Is it that i guarantee of his tragedy effects every pass and who stands . The european values, space, Democratic Values and humanistic values. Stay with when culture meets politics, tensions can arise. We visit the artist at mohammed dublin in egypt, who in spite of government repressions rooms, the caricature museum, and we examined the rolled images played at the 972. 00 munich olympics when a terrorist attack shot the world. But 1st, we meet the ukrainian conductor oscar what it means to make art during war. Ah, ah, one of ukraines most famous musicians is back in germany. Oksana linear is in firewood just one year after she became the 1st female conductor to perform here at the esteemed Classical Music festival. That the world has since changed. That this is really a tragedy. And i think this tragedy affects everyone, not only People Living in ukraine, but every person who stands for european values, Democratic Values, and humanistic values that the democrat dish about the whole money. Does she have out there . State my neck are my entire family is in ukraine. Of course, it affects me to have a better off. I worry about my family every day organ or mine, the anger heard again. Russias war of aggression weighs heavily underneath here and by roach to supposed to concentrate on her art. While back at home, bombs are falling and people are dying. There, sir, but thieves all. This also affects us as artists very strongly anymore because at some point she begin to have doubts about art and even humanistic values there and, and whom i need additional help to that. But let me keeps on despite these doubts, and she points for her beloved homeland in her own way. Like shortly after the russian invasion, at a solidarity concert for ukraine in berlin, you ah, at the beginning of 2022. The name became the chief conductor. Bolona, shes the 1st woman to head, the italian opera house. There. Her orchestra plays music by ukrainian composer. You reship jenko. Its one of the many concerts for ukraine she is conducted since the war began. Ah, this is emma, and i says emotionally, its extremely difficult until you look for an explanation it. But for me its been helpful to remind myself that they were all. So was an revolutions in the 18th and 19th century. Oh, 9th and the yahoo and the goddess could he go on the w 2 on and yet i but they were also all of these great composers who are still relevant to us to day relevancy and, and who had the idea of saving people. Yeah, it day of saving humanity height. Read them, gap tottenham, something. Asana you need managed to save was her passion project. The ukrainian Youth Orchestra, founded by her in 2016. Its my dog and hobbies done in 2 days. Id organized a zoom called with the Youth Orchestra foster, at least it was terrible to see how my musicians i had these wonderful young, talented people who weve gathered from all over ukraine into one orchestra. To see these people have always looked me straight in the eyes when playing music, now exposed to this brutality mahony directly now. And in some cases in life threatening situations is brutally that yet the advise of it lay bins. But broad. Eh, does his own qualifies. This soon call was a shock for me and talked somewhat calling from bankers or basements, mind you out of some said that they couldnt unpack their violin yet. Have been monday, because maybe they wouldnt have the 5 minutes to pack it away. Again, like that, i dont either because every 10 minutes there are sirens and rocky to docs in milton gib, sir said n on the katanen. Oh, luckily, most of the Youth Orchestra musicians were able to leave the country and continue to receive lessons beneath, also toured with them in europe. One emotional highlight was playing maria city by salton mossey from key iv dedicated to the tim since the bombing a scenario. Casita sled stick on sat in virginia, read my last concept in bolona. I performed beethovens 9th symphony at should. It was unsettling to reread, shall, as larry exact, where it says it, all people become brothers alba, amend. At the end, it says that the shouldnt be tyrants or executioners on hank again against tyrants and dictators like great artists of the past asana linny will not give up for 1972 munich olympics. Were supposed to be the happy games, but the terrorist attack on the israeli team turned them into a tragedy, captured and broadcast. But the press, what role did the Media Coverage play . Less than 30 years after the end of the nazi era. The 1972 olympics and munich was supposed to be an opportunity for the young federal republic of germany to present itself as a modern open and cosmopolitan democracy. Germans wanted to show that the nation responsible for the holocaust had changed for the better law. Dempsey william anger for people in germany were so looking forward to getting some recognition from the world, they hoped they were really gratified, enthusiastic and proud of that good. Oh, the design of the 1972 games was a clear departure from the marshall look of the last olympics. Germany had hosted in 1936 when soldiers had marched for and saluted hitler, witless favorite director. Lenny reference style delivered the desired aesthetics complete with steely strong bodies and heroic poses the 1972 games and to show that was history. The country was proud to welcome thousands of athletes from a 121. Countries in the specially built olympia pock poor. These are the architecture was meant to symbolize that, especially as it offers a striking contrast to balance Olympic Stadium. Bank billings, 1936 Olympic Stadium was an imposing edifice that embodied the knots his make la mania. This is its airy counterpart built for the 1972 games that battling the stadium. Immunity was even described as a modern 10th rift, and as a 10th for a 2nd, that might only be in town for a short time before leaving the city again. I thought it was supposed to symbolize lightness and transience. Goods vanish tied them bullies yet the roof appears to float weightlessness over the top. Its transparent and elegant design reflected the game spirit as wendy and tom, if you think of the brightly colored seeds and even the flags in green and blue, the whole visual conception of the Olympic Games via that will. Id say this design really captures the image they wanted to present. I las vegas, beth admitted, ah, im visionary, logo papa posters. And plenty of personal tones that stood in stock contrast to the knots, his color schemes. The design of the pictograms was cutting edge. And there was the cute little mascot, but excellent cloudy. The uniforms of the limbic hostesses were from the same color palate, including a modern joyful blue, shallow took no drops daughter, a young Jewish High School graduate, worked as a hostess. The other of these it, she got this beautiful light blue suit on the young ladys duties involved looking after the guess its, its a claim and it was a very nice job. And she got to know a lot of people that she was very happy with. Well, for the young people, it was great, a kind of journey out into the world and developed and the world was watching. Never had so many reporters flocked to a sporting event. Its spectacular days were meant to be seen by every one. The world was invited to munich and ready to accept germany again including israel, even athletes whose families were victims of the holocaust made their way to munich. For the israeli team, it was a, it was a hugely symbolic gesture just to go. And i think it was maybe one of the 1st times that a, that a sizable israeli sporting contingent had gone to germany to complete and so on. I think that i think, i think, you know, the germans were very aware of that. Ive symbolically important this was and he is, had a alicia father to see an israeli flag over the Olympic Stadium in munich after such a relatively short time really was the sensation shown on it and everything was working and the thought, the elephant. And yet it was thought restrictive security plan might dampen this euphoria and nothing was supposed to recall german militarism and the police stain. No one wanted to hear the experts, warnings, although there was evidence of possible attacks. And so on september 5th, palestinian terrorists were able to enter the Olympic Village unhindered. The terror group of the black september held 11 members if the israeli team hosted in their own rooms and shot 2 of them for the assailants principal demand, the release of more than 200. 00 palestinians, most of whom were imprisoned in israel negotiations with the German Government went no way as the terrorist attempted to fly away with the hostages. The situation escalated into a fierce firefight. When it was over 5 palestinian terrorists were dead. But so were the 11 israeli athletes. The german policeman. At the memorial service, Avery Brundage president of the International Olympic committee stated the game, but blue. It was a highly controversial decision. In the end, it was a refusal to bow to terrorism and to defense at the olympic ideal as the world looked on. Because a 1000000000 view, as in 98 countries were watching blythe, it was an unprecedented media spectacle. And as if to nicholas meetings with, i me thats wild, lindsey from william it was the start of a new era of multi media. They found that back in the 19 seventys sales of t. V has got a huge boost due to be olympics, as you can really see how the sporting events increase sales of quality bees, especially guided us pop, found in of a 4000 reporters were on site nearly twice as many as in mexico, 4 years before. And they reported live to a world audience morning, noon and night, that set an ideal stage for the attackers, allowing them to forcibly redirect the global spotlight onto the middle east conflict. Like an attack. After the attack, a ton of black septembers members said, attacking the vatican or the white house wouldnt have given us the same Media Attention as the Olympic Games did. Because the press was already on site. When they were already there, i live. Im from around the world Divine National life stopped by an International Audience was already gathered in front of that t vs. And i was watching that on the terrorists and take advantage of that time and found the f as im it is. And thats what the games will well underway when the 1st reports of the crisis in the Olympic Village came trickling out. No one knew what to make of the situation. Neither the organizes nor the reporters. From todays perspective, thats really hard to imagine. The games were carrying on in the stadium at the same time as there was this hostage crisis, just hundreds of meters away. There was a dead athlete lying in the, in one of the apartments there immediately a few 100 yards from that, from, from where the games were continue. They had never been a scenario. Anything like it in the history of life reporting broadcast is around the world, switched back and forth between the Sports Events and the hostage crisis. Journalist scramble to secure the best spot. But reliable information was still hot to come by. Charlotte oconnell block found after the media that as a hostess on the olympic side, her daughter could be in danger, to se later on today. She was already gone. When i heard on the radio, how there had been an attack, and they couldnt report any more details on it. Mechanically it is finished. I cried because that news didnt give you the slightest idea what was going on. I and they didnt know of it is Something Else coming. Whats going to happen . Uh huh. It wasnt until the evening that the cold came shallow. His daughter was safe, but for the relatives of these riley athletes, the nightmare continued. Most of the journalists were sports reporters, entirely overwhelmed. They provided running commentary on the events following every step, even the positions of the snipers. We see the footage of the police on the rooftops going closer to the address like athlete said, case theyre seen there. You are just look at their athletes on the roof. Why they would be out on the roof. I dont know. But then at a certain point, we realize that the palestinians could see them on television. And that the germans have forgotten to tell the television stations to stop filming, as asked who the terrorists had found out that side as were getting in position 3 press coverage and reacted to that information happened. Thats when it dawned on everyone. Okay, we have to do something, we cant just sit back and keep rolling our cameras and basically give the terrorists the heads up. Yet the journalist remained on the scene of the 1st live act of terrorism to be broadcast around the world. Even as a hostage situation progressed into a nearby military, airport members of the media swarmed the area, making it difficult for the special task force to get through. This too took place before rolling cameras around midnight. A government spokesman wrongly announced that all the terrorists were dead, and all hostages had been rescued. His source, a false report from an International News agency, a mistake that hasnt been explained to this day. 3 hours later, the terrible truth emerges. All 11 israeli hostages had been killed. The massacre left the world stunned, bringing shame and embarrassment to the German Authorities involved. So many people ended up dead largely because of the bad handling of it by the German Authorities. This was the tick the lead. Tragic because it was in front of the world. You know, the whole world was we was watching this war was holding their breath. Ah. The trauma of munich still echoes through the collective consciousness. 50 he is on the scars remain. The he is asthma like that. A very brundage quote on the games must go on, be that there is such an images that dominate our collective memory of that event along. And those are a product of the media does not the media like this image, a photo of a terrorist on the balcony than they its, he does that. Ill alice good. If you look at the hollowed out eyes and the very Straight Lines either is and that those evoke feelings of deaf orders for drama and fear. Im eda, a fact even now they reflect the feelings people associate with the attack. It isnt at intact for bonham. So make it Kevin Mcdonald felt the tragedy of september. The 5th had all the elements of a thriller. His Academy Award winning documentary is compiled entirely from Archive Footage. I wonder if you could make a documentary using all real material, real people that actually also operated like a thriller but told a story like a thriller. Were finding so much Archive Footage everywhere in the world. India, japan. I think in the film to Something Like 50 countries, huskerson during his meticulous research, mcdonald found countless inconsistencies, cold his documentary raised some uneasy questions with Decision Makers in germany, and i then refer brendan dunn as are the minister. I think i have to go to look for what the producers do. And then i went to the captain of the police, a company there and said, do something that didnt do anything. I have not of the film shows the disastrous entanglement between german politics and mass media at the time germany trying to show the world that its changed that, you know, you can have a totally pacifists peaceful games where even the, the Police Officers were dressed in these blue hurry, he kind of welcoming new uniforms, so they didnt look militaristic. And then this event happens and everyone phrases like a, like a rabbit, caught in the headlights because its the worst possible thing that can happen. A tragedy inadvertently facilitated by germanys desire to show the world. It was a democratic and rehabilitated country. From munich, we go to cairo where we meet an artist who finds inspiration out of the streets who doesnt shy away from being political. And it was just awarded to the good to metal kyra, a make a city built from concrete and the dreams of 20000000 people. Mohammed of le chronicles life here on paper and canvas. His portraits of people from ordinary residence to the powerful are depicted with affection and humor. They have a complexity like it find in a graphic, novel organ. Then even though it okay, as stories are very important and my work fact stories are essentially what my arts about tele medicine. What motivates me to paint my own fan that will knock a sentence or metaphor horror, a joke. Theres always a story behind robin whittaker. Mohammed avalon knows the city light the back of his hand. In his studio in downtown cairo, he feels its pulse. He observes the way people move about their lives in 2011 when the masses talked to the streets for pro democracy protest during the spring. Ablow was there to demonstrations, converged a tally of square documentary by uplift from a boots i perspective. He depicted the hope of the people as a hidden object, peach again, and then im going to pin i was on time here, square on i painted there. It will the 2 pictures on display here, or from 2007 before the revolution and from 2011 been been in the house for me. The revolution was not a surprise, nor was the fact that talk here, square became the central setting. I was able to predict have been like a prophecy. Punch aggregate either a mac one schafer abnormal, but not far from tufty a square in of boston street. The good to institute is a key making place for artists for subaru. My in the Institutes Library has always been Important Pillar of her artistic education. Shes a former student of mohammed abdulla, and often stopped by for decades. The good to institute in cairo has been a place where art had space to breathe, especially in restrictive times like things.
