  • Art Matters: SURREALISM

    10:10 am
    12/01/2017

    http://southgateatshrewsbury.com/event/art-matters-surrealism/

    What is real? What is a dream, a nightmare, a fantasy? Many artists make visual what many can only imagine. The Surrealists view of the world was sometimes dark, curious, and even frightening, exploring the subconscious and the irrational. But also they reveal curiosity, much humor, and the poetic hint of possibility. Touch your inner eye and brave the world of the Surrealists, if you dare.

    The Strassler Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Clark University is the first and only institute of its kind. It is home to a uniquely rich undergraduate program and a landmark doctoral program. Since it was established in 1998, it has gained international standing as the sole program to train students for Ph.D. degrees in Holocaust and Genocide Studies. Our speaker for our December 13 Women’s Circle Breakfast is Dr. Rebecca Carter-Chand, Visiting Assistant Professor at the Strassler Center for the 2017-18 academic year. Her topic is “Christianity on the Margins: Minority Churches in Nazi Germany.” The rise of Nazism in Germany raised profound ethical questions for people of all faiths. The vast majority of Germans belonged to either the main Protestant Church or the Roman Catholic Church. Less than 1 percent was Jewish, and around the same number of people belonged to an array of other Christian denominations and sects. This talk will explore these minority churches and how they responded to the rise of Hitler and how they adjusted to life under National Socialism.

    Gary continues his series with John Foster Dulles. As President Eisenhower’s Secretary of State, Foster Dulles’ overriding foreign policy objective was to halt the spread of “aetheistic Communism”. As a devout Presbyterian, there was no room for neutrality in the Cold War. For western policymakers, it was now a moral question of choosing good over evil. “Better Dead than Red” was the watchword. Dulles threatened both the Soviet Union and Red China with “massive retaliation” if they broke the peace. He hoped to achieve a Pax Americana for the world. By the end of Dulles’ stewardship at the State Department, the United States was committed to eight security treaties and the defense of forty-two nations.
