GRRLT. Abseits der Norm
No full textDer Wissenschaftler Ernst Friedrich Gurlt sammelte im 19. Jahrhundert Präparate von fehlgebildeten Tieren für seine Forschung. 248 Präparate haben die Zeit überdauert und werden heute am Institut für Veterinär-Anatomie der Freien Universität Berlin in Dahlem
bewahrt. Die Ausstellung GRRLT. Abseits der Norm präsentiert diese Gurltsche Sammlung in einer angewandten Sammlungsgeschichte im Tieranatomischen Theater – an eben jenem Ort, an dem Gurlt in den 1820er Jahren seine Lehr- und Sammlungstätigkeit begonnen hatte.
In der Ausstellung steht nicht die Biografie des Forschers im Fokus, sondern die Geschichten der Objekte und des Wissens. Die Dokumentation der Ausstellung wird ergänzt um Texte von Sarah K. Becker, Jochen Hennig, Johanna Plendl, Felix Sattler, Alina Strmljan und Mona Wischhoff sowie von Illustrationen von Sarah K. Becker und Rosanna Wischhoff.

Mona Simpson: Q&A with the Bestselling Novelist and Professor of English
No full textMona Simpson writes novels. Her 1987 debut, Anywhere But Here, follows Adele and Ann August, a mother and daughter who move from the Midwest to Los Angeles in search of a less ordinary life. The novel went on to be a national bestseller, winning the Whiting Award in 1986, catapulting the author into the literary spotlight. Simpson followed her first novel’s success with a sequel: The Lost Father, published in 1992. Four years later, Simpson returned with A Regular Guy (1996). That same year Granta named Simpson one of America’s Best Young Novelists. In 2000, Simpson published Off Keck Road, a novel about a small town spinster, a man who has always been in her life, and a young girl, who completes the odd triangle. This work was a finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award. Her upcoming novel, My Hollywood (Knopf, Spring 2010), depicts the upstairs/downstairs ironies, enmities, and strange affections between a community of immigrant nannies and their employers in contemporary Los Angeles. Presently, Simpson has begun a story about the lives and loves of Diaspora Arabs in Europe, the Gulf, and the United States, and of their more assimilated, half-American cousins. Simpson is also a Professor in the Department of English and plays an active part in organizing the Friends of English and Hammer Museum’s popular “Some Favorite Writers” series. On a recent summer afternoon, I sat down in a Brentwood coffee shop with Simpson to talk about her work and, in particular, The American Cousins
