101. David Cohen On The Jewish Museum At 100
     Masterworks of the jewish Museum by Maurice Berger and Joan Rosenbaum, The jewish They build a jewish Museum, then ask, Is there a jewish Art? Jews!  
     http://www.artcritical.com/DavidCohen/SUN64.htm
     
     Extractions: "Is there a Jewish Art?" asked the critic Harold Rosenberg in a 1966 lecture of the same title at the Jewish Museum. "They build a Jewish Museum, then ask, Is there a Jewish Art? Jews!" The Museum in question, starting life as a room of judaica at the Jewish Theological Seminary in 1904 and now a thriving, beloved, often controversial institution in the former Warburg Mansion on Fifth Avenue's Museum Mile, celebrates its centenary this year with a sumptuous coffee-table tome of its highlights ("Masterworks of the Jewish Museum," Yale University Press, $60). The volume presents 120 examples from the museum's horde of 28,000 objects which include ceremonial judaica, artworks, and an extensive archive of film and TV. But Rosenberg's pugnacious quip from the 1960s is just as pertinent today, with the museum's provocative programming and self-questioning presentations. When it comes to Jewish culture, identity crisis isn't so much a characteristic as a precondition.

102. A Review Of The Jewish Museum Berlin
     Ausstellungsbesprechung in der Virtual Library Museen.  
     http://www.vl-museen.de/aus-rez/reid01-1.htm
     
     Extractions: University of Newcastle / UK E-Mail: susannahreid@hotmail.com This review will look at various aspects of the Jewish Museum Berlin, concentrating mainly on the interaction of the architecture with the museum’s functions and on the exhibitions. It covers visitor orientation, the exhibitions, exhibition design, museum fatigue and the museum’s other functions. The purpose of this review is to examine the degree of success or failure, which both the museum staff and the architect have achieved in these areas to create a modern museum for the public. 1. Introduction The Jewish Museum Berlin opened on September 9th 2001 amid controversial debate as to the suitability of Daniel Libeskind’s architecture for housing a museum. Originally intended as an extension of the existing Berlin Museum and its Jewish department, the project eventually picked up the momentum to become a Jewish Museum in its own right. As Ken Gorbey, Project Director says, “it’s a classical tale of the architectural tail wagging the political and museological dog” (K. Gorbey, pers. comm., 23.5.2001). Libeskind won the competition only months before the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, after which the project was delayed by a variety of political and financial difficulties.

     Extractions: Germany Online Home: Arts: Visual Arts: Museums: Jewish Museum Jewish Museum The Jüdisches Museum is the most visited museum in Germany at present. The zinc-panelled Libeskind building is an unusual structure. It sets new architectural standards by creating a close relationship between the museums themes and its architecture. The richly symbolic building visualizes German-Jewish history and appeals its visitors senses and feelings. The tragic history of deported and murdered Jews and emigrants becomes as substantial as the vitality of contemporary Jewish life in Germany. The permanent exhibition offers visitors a journey through German-Jewish history and culture, from its earliest testimonies, through the Middle Ages and up to the present. Jewish contributions to German culture, politics, economics and science and other similar topics are presented along with everyday life of regular Jewish citizens, the history of persecution and the vacuum that was left behind, as well as the survival and new beginning of Jewish life in Germany.
