SUMMARY:Transatlantic Exhibition of Art in the South East
DESCRIPTION:TEASE is back! \nThey are pleased to announce that once again we are supporting this intercultural art project following it’s success in 2014. Two years ago\, as part of the TEASE: Transatlantic Exhibition of Art in the South East project\, they welcomed five fascinating German artists\, this year another group of American and German artists are going to explore the Southern states of America. \nFirst stop will be Atlanta\, GA\, on Friday\, September 30\, 2016 where TEASE artists Regine Bechtler\, Jochen Pankrath\, Jane Allen Nodine\, and Kati von Schwerin will exhibit their work. Alongside them\, they are delighted to welcome Atlanta artist Eric Mack who will also exhibit a selection of his paintings. \nEric Mack is an outstanding painter. He enjoys values such as rigidity which many claim as a stereotype for Germany\, where he lived and worked for four years. His work is lively\, modern and international. Living abroad made the boy from the South to become a worldly man. \nThey are honored that Mr. Mack will be representing Atlanta’s art scene at this event. \nAnother highlight of this year’s exhibition will be a musical program that was written by Kati von Schwerin and will be performed by Gregor McEwan . \nNext stop after Atlanta will be Spartanburg\, SC\, on October 1. Following that\, the four artists will travel to Charlotte\, NC where they will exhibit their artwork October 3. Last stop of this year’s TEASE tour will be Raleigh\, NC\, October 5.

SUMMARY:A Note on Opera: Jules Massenet's "Werther"
DESCRIPTION:Join the Goethe-Zentrum for our latest lecture in our “A Note on Opera” series as we look at Jules Massenet’s “Werther.“\nNot only has Goethe’s “Faust” inspired different opera adaptations\, but so have many of his other works. His intensely Romantic novel Die Leiden des jungen Werthers [The Sorrows of young Werther] is the basis for this opera by French composer Jules Massenet. Not only is “Werther” considered Massenet’s masterpiece\, it also is quite faithful to Goethe’s novel. It’s an intimate work with the tragedy of unrequited love leading to suicide played out in a world unaware and uncaring. \nCourse to be taught in English by David Kerr. No pre-existing knowledge of music required.

SUMMARY:Telenovelas\, a Looking Glass into Media\, Culture\, and Society in the Americas
DESCRIPTION:There are stories that are addictive. In particular\, there are some that constitute a pandemic transmitted daily via the television screens of more than 130 countries. These serialized dramas are called telenovelas. The simplicity of their codes belies the complexity of their production\, consumption and regulation\, and their potential to convey information and elicit reflection in their audiences. Furthermore\, the engagement of these melodramas with reality\, makes them ideal sites to study the links between media\, culture and society. \nDr. Carolina Acosta-Alzuru is Associate Professor in the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Georgia. Her scholarship focuses on the links between media\, culture and society\, and bridges the disciplines of cultural studies and international media studies as she examines media texts\, their production and reception. She is the author of the books Venezuela es una Telenovela (2007)\, La Incandescencia de las Cosas: Conversaciones con Leonardo Padrón (2013) and Telenovela Adentro (2015). Carolina encompasses wisdom\, knowledge and sensibility not only about her subject but also of Latin American societies\, in particular her native Venezuela\, and she will be casting light on how the telenovela genre and society mirror and reveal one another. Please join us in this enriching and delightful talk! \nLight refreshments will be served. Please plan on arriving by 6:15 pm for networking and refreshments!\nParking: \nParking deck underneath our building is accessible from 14th\, 15th and Peachtree Streets. Please park on RED or GOLD levels in the Colony Square parking garage below the building and bring parking ticket for validation at the Cultural Centers.

SUMMARY:Mao Badges in the Billions: Uncommon Perspectives on the Early Chinese Cultural Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Professor Douglas Reynolds of Georgia State University’s History Department will discuss his collection of some 20\,000 Mao badges which he acquired in 1994-95 when he was in Beijing. After their ten-year residence in his basement\, Professor Reynolds began to sort and organize his “hoard.” His talk for the forum will tell the story of the badges and present the unexpected findings that resulted from his study. This topic is particularly appropriate because 2016 is the 50th anniversary of the beginning of China’s Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution.
