SUMMARY:Live Performances: Sergio Gomez and Joanna Pinsky with Beate Axmann
DESCRIPTION:Live Performances will take place in the DANK Treffpunkt (1st floor gallery)\, where guests are encouraged to watch at any time during the session. Performances begin at 5:00pm and go until the artists are done painting (about 2 hours).\n\nPerformance dates:\n\nWednesday\, May 4 – Sergio Gomez with Beate Axmann\n\n5-7 PM\n\n\nTuesday\, May 17 – Joanna Pinsky with Beate Axmann\n\n5-7 PM\n\n\n\nAbout the performances:\nBeate Axmann has invited two Chicago-based artists to collaborate with her on this dynamic exhibition. Each artist will begin with their own large canvas. During this performance\, there will be several exchanges of the two canvases – meaning that each artist will add to the other artist’s work! This encounter will make visible the meaning of creative intervention\, trust and respect between the artists\, and the differences in their artistic expression.\n\nSpectators will have the unique opportunity to experience a very special art encounter – certainly not one that you see every day.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Sichtverrückt.Lost and Found
DESCRIPTION:German artist Beate Axmann’s concept “Sicht.Verrückt” translates roughly to gaze\, shifted. It is a directive to look not once\, not twice\, but thrice\, even four times. In today’s atmosphere of rising extremism and polemics (in Germany and abroad)\, it is critical to shift one’s gaze––to look at issues from multiple angles. Sichtverrückt is the overarching theme that Beate Axmann has used for the whole of her artistic work since 2018.\n \nAxmann is from the Black Forest region of Germany and works in acrylic paint on canvas\, paper\, and wood as well as ink on paper. Her subjects include people (especially women)\, nature\, the Black Forest\, and the continuum of human cultures that she greets on her travels. Collaboration and cooperation with others are centrally important to Axmann. \nAxmann’s show will run through May 20\, and will include public programs such as: \n\nPanel discussion with Joanna Pinsky of Art Encounter\n2 live performances in which Axmann will create collaborative paintings with Joanna Pinsky and Sergio Gomez\nAll-ages art workshops (which Axmann will lead\, speaking German!) in which you will create 1 or 2 experimental collages\n\nContinue to check dankhaus.com/art and our Facebook events for event details.

DESCRIPTION:The Pretzel Blitz is back! \n\n\nWe are hosting 5 pretzel making classes in April. Why? We LOVE pretzels! These pretzel-making classes will be offered in-person. We will host up to 20 students in our industrial kitchen at the DANK Haus. These 20 students will get hands on training from Reinhard Richter\, our resident Pretzel Meister\, and take home their homemade pretzels at the end of the class. \n\nWe have 5 classes to choose from. The April 29th class will be taught entirely in German (auf Deutsch)! All students will get the recipe and be able to communicate directly with our chef.

SUMMARY:Schubert\, America\, and the Police
DESCRIPTION:DANK Haus German American Cultural Center\nPresentation and musical performance by Pauline Tan (mezzo-soprano) and Pierre-Nicolas Colombat (pianist) \nWhile many of classical music’s most revered performers\, ensembles\, and institutions are American\, the vast majority of “household names” in classical music are European. The result can feel like Americans are stuck in a never ending game of catch-up. This Eurocentric attitude ignores the deep influence that America had on some of Europe’s most significant figures. \nOne American in particular\, James Fenimore Cooper\, emerges as a uniting thread between individuals as diverse as Franz Schubert\, the Marquis de Lafayette\, and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Cooper’s novels enjoyed a massive readership in Europe at a time in which it was undergoing widespread conservative reforms. These books\, which typically depict a collection of diverse characters in times of tumultuous upheaval\, such as in the Leather Stocking Tales trilogy\, proved to be an effective antidote to the Europamüdigkeit (Europe-weariness)afflicting European intellectual life. \nOn his deathbed and in the midst of revising drafts of Winterreise\, Schubert asked for a copy of this American writer’s latest book. Goethe kept notes in his diary of the long list of Cooper’s books he had read. As a testament to the power of the author’s oeuvre as propaganda\, Lafayette invited Cooper to live with him at his estate for several weeks in the hopes that he might feature as a cameo in the writer’s next novel. \nThe American influence was not limited to those who knew Cooper’s novels. Nikolaus Lenau\, one of Schumann’s favored poets\, went so far as to purchase a farm in Ohio and toured modern day New York state extensively. Although his American journey turned out to be a catastrophe\, the Austrian poet had long maintained that witnessing the American wilderness as well as its political project first hand would help him develop his poetic aesthetic. \nThis program features the standard German Romantic tropes of the Wanderer\, the wilderness\, Sehnsucht and Einsamkeit. Centered on the music of Franz Schubert and Robert Schumann as well as the poetry of Nikolaus Lenau and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe\, our selections will highlight the under-appreciated ways in which American audiences and performers can find agency in the context of typically Germanic Romantic repertoire. While the myth of America as the land of burgeoning opportunity rightfully incites the cries of many cynics\, this narrative nevertheless had deep and impactful reverberations in early 19th-century aesthetic movements. Given the contemporary cultural and political conversation over what America might become\, classical music may have more to contribute to these themes than one might think. \nThis event will take place in-person at the DANK Haus\, on the 5th floor\, Sat\, Feb 19 at 6pm.\nRegister here: www.dankhaus.com/events
