SUMMARY:The Messels at War: German-Jewish Responses to Twentieth-Century Conflict
DESCRIPTION:In a special online talk to mark Remembrance Day\, John Hilary will look back at the contrasting experiences of German-Jewish immigrants in Britain during the two world wars. Told through the lives of the celebrated Messel family of Nymans\, of which John is a member\, the presentation will examine the waves of violence directed towards naturalised Germans in Britain during the First World War and the personal anguish they faced as they were called upon to disown their heritage. It will also explore the treatment of German Jews who came to Britain in the 1930s\, granted refuge in their flight from Nazi persecution but then rounded up and interned as enemy aliens. Drawing on the family’s artistic talents\, the Messels reacted to the horrors of war with a full range of creative responses that went far beyond the expected. \nJohn Hilary is an honorary professor at the University of Nottingham and a representative of the Messel family to the National Trust. His latest book\, From Refugees to Royalty: The Remarkable Story of the Messel Family of Nymans\, was published in 2021\, and he is currently researching the cultural history of German-Jewish art collectors in Britain during the Edwardian era. \nPLEASE NOTE \nInstead of the £25 RRP plus postage and packaging\, people attending this talk will be able to purchase a copy of John Hilary’s book at the special rate of £20 including p&p\, which equates to a 30% discount. Please contact us on insidersoutsiders2019@gmail.com if you’re interested in benefitting from this offer.

SUMMARY:Lucian Freud (1922-2011) Lunchtime Lecture: Freuds’ War
DESCRIPTION:Freud family\, 1898 (Front row: Sophie\, Anna and Ernst; middle row: Oliver and Martha\, plus Minna Bernays; back row: Martin and Sigmund)\nThursday 6 October at 1pm will see the first of a weekly series of events marking the centenary of the birth of celebrated artist\, who came to this country from Berlin with his immediate family in 1933. This first event is an online talk by historian Helen Fry\, based on her fascinating book Freud’s War; the second\, on Thursday 13 October at 2.30pm\, is an in-person guided tour of  the exhibition\, Lucian Freud: The Painter and his Family\, currently on at the Freud Museum\, London; the third\, on Thursday 20 October at 1pm\, an online talk by Elizabeth Lamle about Freud’s very early work and correspondence; the fourth\, on Thursday 27 Octoberat 2.30pm\, an in-person visit to the major Freud retrospective at the National Gallery\, preceded by an introductory lecture by art historian Monica Bohm-Duchen. \n\nLunchtime Lecture: Freuds’ War \nHistorian Dr Helen Fry charts the story of the Freud family following their departure from Austria as refugees during World War II. Despite his worldwide reputation as the father of modern psychology\, Sigmund Freud’s security in his native Vienna changed overnight when Hitler’s forces annexed Austria in 1938. It was after becoming refugees that the Freuds’ story took a fascinating turn. Following their dramatic escape from Austria\, Sigmund’s son Martin and grandson Walter enlisted in the British Forces. In 1943\, Walter volunteered for Special Operations Executive\, a secret British World War II organisation\, which sent him back to Austria to spy behind enemy lines. \nDr Fry has written over 25 books\, including Spymaster: The Man Who Saved MI6\, Churchill’s German Army\, and the bestselling The Walls Have Ears: The Greatest Intelligence Operation of WWII. Freuds’ War draws on previously unpublished family archives and photographs\, including excerpts from Sigmund’s diary\, to give an insight into the renowned family’s life in both pre-war Vienna and WWII Britain. \nThe series is organised jointly by Insiders/Outsiders\, Jewish Renaissance magazine and the Lyons Learning Project. \n  \nFor further details and to book\, click here. \nImage: Reflection with Two Children (Self-Portrait)\, detail\, 1965 © The Lucian Freud Archive

SUMMARY:Artists As Hybrids: A Talk by Stephen Duncan
DESCRIPTION:Image: Stephen Duncan\, Waiting for the Wind\, 1995\nStephen Duncan FRSS will be talking about his career as a sculptor in both the UK and Italy. Stephen is the son of poet Beata Duncan and grandson of the Weimar playwright Hans Rehfisch\, both born in Berlin and refugees from Germany in the 1930s. \nStephen trained at the University of the Arts\, London\, the Royal Academy of Arts\, London and the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome. However\, he began his career as an artist in his early teens when he turned his bedroom into a studio and became an assistant to several sculptors including Michael Werner and Gertrude Hermes. He will be talking about Michael Werner\, Willi Soukop and Riccardo Priulli Bon\, all of whom were refugees and émigrés in London and all of whom were interned as ‘enemy aliens’ in 1940. \nIn keeping with the themes of the Insiders/Outsiders project\, Stephen will be discussing the contribution these three ‘enemy aliens’ made to British culture and education by introducing the visual cultures of Germany\, Austria and Italy and how this gave rise to a ‘hybrid’ of influences on sculptors working in the UK after WW2. In looking at his own work Stephen will describe how he feels he is a product of a European tradition as much as of British sculpture and how Modernism in the UK and its success can be seen as emerging from these cross-cultural energies. \nTo book click here. \n  \nThis event is free\, but in order to help us continue our activities\, a donation of at least £5 per booking would be hugely appreciated.

SUMMARY:Jussuf Prince of Thebes – Re-constructing the life and work of a forgotten talent from Safed
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday 2 March at 5pm UK time\, as part of the US-based Fritz Ascher Society’s series of monthly Zoom lectures “Flight or Fight: Stories of Artists under Repression”\, Berlin-based art historian and curator Dorothea Schöne will give a talk entitled ‘Jussuf Prince of Thebes – Re-constructing the life and work of a forgotten talent from Safed’.

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.

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: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
