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 Freuds’ War draws on previously unpublished family archives and photographs\, including excerpts from Sigmund’s diary\, to give an insight into the renowned family’s life in both pre-war Vienna and WWII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:Carry Gorney: ‘Send me a Parcel with a Hundred Lovely Things’
DESCRIPTION:In her memoir Send me a Parcel with a Hundred Lovely Things\, Carry Gorney considers how her own life was shaped by her refugee antecedents’ experience of displacement and reinvention – ordinary people caught up in extraordinary times. The book includes extracts from her parents’ letters\, revealing a historic resentment and suspicion of refugees and a unique picture of the internment camps on the Isle of Man. \nThe latter will form the focus of this online event\, which will comprise a dramatised reading by two professional actors of some of these moving extracts. \nIn Carry’s own words: “working over many years as an artist\, film maker\, writer and psychotherapist. I have used creative arts to create and enhance communities by linking lives. My goal has always been to strengthen the threads which connect us across beliefs\, across ethnicity and across time.” \nFor more information about Carry and her work\, see Carry Gorney: Writer and Artist \nThis event is held in partnership with Jewish Renaissance magazine. \nTo book\, click here. \nImage: Send Me A Parcel With A Hundred Lovely Things\, bookcover (detail)

SUMMARY:Bauer & Seiber: Remarkable Parents & Their Artistic Circles
DESCRIPTION:György Buday\, Lilla\, woodcut\nTalk\nZoom Event organised by Cambridge Szeged Society \nJulia Seiber Boyd \n“Much is written about Mátyás Seiber by musicologists\, but I knew by age of 5\, that I was not going to be a musician\, he was just my father. He said virtually nothing about his early life – so I have had to put much of that together and find documents and records. These had all been donated to the British Library in the 1980-90. He was killed when I was 11 so this has been a voyage of discovery in many ways. \n2020 marks the 60th Anniversary of his death\, and although covid-19 destroyed many plans for that\, it has still been marked by the Royal College of Music – broadcast with help from the Hungarian Cultural Centre as part of the Insiders Outsiders Festival in November 2020. This looked at the wide span of his musical output – from Liszt Academy\, to Frankfurt as Professor of Jazz\, to London and establishing his reputation as the best teacher of composition. \nIn 1946\, in London\, he married my mother\, (Lilla Bauer)\, a dancer with the Modern Dance Ballet Joöss & then lecturer at Goldsmith’s College\, London. She survived until she was 99 and told me rather more about her upbringing and my architect grandfather. Her life in the 1930s was pretty colourful – travels with the company of Kurt Joöss & choreographer Rudolf Laban\, her long relationship with wood cut artist György Buday\, ending in 1938 – and her move to London. They never met again\, but ended up living less than 10 miles apart. \nIn 2019\, quite by accident I discovered the British Museum held 2 folders of Buday’s work. On examination these included 14 portraits of his muse\, Lilla Bauer – on and off stage from 1933-38. Their lives were far from ordinary & provide good subject matter for talks & further research.” \nTo register for this event\, email Rowland or Szylvia \n

SUMMARY:Rock the Cradle: the lost journal of art therapist Marie Paneth
DESCRIPTION:The lost journal of art therapist Marie Paneth\nOnline Talk \nTrevor Avery\, director of The Lake District Holocaust Project will give a talk about the first book to be published under the Second Generation imprint\, Rock the Cradle by Austrian-born art therapist Marie Paneth. \nRock the Cradle is a rare eye witness account – written in 1947\, but only recently re-discovered – of what life was like both at the Calgarth Estate near Windermere\, home to some three hundred Holocaust survivor children\, and for a small group of young women Holocaust survivors who lived in a hostel in London after the war. Helping to rebuild their shattered lives through art\, Paneth writes movingly about the daily challenges she faced every day to try and help them come to terms with the terrible atrocities they had endured. \nTrevor will be joined by Henry Hochland\, co-founder of Second Generation Publishing\, and the session will be chaired by Monica Bohm-Duchen\, initiator and director of Insiders/Outsiders. \nThis event is held in partnership with the Association of Jewish Refugees. \nTo book\, click here.

SUMMARY:The Fashion Revolution: From Berlin to London

SUMMARY:The Missing: The True Story of My Family in World War II - Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:The Wiener Holocaust Library\, London\nBy turns charming\, shocking and heart-breaking\, this is the true story of Michael Rosen’s search for his relatives who “went missing” during the Second World War – told through prose\, poetry\, maps\, and pictures. When Michael was growing up\, stories often hung in the air about his great-uncles: one was a clock-mender and the other a dentist. They were there before the war\, he would say\, and weren’t after. \nOver many years\, Michael tried to find out exactly what happened: he interviewed family members\, scoured the internet\, pored over books and traveled to America and France. The story he uncovered was one of terrible persecution – and it has inspired his poetry for years since. Here\, poems old and new are balanced against an immensely readable narrative; both an extraordinary account and a powerful tool for talking to children about the Holocaust. \nMichael will be in conversation with the Library’s Senior Curator and Head of Education\, Dr Barbara Warnock.

SUMMARY:William Feaver on the Lives of Lucian Freud
DESCRIPTION:The London Library\, St James’s Square\, London\nIn partnership with The London Library and Jewish Book Week\, renowned art critic\, William Feaver\, discusses the first volume of his landmark new work of biography of one of the most important artists of the twentieth century. \nThough ferociously private\, Lucian Freud spoke most weeks for many years to Feaver – his close confidante and collaborator – about painting and the art world\, but also about his life and loves. The result is a definitive\, electrifying biography\, shot through with Freud’s own words. In the first of two volumes\, Feaver traces a brilliant and passionate young man’s coming of age: his childhood in Weimar Berlin through art school and the Merchant Navy\, his post-war adventures in Paris and Greece\, and his return to Soho\, where he consorted with aristocracy\, violent criminals and muses from Greta Garbo to Margot Fonteyn. \nDoors and drinks: 6.45pm \nTalk: 7pm \nWilliam Feaver was art critic for the Observer for 23 years\, as well as working extensively as a painter\, curator. He is on the Academic Board of the Royal Drawing School where he also currently tutors. He curated Lucian Freud’s 2002 retrospective at Tate Britain in 2002\, and the 2012 exhibition of Freud’s drawings in London and New York. \nJewish Book Week is an annual international literary festival\, held in London\, which brings together writers and speakers from the worlds of history\, journalism\, philosophy\, science\, art\, music\, poetry and fiction in a celebration of ideas. The 2020 festival will run from 29 February to 8 March. \nFounded in 1841\, The London Library is one of the world’s leading literary institutions. Our collection contains over one million books and periodicals dating from the 1700s to the present day\, most of which can be browsed and borrowed by members. A unique literary oasis in the heart of London\, we are a home for anyone who loves the written word.

SUMMARY:Book Talk: A Small Dark Quiet
DESCRIPTION:Wiener Library\, Bloomsbury\, London\nMiranda Gold in conversation with Catherine Taylor \nTime:  6:30-8pm \nMiranda Gold​ will be discussing her haunting novel\, A Small Dark Quiet​\, with ​writer\, critic and former deputy director of English PEN​\, Catherine Taylor​. \nHailed as a ‘Great Jewish Book’ by Jewish Book Week\, Gold’s second novel is a story of loss\, migration and the search for belonging. Set in London in 1945\, ​A Small Dark Quiet ​is ‘challenging and beautifully written’\, a story of unresolved grief and intangible loss\, exploring how trauma\, both preverbal and intergenerational\, collapses the boundaries between past and present. \n“A bold attempt to portray the greyness of growing up without roots or identity\, cast adrift in an uncomprehending and uncertain world.” Caroline Moorhead\, Times Literary Supplement \nMiranda’s first novel\, ​Starlings​\, published by Karnac in December 2016\, reaches back through three generations to explore how the impact of untold stories about the Holocaust ricochets down the years. Sue Gaisford described Starlings in The Tablet as “a strange\, sad\, original and rather brilliant first novel\, illumined with flashes of glorious writing and profound insight.” \nAbout the speakers:\nMiranda Gold ​is a writer based in London. Before turning her focus to fiction\, Miranda took the Soho Theatre Course for young writers\, where her play\, ​Lucky Deck​\, was selected for development and performance. ​A Small Dark Quiet ​is her second novel. \nCatherine Taylor​ will be chairing this event. ​Catherine is a freelance critic\, writer and editor . She was formerly deputy director of English PEN and publisher at the Folio Society and has been a judge on a number of literary prizes including the Jewish Quarterly-Wingate Prize\, Guardian First Book Award and European Union Prize for Literature\, and most recently the Republic of Consciousness Prize for Small Presses. She is currently working on ​The Stirrings\,​ a cultural memoir of Sheffield in the 1970s and 80s​. \n

SUMMARY:Recollections of Hans Keller
DESCRIPTION:Hans Keller\, drawing by Milein Cosman\nWigmore Hall\, Marylebone\, London\nRecollections of Hans Keller \n  \n2019 sees the centenary of the birth of the remarkable musician\, writer\, broadcaster\, critic\, teacher\, psychologist and football enthusiast Hans Keller\, who was a central figure in British musical life from the 1940s to the 1980s. \n  \nProgramme: \n11:00 am Who is Hans Keller? by Dr Alison Garnham & Panel Discussion  \nHans Keller’s biographer Alison Garnham gives an introductory lecture\, followed by a panel discussion chaired by Keller’s friend and long-term colleague Julian Hogg. Panel includes Jane Gillie\, Christopher Hailey\, Bayan Northcott and Hugh Wood. \n£10 \n2.30 pm Music workshop based on Hans Keller’s analysis of Mozart K421  \nIn the late 1950s Hans Keller devised a wordless form of musical analysis to demonstrate the ‘unity of contrasting themes’ within a single work. He composed fifteen such ‘functional analyses’. \nUsing Keller’s detailed analysis of the piece\, students from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama work with Levon Chilingirian and Keller’s literary executor Christopher Wintle on Mozart’s D minor quartet from the set dedicated to Haydn. \n£10 \n6:00 pm Film Screening: The Keller Instinct   \nA rare screening of a documentary film first shown on Channel 4 in 1986 that offers a personal view of Hans Keller at the end of his life and includes commentary from many distinguished musicians\, presented by the clarinettist Anton Weinberg\, friend and pupil of Keller. The film has been specially re-mastered for the centenary\, and Anton Weinberg will introduce this special screening. \n£5 \n7:30 pm Elias String Quartet \nIn 1945\, a chance hearing of Britten’s new opera Peter Grimes set the young Hans Keller on a new path as a writer on music. One of his first articles was the controversial ‘Britten and Mozart’\, outlining striking similarities in the two composers’ creative characters. In tonight’s concert\, Britten’s second quartet\, written shortly after the premiere of Grimes\, is heard alongside Mozart’s quartet in D minor\, K.421\, Keller’s analysis of which features in today’s music workshop. After the interval\, the Elias Quartet will play one of Beethoven’s last and most searching contributions to the medium\, the quartet in B flat\, Op.130\, on which Keller wrote and lectured many times in his later years. \nWolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791)\nString Quartet in D minor K421\nBenjamin Britten (1913-1976)\nString Quartet No. 2 in C Op. 36 \nINTERVAL \nLudwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)\nString Quartet in B flat Op. 130 with Grosse Fuge Op. 133 \nA work by a contemporary composer Keller consistently championed – Britten’s lucid Second Quartet of 1945 – is heard between the second of Mozart’s quartets dedicated to Haydn and one of Beethoven’s last and most searching contributions to the medium £18-£40 \n  \nThis event is part of a series celebrating Hans Keller’s centenary: see Hans Keller 100
