El Lissitzky's Kabinett der Abstrakten (Abstract Cabinet)
In museums in Hanover and later in Dresden, Lissitzky created spaces of shimmer and movement by installing metallic rods and movable panels on gallery walls to encourage viewers to participate in the artwork's organization.
EL LISSITZKY BUILT THIS MODULAR AND CHANGEABLE ROOM FOR ABSTRACT ART IN 1927–28 AT THE INVITATION OF ALEXANDER DORNER FOR THE LANDESMUSEUM IN HANNOVER.
Alexander Dorner implemented El Lissitzky's design with pictures, but also sculptures by Picasso , Piet Mondrian , Fernand Léger , László Moholy-Nagy , Alexander Archipenko , Kurt Schwitters and others.
THE ABSTRACT CABINET WAS DESTROYED IN 1936 DURING THE THIRD REICH. THE INSTALLATION CAME TO MIND IMMEDIATELY WHEN AHMET ÖĞÜT CALLED FOR AN “INTERVENTION THAT IS NOT PERMANENT, BUT [THAT USES] THE ART ALREADY EXISTING IN A GIVEN MUSEUM AS A TOOL THAT COULD CREATE NEW READINGS, UNDERSTANDINGS, MISUNDERSTANDINGS, AND NEW LIFE FOR THE COLLECTION.”
El Lissitzky designed a dynamic “total work of art” that provided information about current developments in art and culture at the time and gave visitors scope for their own design variants.

DNA records reveal mass migration from Europe into Anglo-Saxon Britain
In some parts of England in Anglo-Saxon times, more than three-quarters of the population’s ancestry could be traced to recent migration from Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands

The analysis of a grave at Issendorf cemetery in Germany

In Anglo-Saxon times, more than three-quarters of the ancestry of people in parts of England was from recent north European migrants.
The finding, which comes from sequencing the DNA of people buried in the UK and mainland Europe during this time period, may settle an ongoing debate about just how much migration happened in Anglo-Saxon times, says Duncan Sayer at the University of Central Lancashire in Preston, UK.
The traditional view, based on written records and archaeological finds, is there was an influx of Europeans into Britain in Anglo-Saxon times – classed as from the end of Roman Empire control, at about AD 400, until 1066.

But more recently, there has been debate over just how many people migrated.
There could have been just small numbers of migrants, who then spread aspects of their culture, such as their buildings and pottery styles. “There are many respectable historians who think there was very little migration, says Robin Fleming at Boston College in Massachusetts.
To learn more, Sayer’s team sequenced the DNA of 460 people who were buried in graves between AD 200 and 1300, of whom 278 were from England.
This showed that during the 7th century AD, people buried in the east of England could trace 76 per cent of their ancestry to recent migration from Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands.
This would be equivalent to someone having three of their four grandparents born in Europe, says Sayer’s colleague, Stephan Schiffels at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany.
Bodies taken from graves further to the west of England had a lower proportion of their ancestry from Europe, implying that the migrants first made their homes in the east.
Fleming says the findings confirm there was mass migration from Europe into some parts of Britain. “This does something a lot of us have been looking for.”
“This brings the idea of migration back onto the table again,” says Sayer.
