SUMMARY:Simon Parkin: The Island of Extraordinary Captives
DESCRIPTION:The police came for Peter Fleischmann in the early hours. It reminded the teenager of the Gestapo’s moonlit roundups that he had narrowly avoided at home in Berlin. Now having endured a perilous journey to reach England –– hiding from the rampaging Nazi thugs at his orphanage\, boarding a kinder transport to safety –– here the aspiring artist was on a ship bound for the Isle of Man\, suspected of being a Nazi spy. What had gone wrong? \nIn May 1940 faced with a country gripped by paranoia Prime Minister Winston Churchill ordered the internment of all German and Austrian citizens living in Britain. Most\, like Peter\, were refugees who had come to the country to escape Nazi oppression. Now they were imprisoned by the very country in which they had staked their trust. \nJoin British journalist and author Simon Parkin for a talk to coincide with the publication of his new book. Painstakingly researched from dozens of unpublished first-hand accounts and previously classified documents\, The Island of Extraordinary Captives: A True Story of an Artist\, a Spy and a Wartime Scandal tells the story of Hutchinson Camp in Douglas on the Isle of Man\, history’s most astonishing internment camp\, and of how a group of world-renowned artists\, musicians\, and academics came to be seen as enemy aliens. \nIt is the story of a battle between fear and compassion at a time of national crisis. It reveals how Britain’s treatment of refugees during the Second World War led to one of the nation’s most shameful missteps\, and how hope and creativity can flourish in even the most challenging circumstances. \nTo book\, click here. \nPLEASE NOTE: Simon’s book can be purchased online by those attending this talk at £4 off the cover price of £20.\n \nIMAGE: Book cover – The Island of Extraordinary Captives by Simon Parkin

SUMMARY:Europe Divided: Huguenot Refugee Art and Culture
DESCRIPTION:This richly illustrated new book by Tessa Murdoch focuses on the extraordinary international networks resulting from the diaspora of more than 200\,000 refugees who left France in the late 17th century to join communities already in exile spread far and wide. \nFirst-generation Huguenot refugees included hundreds of trained artists\, designers\, and craftsmen. Beyond the French borders\, they raised the quality of design and workshop practice\, passing on skills to their apprentices; sons\, godsons\, cousins\, and to successive generations\, who continued to dominate output in the luxury trades. \nAlthough silver and silks are the best-known fields with which Huguenot settlers are associated\, their significant contribution to architecture\, ceramics\, design\, clock and watchmaking\, engraving\, furniture\, woodwork\, sculpture\, portraiture\, and art education provides fascinating insight into the motivation and resolve of this highly skilled diaspora. Thanks to a sophisticated network of Huguenot merchants\, retailers\, and bankers who financed their production\, their wares reached a global market. \nTessa Murdoch is an independent art historian\, consultant and curator. Until last year she was Research Curator of the Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum\, having previously worked there for many years in the Furniture\, Sculpture\, Metalwork and Ceramics Collections\, and before that at the Museum of London. She is a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries\, and of the Idlewild Trust\, and advisor to the National Trust and the National Heritage Memorial Fund. In 2019 she was a Getty Rothschild Fellow\, and she is currently serving as Chair of the Board of the Huguenot Museum\, Rochester which will reopen in late May 2022. \nTo book\, click here \nImage: Book cover – Europe Divided: Huguenot Refugee Art and Culture by Tessa Murdoch

SUMMARY:Making\, Tracing: A Journey Back From England to the Polish Stetl
DESCRIPTION:David Jones\, Dark Noise\, 2014\nTalk by David Jones about his discovery that his creative work in clay & installation has become a medium for expressing his Jewish heritage \nA Conversation with Ceramic Artist David Jones\nDavid Jones’ mother was born in Germany\, and escaped the fate of her parents in the murder camps\, by leaving on the Kindertransport to the UK. He was aware from an early age of that history\, but it did not intrude on his life in the latter half of the 20th Century. It has only been in recent years that this fact has been pressing hard on his awareness. \nDavid’s ceramic work has always featured cuts\, cracks and distortions\, that subsequently only started to make sense to him with such an interpretation. Grenzerfahrung was the name (meaning “Borderline experience”) that he gave to the liminal conditions between a conscious understanding and intuitive feeling for meaning in the work: the burnt\, blackened clay surfaces that could be summoned to stand for the destinies of his ancestors and relatives; the appalling synergy between the potter’s kiln and the ovens of the Holocaust. \nHe will also discuss a range of positive outcomes that have evolved through working collaboratively with groups in Germany and Latvia that focus on meeting\, hospitality and rapprochement. \nThe session will be chaired by art historian Julia Weiner\, who co-curated Shaping Ceramics\, an exhibition held at the Jewish Museum\, London in 2016-17\, which included David’s work. \nTo book\, click here.
