| Sa 04.06.22 | Exclusive guided tour: “Renoir Rococo Revival – Impressionism and the French Art of the Eighteenth Century” at the Städel Museum in Frankfurt Beschreibung »Dear Alumni, dear Friends, The first highlight at Frankfurt’s Städel in 2022 is devoted to the master of Impressionism and his passion for the Rococo – Pierrre-Auguste Renoir. The exhibition “Renoir Rococo Revival – Impressionism and the French Art of the Eighteenth Century” will show a total of some 120 outstanding paintings, works on paper and handcrafted objects from international museums as well as private collections. Pierre-Auguste Renoir is one of the outstanding painters of French Impressionism – and far more than that. For the first time the Städel Museum will be addressing the surprising references in his art to Rococo painting in a large-scale special exhibition. Whereas Rococo painting was considered frivolous and immoral after the French Revolution, it underwent a revival in the nineteenth century and was widely visible in Renoir’s lifetime. Trenchant juxtapositions of Renoir’s art with works of the eighteenth century as well as his own contemporaries – Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet, Claude Monet and Berthe Morisot – will provide an overview of Impressionism’s intense artistic examination of the Rococo. We cordially invite you to a guided tour exploring the “Renoir Rococo Revival – Impressionism and the French Art of the Eighteenth Century” at the Städel Museum in Frankfurt on Saturday, 4 June 2022 at 2:45 pm. We will meet at the Foyer of the Städel Museum at Schaumainkai 63, 60596 Frankfurt am Main (website) at 2:15 pm, 30 min ahead of the tour to allow time for cloakroom and distribution of entrance tickets, so that we can start the tour on time. Please keep in mind that it is the last weekend of the exhibition and thus the museum will be very crowded. Please register by Thursday, 2 June by completing the online registration form. We encourage you to sign-up early, as we allocate places on a first-come, first-served basis. The guided tour is free of charge for members of the German Friends of LSE. The participation fee for non-members is €10, which we ask you to transfer to our bank account DE57300700240612018200, reference: Renoir Städel Museum 2022. Alternatively, you can also pay by Paypal to paypal.me/GermanFriendsofLSE. Please state your name and Renoir Städel Museum 2022 as reference. We are looking forward to seeing you in Frankfurt.

| Mo 12.12.22 | Munich: U.S. - China relations in light of the Ukraine war Beschreibung »An evening with Elihu Professor of History and Global Affairs at Yale and bestselling author Arne Westad
Moderated by Ambassador Eric Nelson, Associate Director, George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies
The Russian aggression against Ukraine began at a time when global tension was already running high.
What will the effects of the war be on relations between the United States and China, a relationship deemed by many to be key to future peace and stability? Will the Chinese leadership continue its de facto backing of Russia? And will Russia’s leaders accept a subservient relationship to China as a price they have to pay for the war?
Professor Westad will discuss these issues in light of lessons from history.
Odd Arne Westad is Elihu Professor of History and Global Affairs at Yale University and the author of The Cold War: A World History. Originally from Ålesund on the Norwegian coast, he studied history, philosophy, and modern languages in Oslo before doing a graduate degree in U.S./international history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Westad has published 16 books, most of which deal with 20th century Asian and global history. He joined the faculty at Yale after teaching at the London School of Economics (LSE), where he was School Professor of International History, and at Harvard University, where he was the S.T. Lee Professor of U.S.-Asia Relations. At Yale, he teaches in the History Department and at the Jackson School for Global Affairs. Westad is a fellow of the British Academy and of several other national academies, a visiting professor at Peking University, and a research associate of the Harvard Fairbank Center.
Moderation: Ambassador Eric Nelson, Associate Director of the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
