SUMMARY:George Him: A Polish Designer for Mid-Century Britain

SUMMARY:*Postponed* Another Eye: Women Refugee Photographers in Britain after 1933
DESCRIPTION:Dorothy Bohm: Petticoat Lane Market\, London\, 1960s. Copyright Dorothy Bohm Archive.\nFour Corners Gallery\, London\n  \n*POSTPONED DUE TO THE CORONAVIRUS SITUATION*\n  \nThis Women’s History Month\, we celebrate some remarkable women who escaped Nazi persecution and helped to transform Britain’s photography scene. \nDuring the 1930s\, more than 80\,000 refugees came to Britain from Nazi-dominated Europe.  Amongst those escaping anti-Semitic and political persecution were a surprising number of women photographers. Often established practitioners\, these women brought fresh\, modernist perspectives that opened up British photography in the decades that followed. \nANOTHER EYE is the first UK exhibition to showcase this group of women\, exploring both their collective influence and inspiring personal stories. It is an opportunity to see original prints by established photographers\, including Dorothy Bohm\, Edith Tudor-Hart\, Elsbeth Juda and Gerti Deutsch\, and to discover new work by lesser-known practitioners like Elisabeth Chat\, Laelia Goehr and Erika Koch. \nFaced with the traumas of exile\, leaving behind their livelihoods and their loved ones\, these enterprising photographers overcame personal struggles to build new lives in Britain. Many re-established their studios\, producing portraits of Britain’s prominent cultural figures. Some worked in social-reportage\, documenting issues of the day for magazines like Picture Post and Lilliput. Others turned to commercial work in fashion\, advertising and publishing. \nANOTHER EYE explores how the experiences of these women refugee photographers played a significant role in representing post-war Britain. \n  \nTues-Sat: 11.00-18.00\nThurs 11.00-20.00 \n

SUMMARY:Naum Gabo
DESCRIPTION:Naum Gabo\, Head No.2 1916\, enlarged version 1964. The Work of Naum Gabo © Nina & Graham Williams / Tate. Photo: Kirstin Prisk.\nTate St Ives\, Cornwall\nTate St Ives presents this major exhibition of one of the pioneers of constructivism\, Naum Gabo. This is the first extensive presentation of his sculptures\, paintings\, drawings and architectural designs to be held in the UK for over 30 years\, and marks the centenary of the Realistic Manifesto 1920\, a set of pioneering artistic principles launched in Moscow by Gabo and his brother Antoine Pevsner. The exhibition offers a fresh perspective on Gabo’s ground-breaking experiments\, which made time\, space and synthetic materials the key building blocks of modernist art practice. The development of these ideas is shown through Gabo’s innovative use of plastic in sculpture and stage design\, his activation of abstract forms in time-based art\, and his paintings and prints. Gabo lived in the UK between 1935 and 1946\, living first in Hampstead and then in St.Ives before moving to the USA.

SUMMARY:Jacques & Jacqueline Groag: Architect & Designer
DESCRIPTION:Isokon Gallery\, London\n  \nJacques Groag\, architect and furniture designer\, and Jacqueline Groag\, textile and pattern designer\, were two celebrated residents of the Isokon in the 1940s and early 1950s\, yet due to split residence between three countries\, which often did not communicate with each other in the 20th century\, the tremendous scope of work of these second-wave Viennese Modernists has only recently become known. \nThis exhibition covers their individual careers in Vienna and Czechoslovakia\, their lives as Jewish émigrés to London\, their collaborations\, and the couple’s unique contributions in Britain to postwar exhibitions\, monuments\, furniture and textile design. The Isokon exhibition describes the Groags’ remarkable range of contacts that included Josef Hoffman\, Ludwig Wittgenstein\, Adolf Loos and Trude Fleischmann\, while the display is copiously illustrated with many of their pre- and post-war works including commissions ranging from the Austrian Werkbundsiedlung\, to the Festival of Britain\, Gordon Russell\, Swan & Edgar\, Heal’s\, Colibri and Schiaparelli. Jacqueline\, some of whose original textiles are on show\, even created the fabric for a dress worn by the future Elizabeth II. \nThe book Two Hidden Figures of the Viennese Modern Movement by Ursula Prokop will be on sale at the Gallery throughout the season.

SUMMARY:Between Two Worlds
DESCRIPTION:Fred Uhlman\, Welsh Cottage\, 1958\nBuxton Museum and Art Gallery\, Buxton\nArt that shines a spotlight on a time when communities and artists were affected by war and persecution is on show at Buxton Museum and Art Gallery. \nBetween Two Worlds explores the early to mid-20th century when governments sought to impose Western society and religion\, depriving communities of their cultural identity. \nIn the turmoil of war artists were persecuted\, interned and displaced. They faced discrimination and prejudice when not conforming on religious beliefs\, racism or sexuality. \nBetween Two Worlds explores the art created during this tumultuous period featuring work by John Minton\, Fred Uhlman\, Josef Herman and Ben Enwonwu. It draws exhibits from Derbyshire County Council’s collection\, such as the bequest of Arto Funduklian\, the son of Armenian émigrés\, including work by Marc Chagall\, Duncan Grant and Wyndham Lewis.

SUMMARY:Refuge and Renewal: Migration and British Art
DESCRIPTION:Heinz Koppel (1919-1980)\, Sari\, 1959. Tempera and oil on canvas\, 153x102cm\, private collection\nMOMA\, Machynlleth\nThis major touring exhibition\, curated by Dr Peter Wakelin\, is a timely exploration of the impact of artist refugees on art in Britain\, taking a perspective across the last 150 years. \nThe migration of creative individuals and groups has always been a source of innovation and cultural cross-fertilisation. This exhibition’s main focus is the crucial influence of émigrés who came from eastern and central Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. It explores how they were perceived by their peers in Britain and the extent to which their influence excited or inspired new art. \nExhibited artists include Joan Eardley\, Naum Gabo\, Humberto Gatica-Leyton\, Mona Hatoum\, Barbara Hepworth\, Josef Herman\, Samira Kitman\, Josef Koudelka\, Hanaa Malallah\, Ben Nicholson\, Camille Pissarro\, Zory Shahrokhi\, Kurt Schwitters and Walid Siti. It looks back to the temporary exile of refugees from the First World War and forward to the present\, when the reception of refugees and their contributions to British life are more contentious than ever. \nMany of the artists present extraordinary and deeply moving stories of escape from dispossession\, persecution\, torture\, intellectual oppression and war. The welcome for foreign artists has not always been positive and has included critical hostility\, financial difficulties\, personal tragedy and even internment\, yet they have often exerted a remarkably direct influence on British contemporaries. \nA substantial book by Peter Wakelin\, published by Sansom & Co. will accompany the exhibition.
