Buchprojekt der Kunstgeschichte löst das Rätsel um ein Wandgemälde der Grazer Moderne

Am 11. Mai 2016 wurden im GrazMuseum neue Forschungsergebnisse in Form der interdisziplinären Publikation „Hilmteichstrasse 24. Haus Albrecher-Leskoschek von Herbert Eichholzer“ präsentiert. Das von Dr. Eva Klein vom Institut für Kunstgeschichte der Uni Graz initiierte Buchprojekt stellt eine Fortführung der bereits mit dem Theodor-Körner-Preis ausgezeichneten Entdeckung und Bearbeitung des Wandgemäldes „Allegorie der Freunde von Axl Leskoschek“ dar. Die kunsthistorische Analyse brachte brisante Bildinhalte mit politischen Bezügen in einer Zeit kurz vor dem „Anschluss“ an das nationalsozialistische Deutschland zum Vorschein.

Das Gemälde befindet sich in einem modernen Paradebau des Architekten Herbert Eichholzer in der Hilmteichstrasse 24, der als modernes Gesamtkunstwerk und Ort eines „befreiten Wohnens“ entworfen und mit Stahlrohrmöbeln und Stoffen von Josef Frank eingerichtet wurde . Das Haus war unter anderem auch ein Treffpunkt eines Kreises von Kulturschaffenden und Intellektuellen, die in Opposition zum Nationalsozialismus ihre Freiheit aufs Spiel setzten und – im Fall von Eichholzer – dafür mit ihrem Leben bezahlten.

Nach Umbauten und Renovierungen ist die ursprüngliche architektonische und künstlerische Gestalt des Hauses heute nicht mehr erkennbar. Vor dem bevorstehenden Abriss legt dieses Buch dessen architektur-, kunst- und zeithistorische Bedeutung frei.

They were to be brought up to become the future elite of National Socialism: boys and girls aged ten and over who, following the ‘Anschluss’ of Austria to the German Reich, attended a so-called Napola (short for Nationalpolitische Lehranstalt; also known as NPEA, Nationalpolitische Erziehungsanstalt). There were nine such institutions in what is now Austria between 1939 and 1945.

Baby health: University of Graz is seeking study participants to investigate early risk factors

Why does the body composition of babies vary so much? Some children gain a significant amount of fat mass within a few weeks, whilst others show hardly any change over the same period. “At the same time, initial observations suggest that fat distribution in all babies may follow a similar pattern, regardless of their total body fat,” explains Marco Höfler from the Institute of Movement Sciences, Sport and Health at the University of Graz. He is coordinating the research project ‘Small Bodies – Big Questions’, for which participants are currently still being sought: pregnant women and babies up to four weeks old.

In hot water: New Report reveals record losses in glaciers, permafrost and snow cover

Climate change is driving up temperatures not only in summer. Winters are also getting warmer – with dramatic consequences for glaciers, permafrost, snow cover and the freezing of lakes. The recently published cryosphere report provides specific figures for Austria. “Our monitoring shows a clear trend with record losses of ice and snow,” says project leader Wolfgang Schöner from the University of Graz.
