Summary:

"Dieses Notizbuch kombiniert Fotografien der palästinensischen Künstlerin Emily Jacir mit einem Text, den die an der City University of New York lehrende politische Philosophin Susan Buck-Morss in Reaktion auf diese Bilder und auf Gespräche mit der Künstlerin verfasst hat. Jacirs Fotografien zeigen das ehemalige Benediktinerkloster Breitenau, nahe Kassel, das während der NS-Zeit als Lager genutzt wurde und nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg als Besserungsanstalt für schwererziehbare Mädchen diente. Diese Fotos, durch weitere Aufnahmen aus Kassel ergänzt, werden von handschriftlichen Tagebuchnotizen der Künstlerin begleitet, die Fragen bezüglich der Geschichte der Orte aufwerfen. Buck-Morss beleuchtet in ihrem Text, ausgehend von Walter Benjamins Auslegungen von Paul Klees Angelus Novus, die Konstituierung von Wahrheit und des kollektiven Gedächtnisses sowie die folgenreiche Beziehung zwischen Wissen und Macht, die zur Selektion von Archiviertem und Erinnerung führt."
"This notebook combines photographs by Palestinian artist Emily Jacir with a text by political philosopher Susan Buck-Morss, who teaches at the City University of New York, written in response to the images and to conversations with the artist. Jacir's photographs depict the former Benedictine monastery of Breitenau, near Kassel. A prison camp in the Nazi era, it became a girl's reformatory after World War II. These images as well as other photographs taken in Kassel are accompanied by selections from the artist's diary entries, which investigate questions around the histories of the represented sites. Recalling Walter Benjamin's reading of Paul Klee's Angelus Novus, Buck-Morss' textual response unravels how truth and collective memory are established and how the inextricable relation between knowledge and power leads to the selection of what is archived and remembered."
