SUMMARY:Making Theatre in Exile
DESCRIPTION:The Hampstead Jazz Club: Duke of Hamilton Pub\, London\nDelving into a suitcase full of sketches\, songs and letters\, the theatre group [Foreign Affairs] brings to life the little-known story of the Laterndl Theatre in Hampstead\, established by a group of exiled actors and writers from Nazi-occupied Austria during the Second World War. Rekindling the Viennese tradition of political cabaret\, they reflect on their new surroundings and hopes for the future and bring a beacon of light to the 30\,000-strong traumatised refugee community. The Laterndl received wide critical acclaim and soon came to symbolise the community’s resistance to Nazi terror and assertion of an independent Austrian identity and culture. \n‘Making Theatre in Exile’ re-discovers the Laterndl Theatre through the work of the Research Centre for German and Austrian Exile Studies on the Martin Miller and Hannah Norbert-Miller Archive. \nPerformed in the original German and English. Doors open 20:00. \nThis performance will also take place at 18:30–19:30 on Thursday 14 November which needs to be booked separately. \nAttendance is free\, but seating is limited and advance online booking is essential.  Seats are not numbered\, and are allocated on a first come\, first served basis. Due to licensing restrictions\, this performance is not open to under-16s.

SUMMARY:Summit Dance Theatre & Ali Curtis-Jones
DESCRIPTION:Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance\, Old Royal Naval College\, London\nSummit Dance Theatre and choreographer Alison Curtis‑Jones give two works by Rudolf Laban a contemporary twist and new lease of life.

SUMMARY:Inspiration & Processes: Janet Haig
DESCRIPTION:Hampstead School Of Art\nJanet Haig is a Hampstead-based ceramicist\, whose unique hand-crafted vessels and stoneware torsos have been shown in many galleries and featured in boutiques and magazines. Her work can be found in private and public collections\, including that of the Jewish Museum\, London. Characterised by their densely encrusted and corroded surfaces and organic forms\, they are clearly inspired by the many and varied wonders of nature. \nJanet Haig was born in Poland\, and experienced the hardships of the war years in a Siberian prison camp with her mother\, later discovering that their closest family had perished in the Holocaust. She studied painting in Australia and settled in the UK in 1962. \nHaig has revealed that her first inspiration might go back as far as those harsh days in Siberia: “My mother was able to take one object with her [to Siberia] and she suddenly saw this little pot (I still have it in my possession)\, which she grabbed hold of because\, as I was a baby\, she thought it would be useful to warm things up. It’s enamel\, blue on the outside\, white on the inside and maybe that has had some kind of inspiration on my pots.” \nA Ceramic Conversation – a talk amongst the ceramic works \nThursday 5th December: 7.00pm \nJoin Janet Haig\, as she discusses her work.

SUMMARY:The Promise
DESCRIPTION:JW3\, London\nScreening of a new film about artist and holocaust survivor Roman Halter\, followed by a Q&A. \n  \n“Promise me” said the dying grandfather to the 12 year old boy “that when you survive you will tell the whole world what was done to us.” The film ‘The Promise’ is Roman Halter’s answer to his pleading grandfather. Working in collaboration with the award winning film makers Fred Scott ‘The Promise’ is an extraordinary story: of commitment to a promise\, of personal courage and of the power of art to convey a deeper understanding of history and human loss. Roman survived the Lodz ghetto\, Auschwitz and Stutthof camps and after the war he settled in London and became a prominent artist whose works are displayed in London’s major galleries including the Tate and the National Gallery. \nHe used his paintings\, drawings and stained glass work to convey the terrors of the Nazi ‘Final Solution.’ Roman Halter died in 2012. This film is his extraordinary story and an enduring testament to the evils of anti-semitism and totalitarianism. \nQ&A with Ardyn Halter (Roman’s son)\, Fred Scott and Rabbi Jonathan Wittenberg.

She is followed by Dr David Haney\, author of When Modern was Green\, 2010\, who considers the afterlife of the Trade Union School at Bernau by the second Bauhaus director\, Hannes Meyer\, and Professor Frederic Schwartz of UCL who asks ‘What was the Bauhaus?’ – a question that becomes more difficult to answer the more we hear about it. \nThe final session introduces five lesser-known Bauhäusler in Britain: Jilly Allenby on her grandfather\, the sculptor Johannes Ilmari Auerbach; Marcus Williamson on René Halkett\, painter\, designer broadcaster and lyricist for the punk band Bauhaus; John Allan on the graphic designer George Adams (Teltscher)\, Rachel Dickson on puppeteer Werner ‘Jacky’ Jackson and Danyel Gilgan on his grandfather\, the maker and teacher Wilfred Franks. \n  \n\nTwentieth Century Society Members: £40; Non-members: £50; Students with valid ID: £25 \nTickets include refreshments with sandwich lunch and post-conference drinks. \nBooking \n9.30am – 7.00pm

SUMMARY:Hollow Triumph: CineClub
DESCRIPTION:Austrian Cultural Forum London\nBased on Murray Forbes’ story of the same title\, the film follows John Muller (Paul Henreid) on his escape from mobsters out of the frying pan into the fire. The protagonist’s cynical view of human blindness provides for quite an ironic and surprising ending to this true noir. Paul Henreid plays the intelligent\, somewhat arrogant John Muller with bravoure. \nUS 1948\, 83 minutes\, directed by Steve Sekely and Paul Henreid (uncredited)\, starring Paul Henreid

SUMMARY:Ernst Schoen – the life of an anti-fascist radio pioneer
DESCRIPTION:Still Life with Head\, Willi Baumeister\, 1930\nBishopsgate Institute\, London\nTaking the form of a live radio presentation\, this evening will highlight the fascinating life of Ernst Schoen (1884–1960)\, radio practitioner\, writer\, composer and lifelong anti-fascist\, as presented by Dr Esther Leslie and Dr Sam Dolbear. \nErnst Schoen\, the director of Radio Frankfurt\, was arrested in 1934 for crimes against the Third Reich\, which included the protection and encouragement of Jewish and Socialist colleagues. During his time as a radio producer and radio station manager in Weimar Germany\, Schoen had developed\, in collaboration with his school friend Walter Benjamin and others such as Bertolt Brecht\, Hanns Eisler and Anton von Webern\, a radical sound and radio practice aimed at the dissemination of communist principles through avant-garde techniques. \nEscaping to London\, Schoen continued his work as a radical socialist activist and writer from exile. Having studied music with Ferruccio Busoni and Edgard Varèse\, Schoen was also a composer and some of his beautiful 12-tone compositions will be presented separately at a free lunchtime concert on 20 March 2020 in the Great Hall at Bishopsgate Institute.

SUMMARY:A Ceramic Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Hampstead School Of Art\nA talk amongst the ceramic works. \nJoin Janet Haig as she discusses her work with the Principal\, sharing insight into her work\, her practice and how she constructs ideas using techniques and personal responses\, to create series of works from figurative to vessels. This talk provides an opportunity to understand the life of a maker\, to ask questions and share your views. \nJanet Haig is a Hampstead-based ceramicist\, whose unique hand-crafted vessels and stoneware torsos have been shown in many galleries and featured in boutiques and magazines. Her work can be found in private and public collections\, including that of the Jewish Museum\, London. Characterised by their densely encrusted and corroded surfaces and organic forms\, they are clearly inspired by the many and varied wonders of nature. \nJanet Haig was born in Poland\, and experienced the hardships of the war years in a Siberian prison camp with her mother\, later discovering that their closest family had perished in the Holocaust. She studied painting in Australia and settled in the UK in 1962. \nHaig has revealed that her first inspiration might go back as far as those harsh days in Siberia: “My mother was able to take one object with her [to Siberia] and she suddenly saw this little pot (I still have it in my possession)\, which she grabbed hold of because\, as I was a baby\, she thought it would be useful to warm things up. It’s enamel\, blue on the outside\, white on the inside and maybe that has had some kind of inspiration on my pots.”

SUMMARY:Refuge and Renewal: Migration and British Art
DESCRIPTION:Heinz Koppel (1919-1980)\, Sari\, 1959. Tempera and oil on canvas\, 153x102cm\, private collection\nRoyal West of England Academy\nThis major touring exhibition\, curated by Dr Peter Wakelin\, is a timely exploration of the impact of artist refugees on art in Britain\, taking a perspective across the last 150 years. \nThe migration of creative individuals and groups has always been a source of innovation and cultural cross-fertilisation. This exhibition’s main focus is the crucial influence of émigrés who came from eastern and central Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. It explores how they were perceived by their peers in Britain and the extent to which their influence excited or inspired new art. \nExhibited artists include Joan Eardley\, Naum Gabo\, Humberto Gatica-Leyton\, Mona Hatoum\, Barbara Hepworth\, Josef Herman\, Samira Kitman\, Josef Koudelka\, Hanaa Malallah\, Ben Nicholson\, Camille Pissarro\, Zory Shahrokhi\, Kurt Schwitters and Walid Siti. It looks back to the temporary exile of refugees from the First World War and forward to the present\, when the reception of refugees and their contributions to British life are more contentious than ever. \nMany of the artists present extraordinary and deeply moving stories of escape from dispossession\, persecution\, torture\, intellectual oppression and war. The welcome for foreign artists has not always been positive and has included critical hostility\, financial difficulties\, personal tragedy and even internment\, yet they have often exerted a remarkably direct influence on British contemporaries. \nA substantial book by Peter Wakelin\, published by Sansom & Co. will accompany the exhibition.

SUMMARY:Talk: Judith Kerr
DESCRIPTION:Talk: with David Herman \nThe recent death of the famous children’s writer\, Judith Kerr\, an old family friend\, received an enormous amount of attention. Many of her best-known books have been loved by generations of young children. Tributes pointed out that she was a German Jewish refugee. What tended to be missing\, though\, was a careful reading of her famous autobiographical trilogy about coming to England as a refugee and what this tells us about the experience of refugees from Nazism\, in particular the darker side of the refugee experience.David Herman is the son of two refugees from central Europe and has written widely on the experience and impact of Jewish refugees. \nSHABBAT: 3.45pm \nAt Rabbi Wittenberg’s home

SUMMARY:Child Survivors' Drawings of the Genocide in Darfur
DESCRIPTION:At the top of the drawing\, the first stage of the attacks is shown: Sudanese government air forces bombarded the towns and villages of non-Arab Darfuris. The bombs were sometimes incendiary\, sometimes full of nails. This drawing\, by a young boy\, graphically depicts all aspects of the attack that he experienced\nReading Room\, The Wiener Holocaust Library\, London\nThis exhibition features drawings by child survivors of the genocide and ethnic cleansing perpetrated by Sudanese government forces and the Janjaweed militia against non-Arab Darfuri people since 2003. \nThe drawings have been donated to The Wiener Holocaust Library by Waging Peace\, a human rights organisation that campaigns against genocide and abuses in Sudan. \nThe drawings provide important evidence about the nature of the atrocities committed in Darfur\, produced by some of the youngest victims. \nThe Collection of Evidence by Waging Peace \nIn 2007\, Waging Peace’s anonymous researcher gathered evidence and testimonies from Darfuri refugees in refugee camps in Chad. The researcher initially collected testimonies from adults\, who told her that their children had witnessed the atrocities committed by Sudanese government forces and Janjaweed militia. The researcher gave paper and pencils to children aged between 6 and 18 and asked them to record what their dreams for the future were and what their strongest memory was. \nThe majority of the children drew pictures of attacks on their villages. \nIn 2009\, the International Criminal Court accepted the five hundred drawings collected by Waging Peace as contextual evidence of the crimes committed in Darfur. The pattern that emerges from these drawings corroborates other evidence about the attacks in Darfur and contradicts the account given by the Government of Sudan to the ICC. \nWaging Peace donated the documents to The Wiener Library in 2014. In 2019\, The Library accepted a further donation of drawings by children who have faced persecution by Sudanese government forces in the Nuba Mountains in southern Sudan\, along with petitions produced in refugee camps in Darfur calling for the prosecution of the perpetrators of human rights violations\, and eyewitness testimonies from adults who experienced the violence in Darfur collected in refugee camps in Chad. \n

SUMMARY:From Heartfield to Memes: Lessons from History
DESCRIPTION:John Heartfield\, Krieg und Leichen – Die letzte Hoffnung der Reichen\, 1932\nFour Corners gallery\, London\nCritical photomontage seems to be making a comeback as meme. Made from reconfigured and recombined photographs (among other things)\, memes can be posted\, circulated\, and re-circulated in the digital age with a speed\, ease\, and reach that radical artists such as John Heartfield could only dream of a century ago. That digital facility is accompanied by certain conceptual facility\, however\, whose political message and tactics often verge on the simplistic\, the vulgar\, the ephemeral. This talk will explore some of the crucial complexities of Heartfield’s popular\, mass-circulation photomontages that illuminate how much they still have to teach us in the present\, volatile\, technologically-savvy moment. \nSabine Kriebel is the author of ‘Revolutionary Beauty: the radical photomontages of John Heartfield’ and Lecturer in the History of Art at University College Cork. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Holocaust Memorial Day – Songs of Arrival
DESCRIPTION:Henry Watson Music Library\, Manchester Central Library\nAs part of Holocaust Memorial Day\, Manchester Jewish Museum’s song-writing group will present an initial performance of songs inspired by the moving stories of Jewish Refugees arriving in Cheetham in the 1930s and 1940s. We have been working with baritone singer Peter Brathwaite (originally from Cheetham) Israeli opera composer Na’ama Zisser and community composer and saxophonist Joe Steele for the past 6 months to bring to life the real life stories within our oral history collection\, highlighting the experience of those arriving in Cheetham having fled their home countries. \nYou will be able to hear these songs in different areas of the Henry Watson Music Library on the first floor of Manchester Central Library\, alongside some objects brought to Manchester by Jewish refugees. This musical installation will feature songs composed by the museum’s song-writing group\, ESOL students from Abraham Moss Adult Learning Centre and the poignant song ‘Lovesick’ by Na’ama Zisser performed by Peter Brathwaite. Come and experience a different way to honour the sacrifices made and the building of new lives in Cheetham. \nThe event is free and you are welcome to drop in from 4pm-5pm. A longer version of this work\, featuring new songs by Na’ama Zisser will be performed as part of our Festival of Belonging in March.

SUMMARY:Talk: Albert Reuss\, Artist and Refugee
DESCRIPTION:Cathedral Chapter House\, Truro Cathedral\, Cornwall\nSusan Soyinka\, Reuss’s biographer\, in conversation with Revd John Halkes\, who was a personal friend of the artist. \nTo commemorate the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz on 27 January 1945\, Truro Cathedral will be holding an exhibition\, from 9 January to 7 February\, of the paintings of Albert Reuss\, an Austrian Jewish refugee. \nBorn in Vienna in 1889\, he fled to England in 1938 to escape Nazi persecution\, losing family\, possessions and his reputation as an artist. He first settled in St Mawes on the invitation of Cornishman and Quaker\, John Sturge Stephens\, who had helped Reuss and his wife Rosa to escape from Vienna. From 1948 until his death in 1975\, the couple lived in Mousehole. Reuss continued to work as an artist in England\, but his style changed dramatically\, reflecting the trauma he had suffered. This change in his work is evident in the exhibition. \nTo mark Holocaust Memorial Day\, the Cathedral will hold a special service of Evensong at 5.30pm. \nThe entry fee includes a glass of wine or juice served from 7.00pm. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Belonging and not Belonging
DESCRIPTION:Forman Lecture Theatre\, Royal Northern College of Music\, Manchester\nTo coincide with Holocaust Memorial Day 2020\, Monica Bohm-Duchen\, the initiator and Creative Director of the Insiders/Outsiders Festival\, will reflect upon her experience of working on the project\, and Norbert Meyn\, a professional tenor and the initiator of Singing a Song in a Foreign Land will give a talk-cum-recital about his on-going research on émigré musicians and composers. \nDr Norbert Meyn (Royal College of Music) is the Principal Investigator of the new AHRC funded research project Music\, Migration and Mobility which explores the legacy of migrant musicians from Nazi Europe in Britain through practical music making\, archival research and mapping. Norbert will perform a couple of songs by émigré composers Peter Gellhorn (1912-2004) and Karl Rankl (1898-1968) and discuss the challenges in contextualising\, researching and marketing this repertoire today. He will also give an outline of the repertoire written by these emigres in Britain and share his experience from performing this at the RCM and with his professional group\, Ensemble Émigré. \nMonica Bohm-Duchen is a London-based art historian and the initiator and Creative Director of the year-long\, nationwide Insiders/Outsiders Festival\, which celebrates the contribution made to British culture by refugees from Nazi-dominated Europe in a wide range of different media. Monica will explain her motives for undertaking this ambitious project and – since the festival officially ends in March 2020 – consider the ways in which it has been received and the longer-term impact she hopes it will have on keeping the all-important concept of cultural cross-fertilisation firmly in the public eye. \n4.15pm \nFree
