SUMMARY:Airbrushed: The story of a family lost and found. A talk by Fanny Mills
DESCRIPTION:On Monday 27 June at 6pm\, playwright and author Fanny Mills will speak about the hidden story of her family which had always shadowed her life\, but which the Covid lockdown prompted her to research in detail.

An unravelling of the story of why my fascinating family\, Jewish on one side\, and aristocratic British on the other\, was completely blanked.” In telling the story\, Fanny explores themes of exile\, love and loss and asks why the talented but flawed women of her family were comprehensively written out of history. \nTo book\, click here. \nImage: Sketch of Fanny\, Emmanuel Levy

SUMMARY:Jussuf Abbo – re-constructing the life and work of a forgotten artist

In 1935\, however\, he was forced to flee Germany\, and moved to England\, where – despite a network of well-wishers and supporters – he struggled to re-establish his artistic career. He died in obscurity in London in 1953. Dorothea’s talk will focus on his London years\, shedding light on the networks and protagonists engaged in supporting the exiled artist. \nTo book\, click here. \nImage: Jussuf Abbo: Head of a Black Man\, c. 1939.Estate Jussuf Abbo\, Brighton/ England.

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’. Palestine-born sculptor Joseph M. Abbo (1888-1953) – who later renamed himself Jussuf Abbo – moved to Germany in 1911 and established himself as a well-known portrait sculptor and printmaker and an active member of the Berlin avant-garde artistic community. In the late 1930s he was forced to flee\, and settled in the UK\, where he died in unjustified obscurity. \nTo register\, click here. \nFollowers of Insiders/Outsiders will also be interested to know about the Fritz Ascher Society’s new online exhibition\, entitled Identity\, Art and Migration \nImage: Jussuf Abbo\, Ohne Titel\, 1921

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

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.

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: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: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:The Portuguese Schindler: The Life and Legacy of Aristides de Sousa Mendes
DESCRIPTION:Spies\, Lies and Secret Missions: The Unsung Jewish Heroes of World War Two\nStarting in late October\, Jewish Renaissance and Lyons Learning Project in association with Insiders/Outsiders are hosting a series of online events exploring the hugely significant and often surprising ways in which Jews – many of them former refugees from Nazism interned by the British in 1940 – contributed to the Allied war effort. \nAll the events will start at 8pm \n \nOn 16 December\, there will be a long overdue event to honour Portuguese diplomat Aristides de Sousa Mendes. Based in Bordeaux\, he defied the orders of Portuguese dictator Salazar to issue over 30\,000 visas to refugees attempting to escape Nazi-occupied Europe – in historian Yehuda Bauer’s words\, “perhaps the largest rescue action by a single individual during the Holocaust.” \nImage: Aristides and Angelina de Sousa Mendes with their first six children\, 1917 \n  \nFor further details and to book\, click here.\n
