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. Your webcam will not be seen during this event.\n\nThis event is free\, although registration via the link below is required. Please note that our free events are run by staff volunteers.
