SUMMARY:Maurice Blik Plasters: The Artist at Eighty
DESCRIPTION:Maurice Blik Plasters\nSculpt Gallery\, Gt. Braxted\, Essex\nAn exhibition of artist’s plasters of recent sculptures to celebrate the artist’s Eightieth Birthday. The exhibition will also include original sketches and limited edition etchings. Born in Amsterdam\, Holland in 1939 and having survived Bergen-Belsen concentration camp as a child\, Maurice Blik arrived in the UK aged seven with two surviving female members of his family. The ability to come to terms with this and to confront the face of humanity that he had witnessed\, stayed silent in him for some forty years until it found a voice in the passionate and exquisite sculpture he began to produce in the late 1980s.

SUMMARY:Hampstead in the 1930s – A Walking Tour + Visits
DESCRIPTION:Ernö Goldfinger: 2 Willow Road\, NW3\nMeet: Hampstead Underground Station\nLed by Monica Bohm-Duchen for Martin Randall Travel \n10am-c.5.30pm \n  \nAs the abundance of wall plaques in the area demonstrates\, visual artists have been drawn to the physical and cultural attractions of Hampstead since the late eighteenth century. This London day\, however\, concentrates on artistic life in Hampstead in the 1930s\, the period in which it occupied a unique place in the story of British art and architecture. This was in large measure due to the number of talented émigrés from Nazi-dominated Europe who found refuge here\, and the British individuals who welcomed and worked alongside them. \nAt Burgh House & Hampstead Museum\, a private view of selected items from the era and an introductory lecture set the scene. A walk through Frognal before lunch is testament to the pioneering work of modernist architects such as Maxwell Fry and Ernst Freud. In the afternoon\, we walk via Downshire Hill (home to Fred and Diana Uhlman\, Roland Penrose and Margaret Gardiner)\, to the Isokon Building in Lawn Road\, where by special arrangement we visit the former garage\, now a small gallery devoted to the colourful history of these flats\, whose tenants included Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer as well as Agatha Christie and a significant number of Communist spies. After taking a look at the Mall Studios\, home to what Herbert Read memorably described as a ‘gentle nest of artists’\, among them Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson\, and the building which was briefly home to Piet Mondrian\, the day ends with a visit to the modernist house that Hungarian-born Ernö Goldfinger built for himself nearby 2 Willow Road. \nMid-morning refreshments\, lunch and tea provided. \nBook this tour at Martin Randall Travel \n  \nSee also: Hampstead Walk (September) and George Adams – Bauhausler in Britain

SUMMARY:Sculpting After the Holocaust
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

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

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: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: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:Edith Tudor-Hart and Wolfgang Suschitzky
DESCRIPTION:Wolfgang Suschitzky\, Backyard\, Charing Cross Road 1936 © Wolfgang Suschitzky\nTate Britain\, London\nFollowing the rise of Fascism in Vienna in the 1930s\, brother and sister Edith Tudor-Hart (1908–73) and Wolfgang Suschitzky (1912–2016) found sanctuary in Britain\, where both became leading documentary photographers. Raised in an actively social democratic family of Jewish ancestry\, their images reflect the politics\, class structures and events of mid-twentieth century British life. Tudor-Hart’s subjects range from political protests in Vienna to initiatives for the working classes in late-1930s Britain. Suschitzky’s photographs focus on London as a varied\, vibrant city as its inhabitants lived through peace\, the Blitz and postwar celebrations. This display offers a rare opportunity to see a substantial group of photographs by brother and sister together.

DESCRIPTION:Renée Sintenis (1888-1965)\, Berlin\, c. 1929-1932. Sculptor and medalist © The Bernard Simon Estate\, Wiener Library Collections.\nThe Wiener Library\, Bloomsbury\, London\nThe Wiener Library’s summer 2019 exhibition showcases the remarkable work of German Jewish photographer Gerty (Gertrud) Simon\, and features many of her original prints from the 1920s and 1930s. Simon was a once-prominent photographer who captured many important political and artistic figures in Weimar Berlin\, including Kurt Weill\, Lotte Lenya\, Käthe Kollwitz\, Max Liebermann and Albert Einstein. In the 1930s\, as a refugee from Nazism in Britain\, Simon rapidly re-established her studio\, and portrayed many significant individuals there\, such as Sir Kenneth Clark\, Dame Peggy Ashcroft and Aneurin Bevan. \nA collection donated to The Wiener Library in 2016 contained hundreds of Gerty Simon’s original prints\, along with documentary evidence of her life and work. For the first time in eighty years\, the work of this pioneering photographer will be brought to public attention in this exhibition. \n  \n\n10.00am – 5.00pm
