| Summary: | Hanns Eisler was Arnold Schönberg?s favourite pupil. He worked intensively with Bertolt Brecht and composed the GDR?s national anthem. Veronika Eberhart?s artistic study focuses on the years 1938 to 1948, which the composer spent together with his wife Lou(ise) in exile in Los Angeles. Shortly after their arrival, the two became the focus of FBI investigations. They were bugged and followed. In 1947, Eisler was finally called before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), and a year later he and his wife were deported from the USA. The book contains images from Eberhart?s latest film Garten sprengen (2022) and a series of new sculptural and photographic works that can be seen in her exhibition at the IKOB Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgium.00//00Hanns Eisler war der Lieblingsschüler von Arnold Schönberg, arbeitete intensiv mit Bertolt Brecht zusammen und komponierte die Nationalhymne der DDR.
