SUMMARY:Hybrid Exhibition Talk – Dedication in Sculpture: The Story of Naomi Blake FRSS
DESCRIPTION:This event is organised as part of the Fred Kormis: Sculpting the Twentieth Century event series at The Wiener Holocaust Library\n \nIn partnership with Insiders/Outsiders. \nNaomi Blake (nee Zisi Dum) was born in 1924 in Mukacevo\, Czechoslovakia to a large Jewish family within a thriving Jewish population. After enduring Auschwitz and the loss of many family members\, sculpture became a positive means of expression. She studied art at the Hornsey School of Art and became a Fellow of the Royal Society of British Sculptors. \nAs her work developed into abstract and semi-figurative pieces\, she sought to promote understanding between faiths. To date more than 50 works stand in many places of worship and public spaces such as around the UK and overseas\, such as\, Bristol Cathedral\, Norwich Cathedral\, St. Botolph’s Church\, Leeds Synagogue\, Great Ormond St. Hospital\, Fitzroy Square and Tel Aviv University. \nNaomi’s daughter\, Anita will introduce you to Naomi’s sculpture\, which stands determinedly to help keep alive the legacy of the six million slaughtered Jews\, as well as promoting Naomi’s vision for a more tolerant society and her hopes for the future. \nAnita will be speaking on behalf of Generation 2 Generation\, a charity that enables descendants of Holocaust survivors to tell their family stories. \nAbout the Speaker: \nAnita Peleg is a University Lecturer and National Teaching Fellow with a doctorate specialising in Business Ethics. She has also carried out significant research into the Holocaust and published two books about her mother\, Naomi Blake\, a sculptor and survivor of Auschwitz.  She is Chair of Trustees and a speaker for Generation 2 Generation\, a charity that enables descendants of Holocaust survivors tell their family stories to a range of audiences.  In these roles she is able to apply her 20 years of teaching experience to educate about the Holocaust\, speaking at universities\, schools\, civic and religious institutions. \nVirtual Event guidelines: \n\nThe Library will send you a Zoom link and joining instructions via email prior to the event. Please check your junk email folders.\nPlease try and join 5 minutes before the event start time and we will let you into the room (do try and bear with us if this takes a few minutes).\nIf you would like to ask a question during the event\, please type your question into the chat function\, and we will endeavour to answer as many questions as possible during the Q&A.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Talk – A secret garden? Fred Kormis and the Memorial to Prisoners of War and Victims of Concentration Camps 1914-1945
DESCRIPTION:This event is organised as part of the Fred Kormis: Sculpting the Twentieth Century event series at The Wiener Holocaust Library\n \nHolocaust memory has become seemingly ubiquitous. New memorials or museums continue to be built\, the Holocaust is on the national education curricula in many countries far away from the sites of atrocity\, and tens of thousands of visitors flock to sites of former concentration or extermination camps or engage online with new forms of digital interpretation and commemoration. \nAt the same time a reappraisal of the history of Holocaust memorialisation by David Cesarani and others suggests that while there has certainly been significant growth in the material manifestations of Holocaust memory since the 1980s\, a focus on this has tended to overlook the memory work that went on during the Holocaust itself and in the decades immediately afterwards. One such marginalised memorial is the ‘prisoners of war and victims of concentration camps 1914-1945’ in Gladstone Park\, located in the suburb of Dollis Hill\, northwest London. \nConceived by renowned Jewish émigré sculptor Fred Kormis in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War and the Holocaust\, the memorial comprises five figures which take the viewer on a symbolic journey through the mental state of a prisoner of war or concentration camp victim. \nUnveiled in 1969\, a decade before the contentious campaign for what would eventually become the Hyde Park Holocaust memorial\, Kormis’s life and work illustrates how Holocaust memory has a history and a geography\, a geography understood as imaginative and well as material. \nThis talk will argue that reconstructing the biography of the Dollis Hill memorial as a site of creative and disruptive practice helps us understand the long\, complex\, and ongoing histories of Holocaust memorialisation in the UK\, including the soon to be completed Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre near the Houses of Parliament. \nAbout the Speaker \nDr Steven Cooke’s work focuses on cultural heritage and difficult histories. Over a thirty-year career in academia and professional practice\, he has authored over 40 scholarly publications\, including three highly commended books on the memory of war and genocide. After a PhD on Britain’s memorial landscapes of the Holocaust\, Steve spent five years in higher education in the UK\, first as a Research Fellow at the University of Stirling then as a Lecturer in Historical and Cultural Geography at the University of Hull. \nIn 2002\, he moved to Australia and worked in high level management positions in some of Victoria’s most significant places\, including the Melbourne Maritime Museum – home of Polly Woodside and the Shrine of Remembrance. In 2011 he returned to academia at Deakin University where he was an Associate Professor of Cultural Heritage and Museum Studies and served as course director for the Cultural Heritage and Museum Studies Programs. He was appointed as Expert to the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance Memorials and Museum Working Group by the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in 201. In 2024 Steve was appointed as CEO of the newly redeveloped Melbourne Holocaust Museum. He is an Associate Fellow of the Institute of Languages\, Cultures and Societies at the University of London. \n  \nBooking details here \n  \nImage: Fred Kormis’ memorial to Prisoners of War and Victims of Concentration Camps 1914 – 1945\, Gladstone Park\, London.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Talk – The woodcut print in Germany after WWI: Remorse\, redemption\, reparation
DESCRIPTION:This event is organised as part of the Fred Kormis: Sculpting the Twentieth Century event series at The Wiener Holocaust Library\n \nAs became all too familiar after the Holocaust\, the experience of suffering and inhumanity often proves to be unrepresentable. However\, in the aftermath of the First World War in Germany\, the opposite was the case. Here\, a flood of works on paper gave Expressionist artists and their bruised public an outlet for sentiments that ranged from an insistence on bearing witness to the horrors of trench warfare\, to grief and despair; and to a redemptive hope on the other side. \nBased on the extraordinary evidence of woodcut prints made by Fred Kormis as a prisoner of war in Siberia\, this lecture explores the context of printmaking around 1918. Highlighting the cathartic process of woodcut printing for fellow sculptors and graphic artists Ernst Barlach and Käthe Kollwitz\, it considers the qualities of this spare graphic medium that make it suited to the direct expression of existential extremes. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr Niccola Shearman is a historian of twentieth-century European art\, with a focus on Germany and Austria to 1945. She has taught a variety of undergraduate courses at The Courtauld Institute and at the University of Manchester and is a regular contributor to Courtauld Short Courses and to the V&A Academy. \nNiccola’s PhD (2018) concerned the intense wave of woodcut printmaking in the aftermath of the First World War in Germany. She has published articles on this subject and on related themes of art and empathy. Further research interests lie in the art of modernist Vienna\, and in the careers of Viennese exiles to the UK under the rise of Nazism. \n  \nBooking details here \n  \nImage: Christian Rohlfs\, The Prisoner\, (detail) woodcut print\, 1918

SUMMARY:Exhibition Talk – Insiders/Outsiders: Refugees from Nazi Europe and their Contribution to British Public Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:This event is organised as part of the Fred Kormis: Sculpting the Twentieth Century event series at The Wiener Holocaust Library\n \nJoin us for an illustrated lecture by London-based art historian Monica Bohm-Duchen about the émigré sculptors who created so many of the works still visible in public spaces throughout the UK\, whose names and life stories nevertheless remain too little examined. \nAmong the 300 or so visual artists who found sanctuary from Nazi persecution in the UK during the 1930s were a significant number of sculptors\, whose practice included commissions for diverse public spaces. While many of these works have become a taken-for-granted feature of the (mostly) urban landscape\, too little attention has been paid to those who created them. \nThis lecture will consider both their pre-and post-war careers\, paying particular attention to the circumstances of their arrival\, the challenges involved in their integration into British cultural life\, and the support networks that enabled them to establish themselves and ultimately to thrive here. \nSculptors to be discussed include Siegfried Charoux\, Peter László Peri\, Georg Ehrlich\, Franta Belsky\, Ernst Müller-Blensdorf\, Bernard Schottlander\, Oscar Nemon and Fred Kormis. \nThis event\, like several of the others in this series\, is held in partnership with Insiders/Outsiders. \nAbout the Speaker \nMonica Bohm-Duchen is an independent London-based writer\, lecturer and curator. The institutions she has worked for include the Courtauld Institute of Art\, Sotheby’s Institute of Art\, Tate\, the National Gallery and the Royal Academy of Arts. Her many publications include After Auschwitz: Responses to the Holocaust in Contemporary Art and Art and the Second World War. She is the Founding Director of Insiders/Outsiders\, an ongoing celebration of the contribution made by refugees from Nazism to British culture\, and editor of its companion volume\, Insiders/Outsiders: Refugees from Nazi Europe and their Contribution to British Visual Culture. \n  \nBooking details here \n  \nImage: Following the Leader (Memorial to the Children Killed in the Blitz)\, Peter László Peri.

SUMMARY:Sara Davidmann: My Name is Sara
DESCRIPTION:My name is Sara draws upon themes of family\, post-memory and the Holocaust. \nSara Davidmann discovered a family album of photographs and handwritten notes in German (never before translated)\, that tell a story her father was never able to tell – of the German Jewish side of her family. \nDavidmann’s father\, Manfred\, and his sister Susi survived the Holocaust by escaping from Berlin on the Kindertransport\, arriving in Britain in 1939. \nThe photo-album belonged to Davidmann’s aunt Susi. Early photographs show a family life of seaside holidays\, weddings and Berlin outings – a family Davidmann had not known existed. \nRealising that many of these people did not reappear in photographs taken after World War II she searched for traces of their lives. She uncovered over 130 pages of Nazi and official documents. These revealed that family members were deported to\, and murdered\, in concentration camps at Auschwitz and Theresienstadt. Others survived by escaping to Shanghai and France\, and by living hidden in Berlin with false documents. \nAt the same time – parallel to making these discoveries\, Davidmann used photography and video to make artworks using the material she was uncovering. Recognisable objects – hair\, family photographs and Nazi documents appear in the artworks – only to be disrupted by elements of fire and erasure. This is the first exhibition of this work.” \nAn artist’s book\, Mischling 1\, published by GOST\, accompanies the exhibition. Signed copies of Mischling 1 will be on sale during the exhibition. \nImage: Kinderfest I\, 2018. Chemigram made using a digital negative. Printed with the artist’s blood\, darkroom chemicals and bleach\, 30.5 x 40.5 cm. © Sara Davidmann \nEVENTS\nA series of talks and events will take place at Four Corners and on-line during the exhibition. These include an ‘In Conversation’ with the exhibition’s curator\, Katy Barron\, and a talk for the Insiders/Outsiders Festival with Monica Bohm-Duchen. \nPARTNERS\nThe exhibition is supported by a Philip Leverhulme Prize awarded by The Leverhulme Trust\, The Association of Jewish Refugees\, Cockayne Grants for the Arts\, and London College of Communication\, University of the Arts London.

SUMMARY:Generations: Portraits of Holocaust Survivors
DESCRIPTION:IWM London\, Lambeth Road\, London \nOver 50 contemporary portraits of Holocaust survivors and their families shine a light on the full lives they have lived and our collective responsibility to cherish their stories. \n“Packs a colossal emotional punch” – The Daily Telegraph \nIn partnership with the Royal Photographic Society (RPS)\, Jewish News\, the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust and Dangoor Education\, Generations: Portraits of Holocaust Survivors will showcase new works from 13 contemporary photographers\, all members and Fellows of RPS\, alongside photography by RPS patron\, Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge. \nDisplayed for the very first time\, these powerful photographs capture the special connections between Holocaust survivors and the younger generations of their families. \nThe systematic persecution of Europe’s Jews by the Nazis between 1933 and 1945 led to the mass extermination of 6 million lives. For those who survived\, its memory and impact were life changing. \nThrough a series of individual and family portraits\, the moving photographs in this exhibition present a group of survivors who made the UK their home after beginnings marked by unimaginable loss and trauma. While offering a space to remember and share their stories\, these portraits are a celebration of the rich lives they have lived and the special legacy which their children and grandchildren will carry into the future. \nPhotographers include Frederic Aranda\, Sian Bonnell\, Jillian Edelstein\, Arthur Edwards\, Anna Fox\, Joy Gregory\, Jane Hilton\, Tom Hunter\, Karen Knorr\, Carolyn Mendelsohn\, Simon Roberts\, Michelle Sank and Hannah Starkey.

SUMMARY:Becoming Gustav Metzger\, Uncovering the Early Years 1945-59
DESCRIPTION:Gustav Metzger\, Head of E. Royalton-Kisch\, 1950 Courtesy of The Gustav Metzger Foundation\n108A Boundary Rd\, Camden\, London NW8 0RH\nThe Ben Uri Research Unit (BURU)\, in partnership with The Gustav Metzger Foundation\, is delighted to announce Becoming Gustav Metzger: Uncovering the Early Years (1945-59). This is the first museum exhibition to examine the little-known formative years of refugee artist and activist Gustav Metzger (Nuremberg\, Germany 1926 – London\, England 2017). The sixth in BURU’s survey exhibitions highlighting the important contribution of Jewish and immigrant artists to British visual culture since 1900\, the exhibition showcases some 40 rarely seen drawings and paintings from this crucial early period – the majority never previously exhibited – together with related archival material. Highlights include Metzger’s Portrait of Frank Auerbach (c.1952) and the large expressionist oils The Dissolution of the City (1946) and Eroica\, Funeral March (1946)\, as well as early abstract works on board and cardboard\, and a Kodak box. Together they chart Metzger’s artistic journey from figuration to abstraction prior to the development of his later radical auto-destructive practice. \nBen Uri. Monday-Friday 10am-5pm (Thursdays late\, till 8pm)  \n\n\nBook your entry slots now to view the exhibition in the Gallery.

SUMMARY:Leave to Land: The Kitchener Camp Rescue\, 1939
DESCRIPTION:The Wiener Holocaust Library\, 29 Russell Square\, London\nThe Kitchener Camp has been largely forgotten today\, but in 1939 this derelict army base on the Kent coast became the scene of an extraordinary rescue in which 4\,000 men were saved from the Holocaust. The Leave to Land exhibition draws on materials collected for the Kitchener Camp Project (a unique online resource that brings together archival records and family treasures) and items from the Library’s own collections. \nDuring Kristallnacht in November 1938\, 25\,000 – 30\,000 Jewish men were arrested and incarcerated in concentration camps. They were subjected to starvation and torture\, and hundreds died or were killed. A condition of release from the camps was that the men had to undertake to leave Germany immediately. As country after country refused to take more refugees\, the Kitchener rescue began. It was funded and run by the same mainly Jewish aid organisations that funded and coordinated the Kindertransport and domestic service visa schemes. \nOfficial Kitchener records are scattered widely\, missing\, or have been destroyed\, but it is estimated that approximately 4\,000 men were rescued between February 1939 and the start of the Second World War in September 1939. The aim of the Kitchener Camp Project has been to rebuild this forgotten history by bringing together both scattered archival materials and the personal records kept for many decades by Kitchener refugees and their families.

SUMMARY:Leave to Land: The Kitchener Camp Rescue\, 1939
DESCRIPTION:The Wiener Holocaust Library\, 29 Russell Square\, London\nThe Kitchener Camp has been largely forgotten today\, but in 1939 this derelict army base on the Kent coast became the scene of an extraordinary rescue in which 4\,000 men were saved from the Holocaust. The Leave to Land exhibition draws on materials collected for the Kitchener Camp Project (a unique online resource that brings together archival records and family treasures) and items from the Library’s own collections. \nDuring Kristallnacht in November 1938\, 25\,000 – 30\,000 Jewish men were arrested and incarcerated in concentration camps. They were subjected to starvation and torture\, and hundreds died or were killed. A condition of release from the camps was that the men had to undertake to leave Germany immediately. As country after country refused to take more refugees\, the Kitchener rescue began. It was funded and run by the same mainly Jewish aid organisations that funded and coordinated the Kindertransport and domestic service visa schemes. \nOfficial Kitchener records are scattered widely\, missing\, or have been destroyed\, but it is estimated that approximately 4\,000 men were rescued between February 1939 and the start of the Second World War in September 1939. The aim of the Kitchener Camp Project has been to rebuild this forgotten history by bringing together both scattered archival materials and the personal records kept for many decades by Kitchener refugees and their families.
