	Alexander Kluge - Biography - Moviefone

	Alexander Kluge Biography \| Dictionary of Literary Biography
		Kluge was born in 1932 to Ernst and Alice Hausdorf Kluge in Halberstadt (now in the German Democratic Republic), where his father practiced medicine.
		Kluge adapts the montage techniques of filmmaking to his writing, combining apparently arbitrary sequences of disparate and often dissonant elements (documentary and pseudodocumentary reports, ironic illustrative material, anecdotes, and interviews, as well as pure fictional narrative) to form a complex collage of associated themes.
		Kluge admits that his works may appear confusing and incomplete to the reader; indeed, this effect is the one at which he aims in his portrayals of the ambiguity he sees at the center of modern reality.

	Waggish: Case Histories, Alexander Kluge
		Kluge uses it in a historical sense, using an inappropriately objective voice to create dissociation and dissonance between the material and the narration.
		Kluge is very respectful of the ambiguity between Mandorf's inherent drive towards action, which he can never fulfill, and the horrible circumstances that drive him into resignation and isolation.
		But Kluge is remarkably equivocal, and the lack of a definitive orientation is often in danger of deflating the collection.

	Waggish: Alexander Kluge and Peter Watkins
		Kluge's Learning Processes with a Deadly Outcome is less successful than his earlier Case Histories because he decouples the human element from his reportage style.
		Kluge's goal, as far as I can tell, is to produce enough distance from those mechanisms by means of the science fiction content to expose them for the manipulative forms of speech that they are.
		The technique is fairly effective, but Kluge overplays his hand by making the material too grand-scale and not giving enough insight into how the forms of reportage are being consumed.

	Alexander Kluge - Films as Director:, Other Films:
		Alexander Kluge, the chief ideologue of the new German cinema, is the author of various books in the areas of sociology, contemporary philosophy, and social theory.
		Kluge views filmmaking as another form of writing since it essentially continues the recording of his participation in the development of society and in everyday life.
		Kluge, by means of his "Development Company for Television Producers," has been instrumental in arranging for magazines such as Der Spiegel and Stern to purchase air time on German commercial television in order for each of them to produce and broadcast independent news programs.

	Eclectic retrospective of work by German film-maker Alexander Kluge
		Kluge's manipulations of plot and circumstance clear the way for him to focus on the Peickert's external pressures, such as the inertial weight of tradition, reactions from conservative forces, and most damning of all, public indifference.
		Kluge's metaphor is indeed contrived, but it is contrived to reflect a particularly urgent reality: when Peickert fails to reform her circus in spite of the advantages working in her favor, she inexplicably moves into television, which also happened to Kluge in the 1970s.
		Kluge has been criticized for this alarming aspect of his metaphor, since his omission of any hint of a solution casts a despairing and gloomy vision of the future of the New German Cinema.

	Alexander Kluge
		Kluge's theories of the cinema are founded on the conception that mainstream narrative cinema—not only Hollywood, but also importantly, 'Papa's Kino' (the post-war German cinema denounced in the Oberhausen manifesto)—works by a process of closing off the ability for the spectator to engage their imaginative faculties while watching a film.
		Kluge is therefore, not interested in 'conquering the spectator' or directing them toward a predetermined series of associations, as was the case with Eisenstein's dialectical approach, but his theory of montage is interested in involving the spectator in the production of meaning, effectively making them “co-producers” of the film.
		Kluge's films are very much an expression of many of the tenets addressed in the Oberhausen manifesto, as well as of Kluge's own writings, particularly regarding the role film should play in the public sphere of the Federal Republic.

	Filme / Alexander Kluge
		Kluge selbst hat sein ästhetisches Programm mit der Unaufgeräumtheit und Vorläufigkeit von Baustellen verglichen.
		Wenn man Kluges Oeuvre dennoch auf ein Thema festlegen möchte, dann wäre dies: deutsche Geschichte, sowie: die Geschichtlichkeit der Gegenwart, Geschichte hier aber nicht verstanden als zu erschließender kompakter Gegenstand, den der Autor vor sich hinstellt, über den er Feststellungen trifft, sondern Geschichte als die Arbeit an einem Wahrnehmungsverhältnis und ein fortwährendes Infragestellen von Geschichtsbildern.
		Geschichtlichkeit ist für Kluge der irreduzible Horizont seiner Arbeit und eine soziale Utopie.

		Kluge takes three specific examples illustrating "education as a losing game." Adolf Reichwein was a senior Prussian civil servant and professor.
		Kluge uses the material to postulate that, at all bad times throughout their thousand-year-old history, the Germans have always awaited a rescuer such as the waking Emperor Barbarossa on the Kyffhäuser.
		Kluge's first film (in cooperation with Peter Schamoni) attemps to analyse the Nazi system on the basis of its architecture, using pictures of the "Reich party conference area" in Nuremberg and plans of a gigantic congress hall in the Roman style.

	Review - Alexander Kluge: the last modernist
		Lutze attempts to contribute to the modernism/postmodernism debate by situating Kluge in the former category, or else "as a bridge between modernism and postmodernism".
		None of Kluge's earlier provocations matched this one, as he turned to his own advantage the requirement of all channels that some degree of high culture be present.
		This is an extreme of the direction indicated by Kluge's talented beginnings with short films, and Lutze both documents and analyses it very well, considerably expanding the going image of this important filmmaker.

	Alexander Kluge - The Last Modernist - Peter C. Lutze
		Through his films and theoretical writings, and as a television producer, teacher, political lobbyist, lawyer, and public spokesman, Alexander Kluge has played a substantial role in creating the New German Cinema, as well as in German cultural politics.
		Since 1961 Kluge has produced almost thirty films and hundreds of television programs, written four volumes of fiction, coauthored three major works of sociocultural theory, and won almost every major literary and film prize in Germany.
		In raising issues that have become key questions in contemporary debates about modernism and postmodernism, Kluge's films and pronouncements demonstrate his modernist sensibility and an appropriation of modernist formal strategies for the purpose of the social critique.

	Alexander Kluge
		Alexander Kluge is one of the few truely universal talents in Germany: lawyer, writer, filmmaker, philosopher, art critic, media politician – in short, a man who goes through the world with his eyes wide open, refusing to accept the perspective of a single standpoint.
		Artistically, Kluge prefers to be seen as a chronicler and interpreter.
		However, at the same time Alexander Kluge’s books and particularly his films are held to be difficult because they do not adopt traditional narrative methods.

	4 Films by Alexander Kluge - International Programs - The University of Iowa
		Although not as well-known today as Fassbinder or Herzog, Kluge’s skills as a political activist and filmmaker were central to the creation of New German Cinema.
		Kluge’s first feature tells the story of Anita G., a young Jewish woman who migrates from East to West Germany only to find her new home as difficult to get along in as the one she left.
		With his second film Kluge uses a circus setting to allegorically examine the place of the artist in the Federal Republic of Germany.

	ALEXANDER KLUGE
		Os curtas de Alexander Kluge exibidos no Paço foram uma excelente oportunidade para o público carioca conhecer os primeiros trabalhos do cineasta, assim como a formação do "novo cinema alemão".
		Nesse sentido, o centro da tentativa de Kluge ocorre quando ela tenta reconstituir o episódio quando uma pessoa invadira a casa e quebrara um valioso pote.
		Se persarmos o cinema de Kluge como uma tentativa de compor um painel da história alemã com um paralelo entre passado e presente, marcado pela fragmentação e pela recusa ao documentário didático, talvez seu exemplo mais característico seja justamente Bombeiro E. Winterstein.

	Die medienpolitische Arbeit / Alexander Kluge
		Was sich auf den ersten Blick in viele Teilexistenzen zu dissoziieren scheint, ergibt indessen bei genauerem Hinsehen einen komplexen Zusammenhang.
		In Sachen Filmpolitik hatte Kluge seinen ersten Auftritt 1962 auf den Kurzfilmtagen in Oberhausen, wo eine Gruppe junger Regisseure mit der Verkündung des "Oberhausener Manifests" - gewissermaßen der Gründungsakt des Neuen Deutschen Films - gegen das tief in die Krise geratene Kino der Vätergeneration Front machte.
		Das galt auch für Kluge, der gerade mit BRUTALITÄT IN STEIN UND RENNEN debütiert hatte.

		At once a genuine story-teller and a literary documentarian, Alexander Kluge's genius lies in the very special way he makes found material his own.
		In each piece, Kluge alights on precise particulars: on board the atomic submarine Kursk, for instance, we are marched precisely step by step through a fl comedy of the exact, disastrous stages of thinking that lead to catastrophe.
		Chernobyl, the Kursk, 9/11, asymmetrical warfare - the disasters of modernity are viewed by Kluge as missives to all of us, who live, as he writes, in the Devil's blind spot.

		Alexander Kluge is one of those people who writes books, directs movies, is a TV/radio producer, and knows everyone.
		Kluge offers some 173 "stories" but they are really aperçus, like his vision of Chernobyl --- complete with an appalling picture of a cur caught in the original burst of radioactivity.
		(The dialogue at the end is part of Kluge's microdrama, with which he archly comments on the previous narrative.)

		Asserts that Kluge's stories mean “to sing the heroism of the commonplace and to celebrate a tragedy so fragmented and proliferated that our age seems incapable of noting it except by documents and statistics.”
		Asserts that The Battle is “an unusual literary-documentary pastiche that reveals the ironies, tragedies, and stupidities of a significant episode in World War II.”
