SUMMARY:Engineer Refugees from Nazism in Britain and their innovations
DESCRIPTION:Image: British Advertisement for Metalastik\nCentre for Languages\, Culture and Communication \nSherfield Building Level 3\, South Kensington Campus Imperial College \nEngineering was done differently in Germany than in the UK. In Germany there was and still is\, a certain kudos to being addressed as ‘Herr Diplom Ingenieur’. The International organisations that engineer refugees belonged to helped them integrate into work and life more easily than other professional groups of refugees. They were therefore able to make a real contribution to the war effort with their inventions\, just one example the new bonded material supplied by Metalistik that prevented vibrations in planes and trains. And they were forward thinking\, bringing much more innovation to British life post-war. \nThis CLCC Research Seminar will be given by Anna Nyburg and delivered at the CLCC (in-person) and online simultaneously. Two ticket types are available: online (unlimited) and face-to-face (limited). Please select whether participating online or in-person to confirm your place. \nNB. Should COVID-19 restrictions mean that face-to-face delivery of the seminar is not possible\, the event will go ahead online only. \n  \nTo register for this free event\, book here. \n

SUMMARY:Transit by Anna Seghers: A New Translation
DESCRIPTION:Image: Bookcover\, Transit\nAn existential\, political\, literary thriller first published in 1944\, based partly on the author’s own experiences\, Transit by German Jewish Communist writer Anna Seghers explores the plight of the refugee with extraordinary compassion and insight. \nHaving escaped from a Nazi concentration camp in Germany and a work camp in Rouen\, the nameless narrator finds himself in the dusty seaport of Marseille. Along the way he was asked to deliver a letter to Weidel\, a writer in Paris whom he discovered had killed himself as the Nazis entered the city. Now he is in search of the dead man’s wife. He carries Weidel’s suitcase\, which contains an unfinished novel – and a letter securing Weidel a visa to escape France. \nAssuming the name Seidler – though the authorities think he is in fact Weidel – he goes from cafe to cafe looking for Marie\, who is in turn anxiously searching for her husband. As Seidler converses with refugees over pizza and wine\, their stories gradually break down his ennui\, bringing him a deeper awareness of the transitory world they inhabit as they wait and wait for that most precious of possessions: transit papers. \nPrizewinning author Stuart Evers\, who wrote the introduction to the new English edition\, in which he describes the novel as a ‘genuine\, fully fledged masterpiece of the twentieth century; one that remains just as terrifyingly relevant and truthful in the twenty-first’\, will be joined by Dr. Anthony Grenville\, an expert on German exile literature\, and (tbc) Christian Petzold\, director of the 2018 feature film Transit. \nTo book\, click here. \n

SUMMARY:Paul and Hilde Hamann: From Hamburg to Hampstead
DESCRIPTION:Paul Hamann was born in Hamburg in 1891\, trained as a sculptor and taught at the art school where his future wife Hilde was a student. They married in 1920 and joined the rural artist’s colony of Worpswede. He became interested in photography and film making and was inspired to develop a way of making accurate portraits in three dimensions by means of a lifemask. Moving to Berlin in the decadent late 20’s he enjoyed some celebrity when it became a fad for the glitterati of the period to have a lifemask made. Such was its popularity that in 1930 he was invited to London to produce portraits of people in high society.  \nIn 1933\, Paul and Hilde left Germany with their young daughter and moved to Paris. Five years later they moved again to London\, where\, having established themselves amidst the community of émigré artists that had gathered in the Hampstead area\, they felt themselves welcome. However in 1940 when the government decided to intern all so-called ‘enemy aliens’\, their lives were turned upside down.  \nAfter the war Paul and Hilde found a new studio in St John’s Wood where he continued to work\, teaching life classes while Hilde worked as a potter. He continued to sculpt until days before his death in 1973; his last figure of a sleeping woman adorns his grave in New Southgate Cemetery. \nTo book\, click here. \n

SUMMARY:Maurice Blik\, The Art of Survival
DESCRIPTION:Maurice Blik has lived in England ever since being liberated from Bergen-Belsen\, where he was taken as a small child from his birthplace\, Amsterdam. The ability to come to terms with this experience\, and to confront the face of (in)humanity that he had witnessed\, stayed silent in his life for some forty years. It finally found a voice in the late 1980s when he created a passionate series of horses’ heads; he later progressed to sculptures of the human figure in which the irrepressible joy of life and the destructive\, impenetrable shadow of existence co-exist to form a precarious unity. \nMaurice Blik has had a long career in art education\, teaching at all levels from primary to postgraduate. In 1991\, however\, he gave up teaching to work fulltime as a sculptor. In 1996 he was elected President of the Royal Society of British Sculptors\, and he is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. \nTo book\, click here \nFor further information about Maurice\, click here.
