Gatherr RSS

Pronounced "Gatherer", but, hey, it's web 2.0 and we leave the last
"e" out right? Gatherr collects the best of this and that from here and
there on the web for no other reason than sharing. It's about stuff
that seemed interesting at the time. Enjoy.




ABOUT

My
name is Tony Johansen. I am an artist. I like art and science and
poetry and books and history and technology and lots more besides.
Every day I am excited by the marvelous things I see in this wonderful
world and beyond. I love the Internet for giving me access to so much.
I am like a sponge for wondrous things or things that make me wonder. This site is really just a
scrapbook. Being on the web, however, means being able to share the
treasures I find. That's me, Tony Johansen, artist who likes to share
my excitement of being alive.

    In the 1930’s Austrian cultural life enjoyed the work and passion of many Jewish artists. It was the same at the Vienna State Opera, pictured here. A famed conductor, a lowly laundress, singers, dancers, musicians. Jews, part Jews, or married to Jews - they were all a valued part of Vienna’s opera family - until the Nazis came in 1938. Thereafter no Jew was permitted to be involved in any way with any kind of public cultural life.
