SUMMARY:Jacques & Jacqueline Groag: Architect & Designer
DESCRIPTION:Isokon Gallery\, London\n  \nJacques Groag\, architect and furniture designer\, and Jacqueline Groag\, textile and pattern designer\, were two celebrated residents of the Isokon in the 1940s and early 1950s\, yet due to split residence between three countries\, which often did not communicate with each other in the 20th century\, the tremendous scope of work of these second-wave Viennese Modernists has only recently become known. \nThis exhibition covers their individual careers in Vienna and Czechoslovakia\, their lives as Jewish émigrés to London\, their collaborations\, and the couple’s unique contributions in Britain to postwar exhibitions\, monuments\, furniture and textile design. The Isokon exhibition describes the Groags’ remarkable range of contacts that included Josef Hoffman\, Ludwig Wittgenstein\, Adolf Loos and Trude Fleischmann\, while the display is copiously illustrated with many of their pre- and post-war works including commissions ranging from the Austrian Werkbundsiedlung\, to the Festival of Britain\, Gordon Russell\, Swan & Edgar\, Heal’s\, Colibri and Schiaparelli. Jacqueline\, some of whose original textiles are on show\, even created the fabric for a dress worn by the future Elizabeth II. \nThe book Two Hidden Figures of the Viennese Modern Movement by Ursula Prokop will be on sale at the Gallery throughout the season.

SUMMARY:Aleksander Żyw: Before & After
DESCRIPTION:Aleksander Żyw\, Self Portrait (detail)\, © c1935\nVirtual Gallery\nAleksander Żyw was born in Lida\, Poland in 1905 and trained at Warsaw School of Fine Arts in the early 1930s. He was living and working in Paris when the War broke out and he fought with the Polish Army in France before escaping to the UK where the Polish Army was reforming. He arrived in Scotland in 1940 and was appointed as an official war artist. He made Edinburgh his home until he moved permanently to Italy in the 1970s. During his time in Edinburgh he has a profound impact on the city with a number of notable exhibitions\, including three with The Scottish Gallery\, and later retrospectives organised by the Scottish Arts Council and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art. \nThis focused exhibition\, 25 years since the artist’s death\, offers a snapshot of a pivotal moment in Żyw’s artistic career. The group of work\, which date from the years 1934 – 1951 provide insight into a European painter who emerged from the devastation and suffering of war a radically altered artist\, and with a body of work strengthened by the experiences he had encountered. \nClick here to purchase the accompanying catalogue. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Toys and Modernism: Paul and Marjorie Abbatt Ltd.\, 1932-1973
DESCRIPTION:From 1932 to 1973\, Paul and Marjorie Abbatt Ltd. was the leading British company making and selling a range of toys and play equipment based on theories of child development and play. Teachers and shoppers looking for something brightly coloured\, versatile\, charming but robust and usually made of wood\, knew that their shop at 94\, Wimpole Street (designed by Ernö Goldfinger in 1936) or their mail-order catalogues would provide it.  \nInspired by what they saw in Austria\, Germany and Russia in 1931\, the Abbatts maintained contacts in these countries\, while providing opportunities for two Bauhaus refugees\, Franz Singer and Ludwig Hirschfeld-Mack. They also helped rescue the specialist in play for disabled children\, Milan Morgenstern (another Bauhäusler)\, his wife and children from Vienna in 1938\, helping them to find their feet and contribute to this field in Britain. \nAlan Powers’ book\, Abbatt Toys: Modern Toys for Modern Children is published by Design for Today and he has contributed to an exhibition on the same subject at Margaret Howell\, 34 Wigmore Street\, from 23 October to 11 November 2020. \nTo book\, click here. \nThis event is organized by Insiders/Outsiders. \n  \n\nThis event will be held on Zoom.

SUMMARY:The Painter's Hidden Masterpiece: the story of Johannes Matthaeus Koelz
DESCRIPTION:The Painter’s Hidden Masterpiece: the story of Johannes Matthaeus Koelz\, book cover (detail)\nSimon Lake\, former curator of the German Expressionist collection at Leicester Museum and Art Gallery\, will tell the story of a remarkable and until now almost entirely forgotten artist\, Johannes Matthaeus Koelz.  \nKoelz was a non-Jewish Bavarian realist painter\, born in 1895\, who fought in World War One and won the Iron Cross\, yet between 1930-37 secretly created a powerfully expressionist\, monumental anti-war and anti-fascist triptych called Thou Shalt Not Kill. Forced to dismember the work in 1937\, when facing imminent arrest\, he escaped Germany\, finally reaching England in 1939 with his family. It was only after her father’s death in 1971 that the artist’s daughter Ava Farrington began a search for the lost triptych and in 1998 that Simon first encountered the fragments of the painting that led to the publication of his book over twenty years later.  \nThe event will be chaired by art historian Monica Bohm-Duchen\, initiator and director of the Insiders/Outsiders Festival. \nTo book\, click here. \nThis event is organized by Insiders/Outsiders. \n  \n\nThis event will be held on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Refugee Nights
DESCRIPTION:© Rob Pinney\n17\, 24 November and I December (all at 7pm) will see a series of ‘Refugee Nights’\, a virtual festival created by the IWM Institute marking its launch in November 2020 and organised by the Imperial War Museum as part of Refugees\, a free season of exhibitions\, artistic commissions and immersive events taking place across IWM London and IWM North in 2020. \nFrom those risking everything to cross the seas\, to thousands who experienced the devastating fire in Lesbos’ Moria camp last month\, 2020 has seen the highest levels of displacement on record. With an estimated 79 million people forced to flee because of conflict\, media attention has gravitated back to the so-called refugee crisis. But how much do we really know about the experiences of those behind the headlines? Over three nights\, the festival will explore refugees’ stories throughout history in talks\, eyewitness accounts\, music and food\, and celebrate refugees’ rich and important cultural contributions to UK public life. \nEach night\, spaced over three weeks\, will be hosted by Hassan Akkad\, Syrian refugee and creator of BAFTA-winning documentary ‘Exodus’\, who will guide online viewers through the festival and share his moving story along the way. \nTo watch the festival please subscribe to the IWM YouTube Channel and stay tuned for updates on Refugee Nights. \n

SUMMARY:Refugee Nights
DESCRIPTION:© Rob Pinney\n17\, 24 November and I December (all at 7pm) will see a series of ‘Refugee Nights’\, a virtual festival created by the IWM Institute marking its launch in November 2020 and organised by the Imperial War Museum as part of Refugees\, a free season of exhibitions\, artistic commissions and immersive events taking place across IWM London and IWM North in 2020. \nFrom those risking everything to cross the seas\, to thousands who experienced the devastating fire in Lesbos’ Moria camp last month\, 2020 has seen the highest levels of displacement on record. With an estimated 79 million people forced to flee because of conflict\, media attention has gravitated back to the so-called refugee crisis. But how much do we really know about the experiences of those behind the headlines? Over three nights\, the festival will explore refugees’ stories throughout history in talks\, eyewitness accounts\, music and food\, and celebrate refugees’ rich and important cultural contributions to UK public life. \nEach night\, spaced over three weeks\, will be hosted by Hassan Akkad\, Syrian refugee and creator of BAFTA-winning documentary ‘Exodus’\, who will guide online viewers through the festival and share his moving story along the way. \nTo watch the festival please subscribe to the IWM YouTube Channel and stay tuned for updates on Refugee Nights. \n

SUMMARY:Internment in Britain in 1940: Life and Art Behind the Wire
DESCRIPTION:Portrait of Wilhelm Hollitscher\, Hugo Dachinger\, 1940\nVirtual Book Launch\nThe Wiener Holocaust Library will host this special event in conjunction with the Ben Uri Research Unit \nTo register for the event\, please click here. \nThis year\, the 80th anniversary of the internment of ‘enemy aliens’ in Britain during the Second World War\, provides a key moment to reflect on the internment strategy. This book helps us to understand Churchill’s shameful policy to ‘collar the lot’ and is as relevant to today’s injustices as it is an account of the cruelty of the past. It brings alive the experience of internment by combining the creative responses of two friends: Wilhelm Hollitscher’s diary provides a vivid and fascinating account of daily life in the camp along with wider political comment\, while Hugo Dachinger staged exhibitions of his work in camp\, entitled Art Behind the Wire\, and painted several portraits of Hollitscher. Both men found being interned as an ‘enemy alien’ traumatic\, but were able to draw moral strength from the experience. \nThe Speakers
: David Glasser\, Chair\, Ben Uri Gallery and Museum (which owns Dachinger’s Portrait of Wilhelm Hollitscher) will chair the event and will be joined by Anthony Spiro\, President\, Wiener Holocaust Library (which holds the Hollitscher manuscript). \nAll three authors will join the panel:\nInes Newman\, Hollitscher’s granddaughter\, will talk about her grandfather and read from the diary\nProfessor Charmian Brinson\, Emeritus Professor of German\, Imperial College London\, will provide a background to the wider policy of internment\nRachel Dickson\, Ben Uri Research Unit\, will discuss the relationship between artist and sitter internees and the importance of exiled artists. \nThe presentations will be followed by a Q&A session.\nPlease do join us for this stimulating evening.
