er gennemsyret af film og andre medier, herunder også af erindringsbilleder og historiske fortællinger. De historiske fortællinger og erindringsbilleder, vi oplever og fascineres af, er i høj grad med til at påvirke os individuelt. De etablerer også en forbindelse til en større, kollektiv historie. Denne bog analyserer de centrale historiske genrer inden for både fiktive og dokumentariske filmfortællinger. Den påviser, hvordan film formår at gøre historien levende, og dermed være et væsentligt alternativ og supplement til historievidenskaben. Den filmiske historiefortælling skaber ikke bare en oplevelse af en historisk virkelighed. Den igangsætter også refleksioner over fortid og nutid. Bogens analyser fokuserer både på film, der bruger instruktørens egne barndoms- og familieerindringer som materiale for erindrings- og tidsbilleder, på film, der graver dybt i den historiske hverdagshistorie, og på film som skildrer kendte historiske personer. Den beskæftiger sig også med historiske film, hvor 2. verdenskrig er i centrum, og dermed med fortolkningskampen om store, centrale, historiske begivenheder.

"Once called "the most gifted character actor of our time" by Broadway theater producer Arthur Hopkins, Lionel Barrymore (1878-1954) was part of the illustrious Barrymore acting dynasty. Although he garnered success on stage and screen and was a talented actor, writer, director, visual artist, and composer, he never quite escaped the shadow of his family members-including his brother, John, famous for his leading roles. Barrymore won the Academy Award for Best Actor in A Free Soul (1931) and was nominated for Best Director for Madame X (1930). However, he is best known for his role as Mr. Potter in It's a Wonderful Life (1946) and as the voice of Ebenezer Scrooge in radio broadcasts of A Christmas Carol from 1934 to 1953. He spent the last two decades of his career playing versions of his signature character-the curmudgeonly but lovable gentleman-in a variety of films from You Can't Take It With You (1938) to Key Largo (1948). Barrymore worked alongside some of Hollywood's most recognizable names, including Humphrey Bogart, James Stewart, Frank Capra, Lauren Bacall, Clark Gable, and Ava Gardner, and his legacy is enshrined at the Hollywood Walk of Fame, where he has two stars-one for radio and one for film. In Lionel Barrymore: Character and Endurance in Hollywood's Golden Age, Kathleen Spaltro examines Barrymore as an individual rather than just a supporting cast member of the famous dynasty. This comprehensive study divides Barrymore's life into three compelling acts. Act One follows Barrymore's early days-his failed endeavor as a visual artist, his performances in the family vaudeville acts, his first silent motion pictures, and his greatest successes and failures on the stage. Act Two details Barrymore's establishment as a fixture at MGM, his foray into directing, his success as the first actor to thrive in the talkies, and his estimable Oscar-winning performance. Finally, Act Three expounds on Barrymore's curation of his trademark character-the endearing grouch-his exploits in radio, and his fateful final years. Spaltro also unearths Barrymore's personal challenges, recounts his difficulties with-and sometimes estrangement from-members of his family, and delves into the devastating losses Barrymore suffered: his divorce, the deaths of his two daughters, and later, the death of his second wife and the accidents that eventually consigned him to a wheelchair. Lionel Barrymore is a detailed, multifaceted portrait of a brilliant character actor"--

To break the cycle and make change that sticks, it's important to stop looking at headline-making stories as individual events.

She draws on decades of experience to connect the dots and illuminate the deeper forces sustaining Hollywood's corrosive culture. Fresh reporting sheds light on problematic situations at companies like Lucasfilm and shows like Lost, Saturday Night Live, The Goldbergs, Sleepy Hollow, Curb Your Enthusiasm and more.Interviews with actors and famous creatives like Evan Rachel Wood, Harold Perrineau, Damon Lindelof, and Orlando Jones abound. Ryan dismantles, one by one, the myths that the entertainment industry promotes about itself, which have allowed abusers to thrive and the industry to avoid accountability?myths about Hollywood as a meritocracy, what it takes to be creative, the value of human dignity, and more.Weaving together insights from industry insiders, historical context, and pop-culture analysis, Burn It Down paints a groundbreaking and urgently necessary portrait of what's gone wrong in the entertainment world?and how we can fix it.
