After 1945 they departed from here impulses for the modern musical theatre.
Trials of ballet under John Neumeier. American by birth, one of the young choreographers more meanings, has become internationally famous for the Hamburg Ballet.
Balance on the third centenary of the Hamburg Opera: with nearly half a million spectators each season, is one of the most popular musical theatres in Germany.

Approach of a 1950s era: nostalgia in art and fashion, technique and design.
The dream of the German youth in the 1950s: the motorcycle called "Scooter". A time stamp intended to do more than arouse nostalgic evocations: the period after the second world war and the establishment of the Federal Republic of Germany, lit by technical progress and science. The "Volkswagen" evolved into heavy duty transportation means; and the Argentine Fangio imposed on track in the world.
The various taste then is reflected in two models of dwellings: the fourth in series with a reniform table, armchairs, cocktail and live flowers decorated; Next, the beautiful furnished in Scandinavian style. Glasses and other items of use of excellent design, so dear today as in the 1950s. The Visual Arts are represented with outstanding examples of the tachisme, constructivism, and kinetics.
Audiovisual projections reinforce the retrospective. The 1950s marked the beginning of the space age; the television begins in Germany; and everywhere wins the "rock'n roll" and is acclaimed to his prophets Elvis Presley and Bill Haley.
At the time characterized by dire straits fugitives from the East and unemployment are given the first slow steps toward French fashion and simple American clothing. -We must add that among young people today in day return to succeed the "petticoats", tubular pants and pointy shoes.

An idea for environmental protection that departed from the industry and the population accepted immediately. In the Federal Republic of Germany, more than 300,000 tons of used glass were not to stop last year garbage dumps, but containers arranged on the streets, for your further feedback.
A beneficial action not only ecologically; the price of the new glass also recommends the method of recycling.
Once cleaned and sorted by colors, glass is reduced to powder, melted and molded again.
Despite some protests from residents of the units affected by the noise, the environmentally sound recovery of glass seems to charge force in the Federal Republic and in other countries.
When the glass is given purpose than the simple container, it is crafted by hand, as in Great Britain, for example. It seems one of the simplest in the world, but not so. See you same!
Costs no little breath, though, that Yes, well proportioned. Hands and movements of blowers and recorders of glass must be as flexible as insurance to make his work finished beauty.
