Purdue's Jeff Brohm finalizing deal to coach Louisville

Purdue’s Jeff Brohm finalizing deal to coach Louisville

Jeff Brohm is going back home, as he and Louisville are finalizing a deal to make him the Cardinals’ next head football coach, sources told ESPN on Wednesday. Brohm has been the head coach at Purdue the past six seasons and guided the Boilermakers to the Big Ten championship game this season. He had an outstanding playing career at Louisville and remains among the school’s leaders in touchdown…

In 1979, at the age of 24 and while still a student at Folkwang School Essen, Joachim Brohm set out to document the semi-private architecture of the Schreber gardens, the German equivalent to the allotment garden named after the physician Moritz Schreber. Likely inspired by the Bechers’s typologies of industrial architecture Brohm shows the often hand-built houses crowning in all of their variety: sometimes a mere hut, sometimes quite elobrate small houses these buildings and their surrounding gardens are the extended living rooms of their lodgers. Set against the neutral grey sky of the German winter Brohm approaches the houses from the gardens' gates and documents the various forms and shapes of the houses. But in contrast to the Bechers he never solely focuses on the architecture but also shows the interesting details and leftover artifcats present around the houses which tell of the life going on in and around them during spring and summer: footballs, lawn gnomes or simple vegetable beds immerse the viewer in the little stories hidden behind the walls and artifacts that are inextricably connected to the sphere of the Schreber gardens. Some might sniff at these identifiers of a petty bourgeois lifestyle but Brohm documents a grown cultural form that at the moment sees a revival among mostly well-educated urbanites.

That this early work of Joachim Brohm finally saw the light of day in 2014 is due to Mack Publishing who in close cooperation with the artist transferred his photographs into the present volume, fittingly entitled "Typology 1979". It gathers 35 Schreber garden photographs and a highly readable introduction to the series by Ulf Erdmann Ziegler who not only studied in the Ruhr area at the same time as Brohm did but also provides a historico-cultural excursus into the late 1970s Ruhr area and the Schreber gardens in particular, an essays that makes the book both a visual and intellectual pleasure!

A German daycare center named after Anne Frank is changing its name, alleging that children have a hard time understanding the message behind the story of the world famous Jewish diarist murdered in the Holocaust.

The daycare is located in Tangerhütte, a small town in northern Germany. Debate over the center’s name has drawn attention across the country, but Mayor Andreas Brohm defended the school’s move.

German media reports that parents wanted the center to push a message more focused on international diversity, hence the new name of World Explorers.

The International Auschwitz Committee, which was founded by Holocaust survivors, strongly condemned the renaming. The Jerusalem Post reported that the school had had the Anne Frank name since 1970.

“If you are willing to dismiss your own history so carelessly, especially in these times of new antisemitism and right-wing extremism, and if Anne Frank ‘s name is perceived as unsuitable in public space, you can only become fearful and anxious when it comes to the culture of remembrance in our country,” said Christoph Heubner, according to the German MDR broadcaster.

Miteinander e.V., a German organization that promotes “open society,” said the renaming “sends the wrong signal in a time of strengthening #Antisemitism.”

“There are good, tried-and-tested pedagogical concepts for conveying the topic of Anne Frank’s life to children and young people that work age-appropriately and appropriately with contemporary historical fate,” the organization wrote in a thread on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

Antisemitic incidents have spiked across Western Europe since Oct. 7, when Hamas killed over 1,400 Israelis, sparking an Israeli counterattack has killed thousands in the Gaza Strip. On Oct. 18, two people threw Molotov cocktails at a synagogue in Berlin.

The day care center manager said they wanted something without a ‘political background.’

(...) According to television outlet n-tv, the city council said that some parents and employees requested to the change the name. The daycare center manager Linda Schichor said that children struggle to understand the name, while parents with a migration background often don’t relate to Anne Frank, German media Volksstimme first reported over the weekend. “We wanted something without a political background,” Schichor said.

Andreas Brohm, the mayor of Tangerhütte in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, said the name change was in discussion but there was no concrete decision yet. “That wasn’t even up for debate, that’s the crazy thing. It wasn’t up for decision before Saturday, it’s a discussion process that’s ongoing” Brohm told POLITICO on Monday.

The plan was to find something “that has a more positive connotation, not because Anne Frank has a negative connotation, but because people associate what they associate with it and with the day-care center concept,” Brohm said. (...)

Recently Received Maser by Joachim Brohm

[germanpostwarmodern]

The austere beauty and precision of Mies van der Rohe’s has literally been captured by thousands of photographers, be it amateurs or Hedrich-Blessing, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Michael Wesely and even Julius Shulman. What all of them have in common is the focus on the auratic appeal of Mies’s buildings, a quality that admittedly is hard to ignore. The German photographer Joachim Brohm approaches Mies’ architecture differently: between 2013 and 2023 he visited sites buildings of Mies van der Rohe but refrained from the usual, wide-angled architectural photography that dominates the perception of his architecture. Instead, Brohm focused on the materiality, the many transformational interventions and the reconstruction as well as interpretation of Mies van der Rohe’s architecture.

A selection of photographs from this long-term project Brohm published last year in the book „LESSMORE - Buildings, sites and scenes in reference to Ludwig Mies van der Rohe“ via his self-publishing house BR-ED: on 300 pages the book shows less of the buildings as an iconic whole and more of their checkered history, their transitory state. This approach has become a hallmark of Brohm’s more recent work, e.g. in his „Areal“ series, and offers the spectator a novel perspective on an architecture seemingly well-known. Photographs of the Neue Nationalgalerie during restoration, the rebuilt Barcelona Pavilion or the temporary resurrection of the never built Golf Club in Krefeld trigger a reflective process about the historicity and museumization of Mies’s buildings. In this context Wolfgang Ullrich brought up Roger Buergel’s leitmotif of documenta 12 in 2007: „Is Modernity our Antiquity?“, a fitting question in view of the fact that Mies’ heroic projects are roughly a hundred years old and the context in which they were conceived become ever more foreign to today’s spectators. Brohm’s photographs show these buildings as modern antiques in which different layers of time have inscribed themselves and deconstruct the perfect image we have of them. But embedded in this challenge is the opportunity to gain new insights into the meaning of modernity as well as its contemporary condition. A brilliant book!

Michigan: 2022 Big Ten Football Champions

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Donovan Edwards ran for 185 yards and a score, J.J. McCarthy threw three touchdown passes and No. 2 Michigan beat Purdue 43-22 on Saturday night for its second straight Big Ten title and a likely No. 2 playoff seed.

College football’s winningest program has the first 13-win season in school history. Two more victories would give the Wolverines (13-0, No. 2 CFP) their first national championship since 1997.

And with injured star Blake Corum sidelined by a season-ending left knee injury, Edwards stole the show for the second straight week.

After shredding rival Ohio State for 216 yards and two scores last week, Edwards broke open this game with a 60-yard on the first play of the second half to set up one score. He added a 27-yard TD sprint on Michigan’s next series to make it 28-13.

Purdue (8-5) never recovered from Michigan’s quick, seven-play onslaught after it trailed 14-13 at halftime.

But quarterback Aidan O’Connell and receiver Charlie Jones helped the Boilermakers make it interesting for a while.

O’Connell was 32 of 47 with 366 yards and two interceptions after missing some practice time early this week to mourn the death of his oldest brother. Jones, who lost to Michigan in last year’s game while playing for Iowa, had 13 receptions for 162 yards.

It just wasn’t enough.

Michigan showed no signs of a hangover after last week’s rout over the Buckeyes, taking a 7-0 lead on its opening possession with a 25-yard TD pass from McCarthy to Colston Loveland.

Purdue answered with Devin Mockobee’s 1-yard scoring run to tie the score then took the lead on Mitchell Fineran’s 33-yard field goal.

Michigan answered by taking advantage of an offside call on fourth-and-6 by going for the first down, picking it up and eventually converting the drive into a 7-yard TD pass from McCarthy to Luke Schoonmaker. They never trailed again.

Edwards big run set up Kalel Mullings’ 1-yard TD plunge before Edwards celebrated his own scoring run.

All Purdue could muster was three more field goals.

McCarthy was 11 of 17 with 161 yards and one interception.

Corum posted a message on Twitter on Saturday morning to say his knee surgery went well.

THE TAKEAWAY

Purdue: The Boilermakers’ magical season ended with a solid showing in the championship game where they played better than most expected. Still, they won the Big Ten’s wild, wild West, both trophy games and should be bound for a warm-weather bowl game.

Michigan: Yes, the Wolverines may have already locked up a top-two seed thanks to losses by Southern Cal and TCU. Michigan now has back-to-back conference crowns for the first time since 2003-04 though the hard part remains — ending its national title drought.

DIALING UP TRICKERY

Purdue head coach Jeff Brohm played one season in the now defunct XFL and has acknowledged that experience helped him understand how to inject personality and creativity into play calling. It was on full display Saturday.

A surprise end around set up Purdue’s first score, a fake punt helped keep its second scoring drive alive and then Mockobee sprinted 25 yards on a fake flea-flicker in the third quarter.
