It follows the transnational trajectories of several remarkable Jewish avant-garde artists, actors, and directors based in Bucharest, the country's capital, in the 1920s and 1930s. The first part of the book recovers the history of Bucharest's first modern design institution and investigates its links with German design and the Bauhaus. The second half focuses on several innovative collaborations in the realm of Yiddish theatre, including the time spent in Romania by the world-renowned Vilna Troupe. Based on extensive original research, the book shows how Bucharest was connected to Berlin, Riga, and Chicago, highlighting the contribution of Jewish cultural production to avant-garde movements in Europe and beyond. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 221-231). 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Modernism (Art) $z Bucharest $z Bucharest $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Performance art $z Bucharest $z Bucharest $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Theater $z Bucharest $z Bucharest $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Theater $x Judaism. $x Judaism. 650 0 $a Jewish theater $z Bucharest $z Bucharest $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Modernism (Art) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01024442 650 7 $a Performance art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01057852 650 7 $a Theater. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01149217 650 7 $a Theater $x Judaism. $x Judaism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02019262 651 7 $a Romania $z Bucharest. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204510 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117020225.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=80C70B68DDAE11EDB031D5162DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
