MacKenzie Mallon works as the provenance specialist at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and is a participant of the German-American Exchange program on provenance research (PREP) this year. She told us about her recent research on a Lionel Feininger painting where she also used information from the Zentralarchiv.
MacKenzie, you are working at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art as theprovenance specialist. Can you briefly explain what kind of museum this is and what it collects?
The Nelson-Atkins is an encyclopedic museum. We collect art objects from cultures around the world, all the way back from antiquity up to the present day. In addition to our European and our American collections, we are especially well known for our Chinese art and our photography collection.
What is your job at the museum?
My specialty here at the Nelson-Atkins is Nazi era provenance and the research for Nazi-looted art. I have a long term project to research all the European works in our collection for which we do not have complete provenance between 1933 and 1945. I also do special projects when questions come up, maybe for new acquisitions, or if we find something that we need more information about. , Alll the curatorial departmentsconduct provenance research and I am here to help them with any problems they may have and to support them in that research.
Given the encyclopedic character of the Nelson-Atkins' collections, does the museum have more provenance researchers or are you the only one at the museum at the moment?
I'm the only one who does provenance research exclusively. Every curatorial department researches their collections in addition to their other projects, but I am the only one who is completely dedicated to provenance research and I am the only one who focuses on the Nazi-Era.
When you speak about your long-term project, long term means a few of years, I suppose?
So there's still some work for you to do. Could you tell me about your recent research, was there anything special last year?
In the last year, I've been researching all of our modern paintings, especially the German expressionists' works. Then Scott Heffley, senior conservator of paintings at the Nelson-Atkins, told me about slashes in the canvas of our Feininger, "Gaberndorf II". He suspected that perhaps the painting had been a victim of the "Degenerate Art" campaign. It very well could have been, as Feininger certainly was in Germany until 1937. We decided that we needed to find out when the painting was in Germany and when it left and try to find some more information about it. So I moved that painting to the top of our list.
How did you start with the research?
I started with what we knew about the painting's history from the catalogue raisonné and the records we had in our files. One of the things we knew was that it had been on exhibit at the National Gallery in Berlin in 1931 to 1932. So I contacted the Zentralarchiv of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin and asked them if they could send us any documentation they have regarding who lent the painting to the exhibition. The painting was created in 1924, so if we knew who had lent it to the exhibition in 1931 that would give us a big clue as to its owner before the war and possibly where it might have been during the war. The colleagues at the Zentralarchiv were so kind and helpful. They sent me scans of their records which enabled us to determine that the painting had been lent to the exhibition by Feininger himself, which was very interesting. At that point we needed to find out how long Feininger kept the painting and if he sold it before the war.
The next step was that I went through Feininger's letters published by his wife. I finally found some from 1925 in which Feininger actually described slashing the painting himself! This was a real surprise to us. He was not happy with the composition right after he painted it and decided to destroy it. But a couple of weeks later he had a change of heart and decided to repair it. And he actually kept it with him for many years after that. It was a relief to us that it wasn't a victim of the "degenerate art" destruction, of course. And to find that information really helped our research a lot.
Then how did you proceed?
We knew from the letters that Feininger was the one who slashed it. We knew that he had lent it to the National Gallery Exhibition in 1931/32. So from that point on, it was researching where else he had lent it to exhibitions. The painting had been shown in a numberof exhibitions between 1932 and 1945. So I had to contact the museums in Germany and here in the US to find out whether he was the lender or whether someone else had lent it. It turned out that in every case Feininger himself had lent the painting to German exhibitions and to American exhibitions.
How did you find out at which museums the painting had been on display? Apart from the Nationalgalerie you had no information about them. Or was it also in the catalogue raisonné?
A lot of it was in the catalogue raisonée. To find some of them was just by chance, looking in exhibition catalogues of Feininger's work and trying to match up works that were in these exhibitions with ours. I requested copies of exhibition catalogues; as many as I could get my hands on. Dozens and dozens of exhibition catalogues of Feininger's paintings. A lot of it was looking for a needle in a haystack. But when we were able to find that he lent it to a US exhibition in 1937, then, at that point, we knew it was in the States by 1937. That was helpful.
When did the Nelson-Atkins acquire the painting?
We acquired it in 1946, right after the war. And we now know that Feininger lent it to a lot of exhibitions between his return to America in 1937 and our acquisition in 1946. They were all in the US. He kept it with him throughout the war.
Did you find out when he actually sold it?
He gave it on consignment to a dealer in New York in 1946 and we bought it from them the same year. So Feininger had the painting with him for over 22 years, which is interesting considering the fact that when he first painted it, he didn't like it and destroyed it. And then he put it back together and kept it with him for decades!
Did you find out anything else about his personal feelings for this painting, and were you able to fill all the gaps in the painting's history?
Just what he said in his letters about it, right after he created it. That he didn't like it and then that he repaired it. About two months later he says in his letters that now he is really pleased with it and thinks that it is one of his best works and that he is seeing it in a different light. I think the one thing I wish that we could find that I haven't been able to determine is the exact date that Feininger shipped the painting out of Germany to the US. There is a really faded purple stamp on the back of the painting that looks like a customs stamp. So I contacted customs stamp experts all over Europe from different countries asking them if they could recognize the stamp. Eventually I was referred to the Czech General Director of Customs, who identified it as a Czech customs stamp probably dated from just before World War II. This corresponds with Feininger's departure from Europe in 1937. I suspect that he probably shipped the painting right then in 1937 the same time that he left Germany. But the details of the exact time and the method of shipping is something that is not very easy to find.
And how long did the research take all together?
Did you spend all your time on that one painting?
No, one always has to wait for answers. A lot of times I'll find myself working on ten or twelve works at the same time and it can get a little confusing. Documentation, taking notes of what I've done and what I still need to do is really important. Otherwise I'd lose my place.
Did you have any contact with the Zentralarchiv of the Berlin museums before for any other research or was this the first time you approached them?
Yes, a couple of years ago I had asked them about a Signac painting in our collection. They were able to identify a label on the back of the painting as from the Moderne Galerie Thannhauser, which was extremely helpful to me. I have to ask a lot of people a lot of things and when you are working in the US on European works of art a lot of research that you need is obviously not at your fingertips. My museum is very supportive with travel-funding, but I can't spend all of my time in Europe. Since I can't get there very often I try to combine a lot of research into one big trip. If I need something quickly or something small, then I have to rely on the kindness of people over there. I have to rely on archivists and museum staff and researchers in Europe a lot. I couldn't do this kind of research without their help.
Whatever is digitized is already a big help, I suppose.
Oh yes, absolutely. I think it's helpful for all researchers whether they are in the US or in Europe. Certainly digitization makes things so much easier since you don't have to leave your desk. The Getty databases for example, they are huge. They put so much on their website, but they have so much more that is not digitized. The Getty is actually one of my most frequent research trips. They have so much available there.
One of our institutes also has a digitization project on the auction catalogues of the years 1930 to 1945. Did you ever come across those as well?
Yes, I use them all the time! They are connected to the Heidelberg University and to the Getty. I think they are extremely helpful.
Is being part of PREP helpful for your work as well?
The February PREP was really a revelation for me. It far exceeded my expectations. The on-site visits to the archives in New York were very helpful and interesting. But by far the best part of the program was meeting other provenance researchers, especially the Germans, because we are doing the same work on two continents. But before PREP we didn't speak to each other enough. I didn't realize how different provenance research is in Germany. It seems that so much of the German research is project-based and government-organized whereas in the US we are usually employed by individual museums or we work independently. The Germans therefore seem to be much more connected to each other, their work seems more collaborative. In the US, the researchers talk to each other a lot, but I don't think we do to the extent that the Germans do. So there is so much that we American researchers can learn from them. Hopefully they can learn something from us Americans too! I think the September PREP-meeting will be just as good as the New York one. I am not as familiar with the German archives so it will be really great to learn more about them and especially to have the German researchers there to help guide us through them and give us pointers.
Do you have anything that you would like to share, something I didn't ask but you think is important?
The most important thing that I would want to convey is how grateful I am, and I think many American provenance researchers are, that our European colleagues are willing to collaborate with us. It means a lot to us to have the opportunity to work alongside them, to meet them at PREP, to share ideas and to broaden our understanding of this field by sharing our common experiences and working on similar problems together. I hope we can continue our collaboration, I hope that we can do even more work together in the future. I think that PREP is an excellent starting place for that kind of collaboration.
Can you finally tell me what is your personal background, how did you start with provenance research?
I kind of fell into it. My undergraduate degree is in history, but my Master's degree is in art history. I've always loved history and the fascinating stories that go with it. So about six years ago I was working as an assistant in the European department at the Nelson-Atkins and the curator at the time asked me if I could help her with some Nazi Era provenance research. She knew that I had studied both history and art history and that I knew some languages including German, so I started to do some provenance research as a side project and I really enjoyed it. So I made it a point to learn as much as I could about the field. Then in early 2015, when I was asked to consider doing provenance research fulltime, I jumped at the chance. I have been a provenance specialist ever since. The Nelson-Atkins is fully committed to provenance research on its collections and it's wonderful to work in a museum that's so supportive.

The complainant stated that his wife left him because of misunderstanding and because the two of them were hurting each other. According to the complainant, it all started when he left home to work in Manila and his wife also decided to work abroad. Janiza stated that she was being hurt by Ryan so her present boyfriend rescued her until their relationship turned into a serious one. Ryan also explained that he was just tired and hungry at that time and pissed off by Janiza. Janiza stated that their marriage is fake and she had evidences from NSO.

If you feel as though your residents care about recycling and don't really understand how, you are not alone. While Portland requires that residents receive recycling information within thirty days of move-in, sometimes a flyer seems to go unread.
One step you can consider is to update your leases. Below you'll find links to examples of how property managers and owners in other states and cities engage their tenants around garbage and recycling concerns. Remember, these links are not legal advice.
For instance, New York City provides clear guidance in their suggested lease language. They require residents to acknowledge that they received notice of how to recycle designated materials, including responsibility for knowing the location of the collection area, and understanding that all requirements apply to guests, visitors and subtenants.
In San Diego, landlords can include a recycling agreement where the resident recognizes that s/he has received guidance about what can be recycled and where, and includes clear instructions about move-in / move-out procedures.
And if you manage or work with a condominium Home Owners Association, you might want to consider the City of Chicago's by-law insert.
Lease language sets clear expectations for your residents at move in. It gets everyone on the same page and is a great strategy for proactively addressing collection area concerns.


Disasters are not "won" in the moment. The before (preparedness) and after (recovery) that are the most important times when an emergency situation arises - not to mention the most ripe for disruption and innovation. Instead of spending so much energy focusing on 'managing' disasters (reacting, responding, surviving) - we should be looking at how to improve the ways we prepare, learn from, and rebuild when bad things happen. And the key to that conversation - media. Media is a resilience infrastructure. It makes us smarter as individuals, more connected as communities and groups. This session will focus on how we can better use media to train and mobilize individuals to prepare for disaster, and the role that media can play in rebuilding faster and better.

There is one thing I absolutely don't understand: If there is an 'DiscoverAppliancesRequest', the payload will be filled with discovered appliances. But in this example, they are hard-coded! Why? I expected some kind of request to the device cloud, returning the available devices. What is the point of hard-coding them? What am I missing? And if possible, how is the request to the device cloud actually made?
Sorry if this is a stupid question. I am a beginner.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Why are all the examples hard coded?
I am not out of the weeds yet. Is there an AWS service to return the appliances associated with someones account? It sounds like you wrote your own endpoint for REMOTE_CLOUD_HOSTNAME. Does this service exist out of the box?
Just finished my NodeJS discovery code from the sample code which calls now my endpoint, which in turns queries all my AP9212 devices via NSMP for the names of the outlets, and returns the JSON directly to Lambda, which just passes the JSON back to the smarthome skill.
* Make an HTTPS call to remote endpoint.


4.9.18 — Elizabeth Ennen '08, assistant director of Northeastern University School of Law's Program on Human Rights and the Global Economy (PHRGE), has been appointed chair of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's (SJC) Standing Committee on Pro Bono Legal Services. The SJC justices chose Ennen, who has served on the Pro Bono Committee since 2016, for a three-year term as chair — she assumed the position on March 1, 2018, and will continue in this role until November 1, 2021.
The Standing Committee on Pro Bono Legal Services was established by the SJC in 1999 to promote volunteer legal work in Massachusetts by helping individuals of limited means who need legal representation. The committee encourages volunteer legal work through a variety of means, including the recognition of exemplary pro bono services on the part of law students, attorneys, law firms and legal organizations; the communication of the value of pro bono legal services to attorneys throughout Massachusetts; and regular committee visits to Massachusetts' nine law schools.
Ennen holds a PhD in philosophy from McGill University. After teaching for several years at Middlebury College, she left academia for a career in law. She received a JD from Northeastern in 2008 and clerked for the Honorable Justice Margot Botsford '73 at the SJC. From 2010 until 2016, Ennen served as a pro bono asylum attorney at Community Legal Services and Counseling Center (CLSACC), where she was also a consultant for operations and technology. She also spent a year as a volunteer research assistant at the Harvard Immigration and Refugee Clinic, where she drafted a new appendix on procedural issues in asylum law for Law of Asylum in the United States, a treatise by Professor Deborah Anker '75. Ennen received the SJC's Adams Pro Bono Publico Award in 2015 for her work at CLSACC and at Harvard. She joined PHRGE in 2016.


Gracious God, you have called us to live out our faith, not only as individuals, but also in community with others. Help us to be mindful of this call as we reflect upon and deepen our walk of discipleship in this Lenten season. With open hearts, ready to receive, may we hear your word to us this day. Amen.
Today, we continue our Lenten sermon series on maintaining integrity in the midst of conflict. Pastor Dave spoke about those times when we have to stay true to our convictions even if it might disappoint others, as well as those times when we have to stay true to ourselves when others disappoint us.
Today, we are focusing on standing up for others. How do we maintain the courage of our convictions when we see someone else being put down? Sometimes this happens in the middle of an already brewing conflict. Sometimes this is, itself, the source of the conflict.
In today's story, Jesus finds himself having dinner in Bethany (a little ways outside of Jerusalem) at the home of his good friends, Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. It's a while after Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead (and obviously he's doing well – he's having dinner). His sister, Martha, is serving. And we can assume that some or all of the other disciples were there, even though Judas is the only one named.
And in walks Mary with a huge bottle of expensive perfume. And she proceeds to pour it over Jesus' feet, anointing him. And then she wipes his feet dry with her hair. And, as you can imagine, the room filled up with the overwhelming smell of perfume.
Right away, Judas jumps in with his criticism: What a waste of money. This perfume cost about year's salary. That could have gone a long way to feed the poor.
Now, you probably noticed that the gospel writer doesn't pull any punches when talking about Judas. There are a couple of side commentaries included to tell us first, that Judas is about to betray Jesus; and second, that Judas was a thief who used to steal from the common purse (whether or not this accusation is true, who knows). The writer of John clearly doesn't think that Judas has any real concern for the poor (again, who knows if that is totally fair). But Judas is being combative in this moment. And Judas is combating Jesus, as well as Mary.
Right away, Jesus defends Mary. Her act of anointing is an act of faith and devotion. She bought this perfume (with her own money) to anoint Jesus for his burial. And she decides that now is the time to do so – when he's there with her, alive and well, when she can express her love and devotion to him, rather than waiting until after his death.
Clearly Judas doesn't really understand this. The other disciples probably don't either. Perhaps none of them are ready to face up to the reality that this is the last week of Jesus' life. But Mary is. She is the one who meets Jesus where he is in that moment. He knows he's going to die. He sees where this road is headed. And, as strong and passionate as he his, no doubt he is also grieving. And so Mary meets him in his grief. And cares for him with a loving act of service as she anoints his feet with this perfume she's saved for him.
Six days later Jesus will wash his disciples' feet at the Passover meal. And he will tell his disciples to go and do likewise in service to others. But Mary doesn't need that lesson. She already understands. It's clear that John is lifting up Mary as the model disciple in this story.
Now, we might be troubled by the fact that Jesus says to Judas "you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me." Does that mean Jesus doesn't care about the poor? Of course he does.
But Jesus tells the truth in this moment. They won't always have him. There will still be poor people in need of care and compassion after he's gone. That doesn't mean they're off the hook. And, actually, I think Jesus is calling out Judas' hypocrisy in this moment. Judas jumps down Mary's throat for wasting money on Jesus instead of giving it to the poor. But what has Judas done for the poor today? And very likely Jesus already sees the writing on the wall that Judas is the one who will betray him.
The last week of Jesus' life was rife with conflict, including conflicts within this group of disciples. And, in the midst of this conflict, Jesus maintains his integrity and stands up for Mary. He understands her actions and motivations. He sees her care and devotion as an act of faith. And he's not going to let Judas or any of the others get away with picking on her.
And, in the midst of this conflict, Mary also maintains her integrity and stands up for Jesus. She doesn't care if the others get it, or think this act of anointing Jesus is weird or wasteful. She wants to care for Jesus while she can. Perhaps she sees the toll this is taking on him. Perhaps she understands his grief more deeply than anyone else can at this moment. After all, she thought she lost her brother just a little while ago; she knows grief. And so Mary meets Jesus where he is and cares for him.
Both Jesus and Mary are models for us as we seek to stand up for and stand with others.
And this is challenging. I don't love conflict. I'd rather avoid it. Obviously, when it comes to violent conflict, I'd rather people work for peaceful resolutions before it descends into violence. And when it comes to interpersonal conflict, I'd rather people try to get along, and listen to each other, and try to find common ground and common goals.
But people don't always do that. And sometimes it seems really difficult to get to a place where true dialogue and active listening to another's perspective can actually occur.
So what do we do when times of conflict arise? How do we respond when people act like Judas and snap at others, and judge others, and belittle others? How do we stand up for others and do what's right?
But is that true? If we're honest with ourselves, have there been times where we've been too quick to judge? Have we misread another's intentions and actions and judged them for it? Have we snapped at someone or belittled someone unintentionally? We want to be like Mary and Jesus. But haven't we sometimes acted like Judas?
In those times, perhaps we have to check ourselves. And apologize. And work to repair the relationship. And help work toward an environment where better mutual communication can occur. That's not always easy.
And what about those times when we find ourselves witnessing someone else being put down? Or what if we find ourselves at the receiving end of someone else's belittling comment? How do we respond? How do we stand up, in that moment, for others or for ourselves? How do we take a stand for respect and better treatment of people?
It seems to me like there are two things that are important in any response.
One, I think we have to speak the truth in love and call out bad behavior for what it is without belittling the person in return. I don't think being combative or disrespectful in response is usually very helpful or effective. If we want respectful treatment of others, we have to practice it.
Two, I think we ought to at least try to model an alternative way of communicating and try to keep the conversation going. Growth, and transformation, and better relationships might be possible if we can stay in conversation without enduring or dishing out further harm.
It's not always possible, of course. And sometimes we have to walk away in order to maintain our integrity or to help protect another or ourselves from further harm. People don't always want to grow and change. And we certainly can't force them.
I also find it helpful to remember that most people who bully or belittle people were not born that way. More often than not, they were bullied or belittled themselves. Some people are able to work through that, perhaps with the help of a good therapist, and break the cycle, and find a deeper sense of self-worth and integrity. Others, sadly, are not able to do that and carry forward damaging behaviors that were inflicted upon them.
But boy, is it hard to navigate all of this sometimes, isn't it? And if it's hard for us adults, think of how hard it is for kids sometimes. Think back to the experiences of your own childhood and adolescence. And then add in Facebook, and Twitter, and so on… Social media can make it pretty easy to bully and pretty hard to escape from bullies. When a girl called me fat on the playground and said some other awful, mean things to other girls, we just stopped hanging out with her. But I didn't have to un-friend or block her on social media. We've all heard the stories about how isolated and alone kids can feel and how serious and tragic this become.
Bullying of any kind can do great damage to people. And, as people of faith, we are called to build others up and affirm each person's worth and dignity as children of God. And sometimes that means standing up for others when we find ourselves in a situation where we can do so.
And that takes courage. It's not always easy. We risk being bullied or belittled ourselves. And we can't necessarily predict the outcome. All we can do is speak up and offer a witness to a different way of being and acting.
Sometimes we're thrown into situations where we feel called, in the moment, to stand up on another's behalf, just as Jesus stood up for Mary.
But what about times when we intentionally take on another's struggle as our own? I think that is part of what Mary did for Jesus. When she offered her act of devotion, she was saying to him, "I see you; I see your struggle; I care about you; and I'm here with you and for you; you're not alone." And, of course, she also understood that his struggle wasn't his alone, anyway. It was much bigger than that.
And wow, can that ever be powerful for all involved… when we intentionally build relationships and community and stand up with and for each other – especially in the midst of conflict, especially when there are powerful forces attacking, belittling, or dismissing certain individuals or groups of people.
We all need to be seen, and to be known, and to have our humanity and worth affirmed. And so we stand up. Jesus modeled this for us, as did Mary of Bethany. So did Gandhi, and Martin Luther King Jr., and Sojourner Truth, and so many others who stood up for people and spoke truth to power. It matters. And it makes a difference.
It matters when people who are financially secure say I care about those who are not.
It matters when people who are white say I care about the lives of people of color.
It matters when people who are born into citizenship say I care about those who are immigrants.
It matters when men say I care about women's lives and experiences.
It matters when adults say I care about the wellbeing of children.
It matters when we humans say I care about endangered species and their habitats.
I could keep going… but you get the picture. You can continue with your own list.
It matters when people say they care about us and whatever it is we might be dealing with. We know that. We've experienced that.
And the truth is that the struggles of others really are our own as well. We are all interconnected and interdependent.
And so, when we stand up with and for others, we are choosing to affirm this interconnectedness. We are choosing to build up communities and deepen relationships, and work toward more just and peaceful future for all.
Standing up for and with others is an act of faithfulness to our call to discipleship. For we proclaim our faith in our Creator whose entire creation and whose many and diverse children are beloved, precious, and worthy of dignity and respect. Amen.
