Schütte, Hermann (1893 in Osnabrück - 1973 in Hamburg): "Hund-Hammer" original pen and ink drawing on cardboard approx. 24.5x35cm; signed and dated "(19)49"; handwritten title on the original passe-partout; titled again on the passepartout back cover and with address stamp A historically interesting caricature of the Bavarian CSU politician and then Minister of Education Alois Hundhammer, who was famous and notorious beyond the borders of Bavaria. Whether the trigger for Schütte's dog hammer fantasy was the cancellation of Werner Egk's ballet "Abraxas" is of course pure speculation. Here is the article from the "Zeit" of February 3, 1949: "Cultural dictatorship in Bavaria Hundhammer bans Egk's "Abraxas" for "immorality" 1949 in Munich: The Bavarian State Opera knew how to remove Werner Egk's fist ballet "Abraxas" from the program on the order of the Minister of Education, regardless of all clear contractual agreements between the artistic director and the author, regardless of the fact that the work has had five sold-out performances since its premiere last summer ( after the fifth it was halted) and notwithstanding the significant financial loss the theater will suffer as a result of the cancellation. As you can see, the Bavarian Minister of Education is not petty when it comes to money matters. The Bavarian State Opera was even invited by the Berlin magistrate to perform "Abraxas" in the original cast as a guest as part of the planned Berlin Art Weeks. "In agreement with theMinistry of Education“ this guest performance had to be cancelled. In terms of the final removal of the work from the schedule, however, there was obviously no agreement, but the state director Dr. Hartman; tried several times to ward off the ban, citing his obligations. Without success. Orders are orders – in Bavarian cultural life. And dog hammer is dog hammer. The reasons the Minister of Education invokes for his ban are uninteresting. There is no justification for acts of violence and disregard for the law, especially in artistic matters. Mr. Hundhammer also took his official oath on the Bavarian constitution, which guarantees "freedom of art". Exceptional cases are not planned for this Article 108 – to which the composer Werner Egk now rightly refers. You can only by a verdict. be statuted, who disregards the sworn constitution. The Minister of Education is reported to have accused the banned work of immorality. Is breaking the law and breaking the constitution an example of higher morality?Advertisement And what does the Munich audience say about this, which responded to the ballet in Allen performances with rapturous ovations and made it a box-office magnet of the first rank? Confused concepts about virtue and morals seem to prevail in Mr. Hundhammer's cultural powerhouse." Any questions? Do not hesitate to contact us by mail or telephone. Any questions?
