SUMMARY:Alice Schwab: One Woman’s Emigration from Heilbronn to England
DESCRIPTION:Online Event \n\nBaroness Rabbi Julia Neuberger DBE will be in conversation with Joachim Schloer\, author of a new book about her redoubtable mother Alice (Liesel) Schwab. They will be joined by art historian Julia Weiner\, who as curator of the Ben Uri Gallery\, London Jewish Museum of Art in the 1990s\, came to know Liesel well. \nCarefully piecing together the personal letters of Alice ‘Liesel’ Schwab\, Escaping Nazi Germany tells the important story of one woman’s emigration from Heilbronn to England. From the decision to leave her family and emigrate alone\, to gaining her independence as a shop worker and surviving the Blitz\, to the reunion with her brother and parents in England and shared grief as they learn about the fate of family members who died in the Holocaust\, her story provides powerful insight into both the everyday realities of German-Jewish refugees in Britain and the ability of letters and life-writing to create transnational networks during times of trauma and separation. \nThroughout her life Liesel collected art\, befriended and supported artists\, and was closely involved with both the AJR and the Ben Uri. As her obituary in the July 2001 issue of AJR Information put it\, “A lifetime’s devotion to collecting and appreciating art led her to accepting the important position of AJR Information’s art correspondent\, from where she informed and guided her regular readers for a quarter century.” \nTo book\, click here. \n  \nThis event is held in partnership with the Association of Jewish Refugees.

SUMMARY:Bertha Bracey and the Quaker Rescuers
DESCRIPTION:Online Event \n\nFrom the rise of Hitler in 1933 to post-Holocaust Europe\, the Quakers played a huge role in saving Jewish lives. Leading the way was Bertha Bracey\, the head of the British Quakers. She was instrumental in setting up a school for Jewish refugee children in Surrey but her most important work was in the two years leading up to war. She and her Quaker team were among those who initiated the Kindertransport programme – the rescue of 10\,000 mainly Jewish children from Nazi Europe. \nDuring the war her Quakers provided homes\, hostels\, schools and parental support for the children who had come to Britain without their parents. After the war\, Bracey led a team to bring to safety children who had survived the Nazi death camps. Hers was a life of immense care devoted to the welfare of refugees. \nHolocaust educator\, researcher and writer Mike Levy tells her forgotten story and pays tribute to the role of the Quakers in saving so many lives. He will be joined by Cambridge-based Quaker David Dobson\, who will talk about this important topic and its wider context from a Quaker perspective. \nTo book\, click here. \nThis event is held in partnership with the Association of Jewish Refugees.

SUMMARY:The Black Book: The Britons on the Nazi Hitlist
DESCRIPTION:Online Event \n\nHistorian Sybil Oldfield will be in conversation with writer and journalist Caroline Moorehead about The Black Book\, her spinechilling but fascinating new publication. \nIn 1939\, the Gestapo created a list of names: the Britons whose removal would be the Nazis’ first priority in the event of a successful invasion. Who were they? What had they done to provoke Germany? For the first time\, this book uncovers their stories and reveals why the Nazis feared their influence. \nThose on the hitlist – more than half of them naturalised refugees – were many of Britain’s most gifted and humane inhabitants. Among their numbers we find the writers E.M.Forster and Virginia Woolf\, humanitarians and religious leaders\, scientists and artists\, the social reformers Margery Fry and Eleanor Rathbone MP\, the artists Jacob Epstein and Oscar Kokoschka. \nBy examining these targets of Nazi hatred\, Oldfield not only sheds light on the Gestapo worldview; she also movingly reveals a network of truly exemplary Britons: mavericks\, moral visionaries and unsung heroes. \n  \nTo book\, click here. \nThis event is held in partnership with the Association of Jewish Refugees. \n

SUMMARY:Torn Threads: Aspects of the Life and Work of Textile Designer Otti Berger
DESCRIPTION:Image: Portrait of Otti Berger / Photo: Lucia Moholy\, Dessau 1927–1928\nOnline Event \n\nJudith Raum\, a Berlin-based visual artist\, has been researching the legacy of textile designer Otti Berger (1898-1944) for several years. As a Yugoslav Jew\, Berger\, who had trained at the Bauhaus\, was forced to leave the German Reich\, where she had run her own textile studio in Berlin\, and unsuccessfully tried to make a new life in Great Britain. She returned to her home village of Zmajevac\, where although cut off from her professional networks\, she continued to work before being deported by the Nazis and murdered in Auschwitz in 1944.  \nConsequently\, her estate lies scattered in archives over the world. She was an outstanding designer\, both of experimental handweaves and of industrially produced fabrics. In Raum’s own words\, “There is an extraordinary strength in Berger’s designs for functional textiles such as upholstery or wall spanning materials: it lies in the combination of sensual riches and conceptual clarity. In addition\, Berger’s practice is characterized by resolutely balancing experimentation on a hand-loom with the necessities of industrial production processes.” \nIn her lecture- cum-performance\, originally drafted for the Harvard Art Museums\, Judith Raum contemplates the significance of a special kind of fabric in Berger’s oeuvre – net-like textiles – which allows her to draw a richly rhizomatic net of connections – among them\, to the work of Berger’s colleagues and industrial design history of the 1930s\, as well as to questions of authorship and recognition. \nJudith Raum will be joined by eminent UK-based design historian Tanya Harrod\, who will chair the event and say more about Otti Berger’s time in England.  \n  \nTo book\, click here.

SUMMARY:Music and the Émigré Photographers: Companions in Creativity
DESCRIPTION:Jacqueline du Pré by Laelia Goehr (detail)\nOnline Event \n\nIt is a striking fact that a significant number of the photographers who found refuge in Britain in the 1930s started their professional lives as musicians and/or made a speciality of taking pictures of musicians and composers\, many of whom were personal friends. This event will not only reveal a rich array of musical images\, many of them less well-known than they ought to be\, but also evoke the deeply cultured milieu in which so many refugees from Nazism lived\, both in their countries of origin and in the UK. \nPhotographic historian Amanda Hopkinson will talk about her mother\, photographer Gerti Deutsch as well as fellow Austrian-born photographer and friend of Gerti\, Lotte Meitner-Graf. Cellist and photographer Julia Crockatt\, daughter of composer Alexander Goehr\, and granddaughter of conductor and composer Walter Goehr\, will talk about her photographer grandmother Laelia Goehr\, and picture editor and researcher\, (formerly at Getty Images)\, Leon Meyer will consider the work of Czech-born photographer Erich Auerbach. \nThe event will be chaired by singer and teacher at the Royal College of Music\, Nobert Meyn\, founder of Ensemble Émigré and the Music\, Migration and Mobility project. \n  \nThis event is held in partnership with Music\, Migration and Mobility \n  \nTo book\, click here.
