SUMMARY:Insiders/Outsiders Talk: Monica Bohm-Duchen
DESCRIPTION:Five Leaves Bookshop\, Nottingham\nTalk: Refugees from the Nazis and their contribution to British visual culture \nInsiders/Outsiders is a UK-wide arts festival which runs throughout 2019 and which examines the extraordinarily rich and pervasive contribution of refugees from Nazi-dominated Europe to the visual culture\, art education and art-world structures of the United Kingdom. In every field\, émigrés arriving from Europe in the 1930s – supported by a small number of like-minded individuals already resident in the UK – introduced a professionalism\, internationalism and bold avant-gardism to a British art world not known for these attributes. \nAt a time when the issue of immigration is much debated\, this illustrated talk serves as a reminder of the importance of cultural cross-fertilization and of the deep\, long-lasting and wide-ranging contribution that refugees make to British life. \nMonica Bohm-Duchen is the creative director of the Insiders Outsiders Festival and is an art historian. \nTickets: £3 on the door\, including refreshments. Please let us know you are coming by emailing Five Leaves \nFive Leaves Bookshop is organising several events in Nottingham as part of the festival.

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:Elman Poole Concert: Egon Wellesz and other Emigrés in 1930s Britain
DESCRIPTION:Portrait of Egon Wellesz © Lincoln College\nOakeshott Room\, Lincoln College\, Oxford\nEnsemble ÉMIGRÉ \nNorbert Meyn\, tenor\, Christopher Gould\, piano and Ingrid Pearson\, clarinet \nEgon Wellesz was one of the most renowned composers of ballet\, opera and chamber music in Austria up to the 1930s\, when he had to emigrate to Britain. He established himself also as a musicologist\, taking up a position at Lincoln College\, Oxford\, where he would remain as a Fellow for the rest of his life.

This concert will feature some of his works\, written before and after his emigration\, alongside those of fellow emigrées Ferdinand Rauter\, Karl Rankl\, Hans Gál and Robert Kahn\, who all have recently featured in the research and performance project ‘Singing a Song in a Foreign Land’ at the Royal College of Music. The concert will be followed by a short panel discussion and an exhibition of documents from the Lincoln College archive. \n  \n\n5.15pm \nThe concert will be followed by a wine reception with a small exposition of objects and documents about Egon Wellesz from the archive of Lincoln College.

SUMMARY:'Jankel Adler: A "Degenerate" Artist in Britain\, 1940-49'
DESCRIPTION:Jankel Adler\, Mother and Child. Private Collection © DACS 2019\nBen Uri Gallery\, London\nMarking the 70th anniversary of the death of Polish-Jewish émigré Jankel Adler (1895-1949) BURU’s exhibition explores his nine-year British exile. Adler fled Nazi Germany in 1933\, was declared ‘degenerate’ in his absence\, and arrived in Scotland (via Paris) in 1940. Influenced by Picasso and Klee\, in both Glasgow\, and later London\, he introduced remarkable stylistic and technical innovations\, particularly in printmaking\, to the next generation of British artists. Drawn primarily from private collections\, this exhibition provides a much-needed opportunity to re-assess a still neglected artist\, now considered one of the most important European modernists working in mid-century Britain. \nAlthough under-appreciated in Britain both during his lifetime and in the years immediately following his death\, the major 2018 retrospective\, Jankel Adler und die Avantgarde: Chagall\, Dix\, Klee\, Picasso\, at the Von der Heydt Museum\, Wuppertal\, Germany\, has consolidated Adler’s reputation across Europe. Ben Uri’s exhibition provides an opportunity to re-assess an artist now considered to be one of the most important European modernists working in mid-century Britain. \n  \n\nThe exhibition will be open 11-5 pm Monday to Sunday from 3 June – 16 June\nIt will then be open for the next four Mondays 11-5 pm on 17\, 24 June\, 1 and 8 July \n

SUMMARY:Refugees\, Newcomers\, Citizens: Migration Stories from Picture Post\, 1938-56
DESCRIPTION:West Indian immigrants arriving at Victoria Station\, London. Picture Post\, ‘Thirty Thousand Colour Problems’\, 1956 (© Haywood Magee/Picture Post/Getty Images Hulton Archive)\nPeltz Gallery\, Birkbeck\, University of London\nThis exhibition brings together for the first time over sixty original prints by renowned émigré photographers Gerti Deutsch and Kurt Hutton\, together with Bert Hardy and Haywood Magee\, revealing Picture Post magazine’s stories of refugees and immigrants to Britain from the 1930s to the 1950s. Images focus on the Kindertransport and Windrush-era migrations\, as well as on lesser-known histories of wartime African-American women Red Cross volunteers\, and post-war child Holocaust survivors who found refuge in the Lake District. \nFounded in 1938 by Hungarian-Jewish refugee Stefan Lorant\, Picture Post magazine brought an innovative continental photojournalistic tradition to Britain\, selling over a million copies weekly. From the start it had an unashamedly anti-fascist editorial stance\, with a unique sensitivity to issues of displacement\, migration and ethnicity. Curated by Mike Berlin in collaboration with Amanda Hopkinson\, the exhibition juxtaposes different yet parallel stories of migration and settlement\, using original photographs generously loaned from the Getty Images Hulton Archive and is accompanied by a lively related events programme. \n

SUMMARY:Showcasing Art History: Britain ∩ Europe
DESCRIPTION:The Courtauld Institute of Art\, London\nEncounters in Art: Women Émigré Artists: Marie-Louise von Motesiczky\, Milein Cosman\, Else Meidne\n \nThis series investigates a particularly significant episode in the long history of British art’s relations with the Continent. These lectures will take a close and critical look at the experiences of the émigré artists who came to this country after Hitler’s accession to power in 1933\, examining not only their achievements and influence\, but also the challenges – not to say obstacles – they faced on arrival. \nThe series will open with an introductory lecture providing a broader cultural and political context for the lectures to follow. These will focus on the experiences of key individuals – John Heartfield\, Kurt Schwitters\, Oscar Kokoschka\, Ludwig Meidner and Marie-Louise von Motesiczky – and the issues raised within the study of mid-20th century British art by the reception of their disparate yet related practices. \n  \n\nTuesday Evening Lectures from 7 to 8 pm followed by Q&A and Drinks \nShowcasing Art History can only be booked by the term\, in this case all five summer term lectures\, not individually. \n  \n30 April Monica Bohm-Duchen: Refugees from Nazi Europe and their Contribution to British Visual Culture: Setting the Scene \n7 May Monica Bohm-Duchen: John Heartfield: Art and Politics in 1930s Britain \n14 May Professor Sarah Wilson: Kurt Schwitters in Britain \n21 May Dr Niccola Shearman: Ludwig Meidner and Oskar Kokoschka \n28 May Dr Ines Schlenker: Women Émigré Artists: Marie-Louise von Motesiczky\, Milein Cosman\, Else Meidne

SUMMARY:Modernist Hampstead Walk
DESCRIPTION:Meeting: Hampstead Tube Station\nDiscover the revolutionary Modernist homes and idealistic architecture built in Hampstead in the 1930s such as The Sun House by Maxwell Fry\, and 66 Frognal by Connell Ward and Lucas. Much of the architecture echoed design trends in Europe and the walk includes passing housing by the émigré architects Ernst Freud and Erno Goldfinger. Elements of eighteenth-century architectural design were also an influence for some architects. \nPassing some more recent examples and of course striking non modernist Hampstead buildings\, this walk will finish at the iconic and idealistic Isokon flats in Belsize Park. Here you can discover how the émigré designers accommodated here in 1930s\, were so important for Isokon. \nLed by Marilyn Greene \n\n11.00am-1.00pm

SUMMARY:What Does Woman Want?
DESCRIPTION:Freud Museum\, London\nThe Players: Elliot Adler\, Sarah Berry-Tschinkel (Author)\, Louise DeCosta (Creative Director)\, Lauren Friedman\, Susan Quinn (Lead Author) \nThe relation of psychoanalysis\, sexuality\, and femininity is complex and laden with controversy. From its inception\, psychoanalytic thought about female development was largely defined by men. Many of these first generation male analysts approached woman as a “dark continent” and femininity as a “mystery”. Freud himself puzzled with contradictory trains of thought.\nSabina Spielrein\, Anna Freud\, Lou Andreas-Salome\, and Marie Bonaparte were among the intimate circle of Freud’s Women who challenged the main pillars of the 19th/early 20th century patriarchal social order. \nThe story of their unique relationships with Freud\, the impact they had upon him as well as their personal struggles are presented as theatrical drama – in their own words based on exchanged correspondences. The inspiration for this play is the Freud Museum exhibition So this is the Strong Sex: Early Women Psychoanalysts (2018). \n\n7-9pm

SUMMARY:Dorothy Bohm: Colour Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Still Life\, Hampstead\, 1997 © Dorothy Bohm\nAvivson Gallery\, Highgate\nThe Avivson Gallery is pleased to announce its next exhibition\, a selection of small and exquisite colour prints\, many of them images never seen in public before\, by doyenne of British photography Dorothy Bohm (née Israelit)\, who was born in Königsberg\, East Prussia in 1924\, and sent to the safety of England in 1939\, where she has lived ever since. \nIntimate in scale and mainly domestic in subject-matter (still lifes predominate)\, these are lyrical\, poetic images that delight the eye. Unlike most of Dorothy’s photographs\, they are largely unpeopled\, yet even in inanimate objects\, a warm human presence is implicit. \nSome thirty C-type prints\, dating mostly from the 1990s\, will be included\, alongside a smaller selection of jewel-like polaroid images\, which marked Dorothy’s transition from monochrome to colour in the early 1980s. \n\nOpen: Wednesday Friday Saturday 12-6 and Thursday 12-8 \n

SUMMARY:Schwitters Spoken Loud and Softly: Florian Kaplick live performance
DESCRIPTION:Florian Kaplick – photo ©Paul Yates\nHatton Gallery\, Newcastle upon Tyne\nIn a special event to mark the closing of Heather Ross’ installation The Loud and the Soft Speakers\, musician and performer Florian Kaplick (the main protagonist in Ross’s installation) will give a live performance of Kurt Schwitter’s two most iconic works. This will include a performance of Schwitters’ seminal sound poem The Ursonate (approx 40 mins) and a new interpretation of his famous poem An Anna Blume\, now celebrating its centenary year. This poem will be heard within a ‘recital collage’ created by Kaplick which references the work of American author Paul Auster. In three novels Auster uses a female character by the name of ‘Anna Blume’ in the very same spelling as Schwitters’ heroine of 1919. Intrigued by this and stimulated by the musical qualities of Auster’s writing\, Kaplick collages together excerpts from Auster’s novels with Schwitters’ poem – read in various languages – to form a new 20 minute performance. Not to be missed this is a rare opportunity to experience these works live! \n  \n\n6-7pm\nDonations welcome\, free entry\nNo booking necessary

DESCRIPTION:New North London Synagogue\, London\nThis year on Yom Hashoah we remember the Holocaust through the experience and sculpture of Naomi Blake\, who through her abstract and semi figurative pieces\, sought to promote understanding between faiths. We will hear Naomi’s story and get an insight into her work through the eyes of Naomi’s daughter Anita (Nin) Peleg. We will also be introduced – through a recently produced film – to the powerful sculpture of Maurice Blik. Naomi’s protective\, nurturing and hopeful style\, together with Maurice’s strong\, defiant\, outward-reaching forms\, demonstrate contrasting but equally positive expressions of their experiences as survivors of the Holocaust. \n\n8pm
