DIE STADT OHNE JUDEN – The City Without Jews

Film

Thought to be lost, a print of the film was discovered at a Parisian flea market in 2015 and digitally restored through a crowdfunding campaign. The Vienna Conzerthaus then commissioned a new score from composer Olga Neuwirth, which will be performed live by the Present Music ensemble, conducted by Yaniv Dinur. There will also feature an interpretation of the Woody Guthrie/Lisa Gutkin song Gonna Get Through This World arranged for Present Music by Israeli Composer Aviya Kopelman and sung by Donna Woodall. The performance is in conjunction with the exhibit “Art, Life, Legacy: Northern European Paintings from the Collection of Isabel and Alfred Bader”. In-person PM performance ticket holders also receive access to the Milwaukee Art Museum galleries the day of the performance. This event includes a Pre-concert Panel Discussion at 6 pm in Lunar Auditorium and a post-concert reception in Windhover Hall at MAM.

In partnership with the Nathan and Esther Pelz Holocaust Education Resource Center (HERC), Bader Philanthropies, Inc. University of Milwaukee History Department, The Sam and Helen Stahl Center for Jewish Studies, The Harry and Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center, Jewish Museum Milwaukee, Milwaukee Art Museum, Milwaukee Public Library, Saint John’s on the Lake, and Warehouse Art Museum.

This program is aligned with the Milwaukee Art Museum exhibit “Art, Life, Legacy: Northern European Paintings in the Collection of Isabel and Alfred Bader”.
