Frei Otto receives the Pritzker Prize posthumously:


On March 9th of this year, a few weeks before his 90th birthday, Frei Otto passed away. Shortly before his death he had learned that he was awarded this year’s Pritzker Prize. On May 15th, Frei Otto’s life and timeless work will be honoured with the prize giving Ceremony in Miami. The Praemium Imperiale and the Aga Khan Award count among the numerous other distinctions he has received for his art of construction.



The audiobook »Frei Otto - Finding Form - Jens Harzer speaks Frei Otto« will be published in May 2015:


As a homage to this great architect and friend of mankind the audiobook “Finding Form” with 4 CDs will be published by Cherbuliez Productions in May 2015. Frei Otto speaks about his life during war and captivity, about his quest and the research work he undertook in unison with a large group of scientists from many different disciplines, and about his construction and his buildings. The actor Jens Harzer lends him his voice and speaks his texts.



The audiobook originates from long talks with Gert Pfafferodt. It draws the listener into the history of a creative personage, his life-long development and evolvement.


Frei Otto – Architect, Visionary, Utopian:


The general public sees in Frei Otto the architect, engineer and visionary, the utopian, ecologist and pioneer. He considers himself a formsearcher and formfinder, a natural scientist. Maybe it was Frei Otto’s giftedness for interdisciplinary thinking which was his pre-eminent genius. The work for which his name stands all over the world is “light” architecture, minimal construction. His highly aesthetic buildings set the benchmark for an ecologically responsible form finding process and shape the architecture of the 20th century. His constructions confirm the cognitions of Nature. They transform the architectural thinking of the 21st century.


Jens Harzer:

An evening in commemoration of Frei Otto at the Museum Villa Stuck, Munich

An Evening for Frei Otto


June 11, 2015




»Munich, the friendly, cosmopolitan and art-loving city«. Three works of Frei Otto cement this reputation: The temporary construction of the altar isle at the Eucharistic World Congress 1960, the grand Voliere of Hellabrunn in its incomparable beauty, but before all the daring construction of the lightweight Olympic roof landscape. It is, indeed, far more than an icon of Architecture, it has become a face of the City of Munich.


Frei Otto passed away in March 2015. To pay tribute to this close bond, the City of Munich and Cherbuliez Productions had issued an invitation for an evening at the Museum Villa Stuck. As its host, Michael Buhrs bid welcome the Widow Ingrid Otto and members of the family and among the guests many friends, former associates and fellows of Frei Otto.

Hans-Jochen Vogel fascinated the audience. He was able to convey the spirit of the City of Munich characteristic for the Olympic Summer Games 1972. At the time Lord Mayor, he knows about the energy and joy flowing in the planning and realisation. This joy was literally palpable throughout the evening.

Fritz Auer who belongs to the group of architects of this big enterprise, developed once more the ideas and steps leading to the concept and to the final realisation.

Jens Harzer had come from the Thalia Theater to read texts from “Frei Otto – Finding Form”. Through his art, Frei Otto was present among the assembly.

Gert Pfafferodt recalled how heavy Frei Otto felt the burden of his responsibility as constructor and pointed at conflicts and liabilities. In his final statement he asked if it would not be worthy to remember the Olympic Summer Games 1972 as a model for a friendly, sportive and cultural celebration; if not the moment had come to add the Olympic Park to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, as it reflects the history of the Federal Republic of Germany and its efforts to be appreciated as a cosmopolitan and democratic community.


The Mayor of the City of Munich, Dieter Reiter, pays tribute to the lifework of Frei Otto in a letter of condolence to his widow Ingrid Otto:

„Mit Bestürzung habe ich vom Tod Ihres Ehemannes erfahren. Zu diesem schmerzlichen Verlust möchte ich Ihnen im Namen des Stadtrats der Landeshauptstadt München und vor allem persönlich mein herzliches Mitgefühl ausdrücken.


Frei Otto war einer der prägendsten Architekten, Ingenieure und Vordenker seiner Zeit: Sein Studium der Form und Funktion der Natur sowie deren Übertragung in die Technik dienen heute unter dem Oberbegriff Bionik der Problemlösung in den vielfältigsten wissenschaftlichen Bereichen. Lange bevor der Begriff der Nachhaltigkeit in unser gesellschaftliches Bewusstsein Einzug hielt, hatte er bereits die Notwendigkeit eines sparsamen und ressourcenschonenden Umgangs mit unserer Umwelt im Blick. Mit seinem Interesse am Experiment und dem Erforschen von bis dahin weithin unbekannten Bereichen der Baukunst hat er Pionierarbeit geleistet, deren Wirkung bis heute anhält.


Als Berater, Lehrer und Autor war Frei Otto prägend für mehr als eine Architektengeneration weltweit. Dem demokratischen Selbstverständnis der jungen Bundesrepublik Deutschland hat er mit seinen leichten und transparenten Bauten, ob für den Deutschen Pavillon auf der Expo 1967 in Montreal oder dem Olympiagelände in München 1972, einen architektonischen Ausdruck verschafft, der international Anerkennung fand.


Die Landeshauptstadt München hat Frei Otto mit den weltberühmten Zeltdachkonstruktionen des Olympiageländes sowie der Großvoliere im Tierpark Hellabrunn zwei ihrer herausragenden modernen Bauten zu verdanken. Die Leichtigkeit des Münchner Olympiadachs ist damit nicht nur zu einer Ikone der Weltarchitektur und zu einem Gesicht Münchens geworden. Für seine Verdienste ist Frei Otto mit dem Bundesverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse sowie mit dem Pritzker-Preis ausgezeichnet worden, der ihm noch zu Lebzeiten zuerkannt worden ist und nun leider nur posthum verliehen werden kann.


Sein vielleicht größter Verdienst für die Landeshauptstadt München besteht aber darin, mit seinen Olympiabauten auch und gerade dem Lebensgefühl einer Generation Ausdruck und Prägung verliehen zu haben, die zur Zeit der Münchner Olympischen Spiele und in den für die Stadtentwicklung so wichtigen Jahren davor und danach eine besondere Freiheit, Aufbruch und Freude empfunden hat. Ich wünsche Ihnen für die kommenden schweren Wochen viel Kraft und für die Zukunft auch Trost in dem Wissen, dass sein Andenken nie vergessen werden wird und sein Geist in seinen Werken weiterleben wird.“


By kind permission of the Mayor`s Office of the City of Munich.

Der gebürtige Schwabe Theodor Heuss wurde 1949 zum ersten Bundespräsidenten der jungen Bundesrepublik Deutschland gewählt. Die aktuelle Debatte über die Rolle des »ersten Mannes im Staate« gibt Anlass sich wieder mit Heuss, dem Vorkämpfer für Demokratie und seinem Ruf nach Menschlichkeit in der Politik zu befassen.


Der Schöngeist, der neben Nationalökonomie und Staatswissenschaften auch Literatur, Philosophie und Kunstgeschichte studierte, war aufgrund seines herzlichen, volksnahen Wesens und seinen oft humorvollen Reden ein beliebter Politiker. In die Kaiserzeit unter Otto von Bismarck hineingeboren, kommentierte er als politischer Redakteur der Neckar-Zeitung den ersten Weltkrieg, als Abgeordneter war er Mitgestalter der Weimarer Republik und im Dritten Reich erhielt er Rede- und Berufsverbot. Prägend für seine Amtszeit (1949–1959) waren unter anderem sein verantwortlicher Umgang mit dem Nationalsozialismus und die Forderung nach einer neuen demokratischen Staats- und Rechtsordnung. Heuss gilt als einer der geistigen Väter des Grundgesetzes und legte den Grundstein für die Aussöhnung mit dem Erzfeind Frankreich. Seine Staatsbesuche ins europäische und außereuropäische Ausland vermittelten schon bald das Bild eines neuen Deutschland. 1959 erhielt er als Anerkennung für seine Verdienste den Friedenspreis des deutschen Buchhandels.




Die vorliegende Doppel-CD enthält Reden sowie Briefe, datierend von 1902 – da war Heuss gerade mal 18 Jahre alt – bis 1962, ein Jahr vor seinem Tod.

Die Texte reichen vom »Entwurf einer Erklärung für die Reichstagssitzung zum Ermächtigungsgesetz« (23.3.1933) über Rundfunkansprachen, u.a. zur »Aufgabe und Pflichten der Parteien« (1945), seinen Reden vor dem Parlamentarischen Rat und nach der Wahl zum Bundespräsidenten (1949), Korrespondenzen mit politischen Weggefährten bis hin zu seiner beeindruckenden Gedenkrede (»Das Mahnmal«, 1952) im ehemaligen KZ Bergen-Belsen. Briefe an Freunde und seine Frau Elly ergänzen die Sammlung und geben einen weiteren Einblick in seine Persönlichkeit.










Der aus Karlsruhe stammende Schauspieler Sebastian Koch liest die Texte fein akzentuiert, mit authentisch-schwäbischem Dialektanklang. Seine Interpretation der unterschiedlichen Zeitdokumente ist atmosphärisch hervorragend gelungen und eine wahre Fundgrube für jeden Staatsbürger. Auch eignet sich das Hörbuch als ergänzendes Lehrmaterial für den Schulunterricht. Eine Heuss-Biographie von Angelika Holterman mit zahlreichen Verweisen auf die zeitlich entsprechenden Texte des Hörbuchs finden Sie als kostenlosen Download unter dem Stichwort Lehrerhandreichungen: Die enthalten darüber hinaus Anregungen für den Unterricht in allen Schularten.

»GRANSHAN«

Design and Identity

Conference and Festival on Non-Latin Typefaces

Bangkok, 24–27 July 2013

About
Cherbuliez Productions
Southeast Asia





 

 









 




A string of shops shields a narrow soi and its 120- year old wooden town houses from the bustle of the daily textile market and the characteristic swarming nightly fruit and vegetable market. In this back alley lies the Bangkok hideaway of Cherbuliez Productions.


To Cherbuliez Productions, routine jobs are as alien as rigid attitudes. The production company does not pursue one model. For each task a separate team is assembled, bringing together knowledge of ethos and aesthetics and implements the work within the terms of particular surroundings. In this way, neither the commitment to the task nor the warmth in the working atmosphere gets lost. Cherbuliez Productions considers itself a partner, not only able to solve prob- lems but to build bridges between cultures. Despite institutionalized rules, which have been fostering contacts between civilizations from time immemorial, again and again we experience the shock that we are forced to put ourselves in rapport with what is contrary to what we are made of, with something we cannot integrate into the flow of our concrete life experience.









Those in search of a dialogue between generations, religions and cultures, working with an interdisciplinary approach, wishing to understand the richness of finding form in the working process, willing to encounter “the foreign” in a concrete issue, in short, those who sense the grace of mankind, find in Cherbuliez Productions an escort: a scout, a tracker, a prospector, an alchemist, a pioneer, encountering a fact in its evolved consistency in such a way that the difference appears clearly, that opaqueness and obdurate surfaces become transparent. In a playful way and by a radical form of thinking, culture is challenged.


Thus in the very instance of GRANSHAN 2013 in Bangkok was it possible to establish the intermediation of a completely unfamiliar concept and a complex group of themes, even through months of a terrible natural disaster and in a year of great social change. This achievement will again strengthen the confidence placed by wide circles in Cherbuliez Productions.

German Premiere

Play: Nicholas Pierpan

German Version: Michael Sommer

Ulm Version: Gert Pfafferodt

Photography: Ilja Meß



The original title of the play „You Can Still Make A Killing” uses the ambiguity of „killing“: making a profit and hiring a killer. Ever since the outbreak of the financial crisis the whole world stares blankly at the world of finance. Since 2007 the circulation of government bonds has grown to 43 Billion $. In 2013 the GDP amounted to some 73 billion $. Thus the national liabilities represent 59 % oft he world GDP. Many, many people suffer from the brutal consequences. Politicians and media are helpless. And the theatre performs the crisis of the system, showing us all, bankers as well as audience ...

Cherbuliez Editions published a new book. It introduces the Munich design firm “design stauss grillmeier.” The book is more than a report of works spanning over a 16-year period. It presents work and thought processes of contemporary design as well as the multi- and interdisciplinary approach of the two partners, Prof. Kilian Stauss and Josef A. Grillmeier, in the field of communication design, consulting, research, exhibition design, interaction design, interior design, product design and signage design. The images are complemented with “yellow blocks” containing texts by the Munich author Tobias Glaser. The book advocates for a novel and transcending definition of design that does not orient itself merely to university divisions and disciplines.

World Premiere
Glenn Gould vs. Glenn Gould


A musical theatre performance


October 18 and 19, 2011, 8.00pm
Carl Orff Saal at the Gasteig, Munich




 




“I was never prepared to enjoy the presence of the Audience”. Glenn Gould is a legend, the “James Dean of classical music“. His tender youth, the early success and the rebellious aloofness make of him the “James Dean of classical music”. All the world wants to hear him. He is considered to be not only the talent but also the eccentric of the century. He dismisses Schubert, speaks condescendingly about Mozart, attacks Beethoven. And at age 25 he declares to give up playing concerts when reaching the age of 30. But this step marks the beginning of an unprecedented musical career. In the seclusion of the studio he devotes himself to his vision of music. To his audience he leaves a gigantic discography. In 2012 he would have celebrated his 80th birthday and at the same time it is the 30th anniversary of his death. Glenn Gould hides behind the legend.

Glenn Gould is a legend, the “James Dean of classical music“. He dismisses Schubert, speaks condescendingly about Mozart, attacks Beethoven, and at age 23 his recording of Bach’s “Goldberg Variations“ catapults him into international stardom. Seven years later, at the very peak of his fame, Gould decides to abandon the concert hall for good; a step marking the beginning of an unprecedented musical career. In 2012 Glenn Gould would have celebrated his 80th birthday but instead the world commemorates the 30th anniversary of his death. On this occasion director Gert Pfafferodt puts the ingenious and eccentric pianist on stage. And with his theatre performance “Glenn Gould vs. Glenn Gould” he is far from intending a biographical narration, rather he illuminates the various facets of the person Glenn Gould – “Variations on Glenn Gould”, so to speak. The performers and their directing team are thrilled about this evening which not only presents all the music live, but captivates “with ironic subtlety” and “a lot of humour”, according to the Süddeutsche Zeitung.

»What is man, that you think of him?”«
Already the biblical psalmist asked Yahwe, God, this question full of self-doubt. What is man? This question remains without an answer. The person who asks this question can only try to fathom it himself. »Gnothi seauton« was written on the column of the Apollo Temple in ancient Delphi. »Know thyself«. And one could add: know yourself through the other. Thomas Lüttge pursues exactly this in his work; he has been onto this secret throughout his artistic life. Without bias he looks at the world into which man is born. Thus he approaches and meets the traces of man, perceives him in certain situations, sees him always from the present moment. The photographer’s gaze is always open and true. Thomas Lüttge is not inhibited by preconceived conceptions. He doesn’t conceive an image of man; instead, he stays the one who is seeing, exploring, questioning while taking a photograph. One can follow these questions, this artistic path that sometimes is intricate and mazelike; for sure, it has never been planned, calculated or even pre-set. One can partake in his adventures of gazing, in his insights. Whether in Africa or Asia, in the US or in Europe: beyond all cultural idiosyncrasy, while looking at, immersing yourself with Thomas Lüttge, you get closer to the essence of man. No answers but inklings. For example, in regards to the question of reality. One questions time in the extended, present moments that Thomas Lüttge isolated from the flow of time. Or when looking at an image that turns into a theatrical stage. Inklings, too, since we encounter men in all their vulnerability, exposing their intimacy. Thomas Lüttge or rather his images leave room for the viewers to look at them without prejudices, as he does himself. Then we might find the moments in which we get closer to finding the answer to the question »What is man, that you think of him? «
(Wilhelm Warning)
