SUMMARY:Engineer Refugees from Nazism in Britain and their innovations
DESCRIPTION:Image: British Advertisement for Metalastik\nCentre for Languages\, Culture and Communication \nSherfield Building Level 3\, South Kensington Campus Imperial College \nEngineering was done differently in Germany than in the UK. In Germany there was and still is\, a certain kudos to being addressed as ‘Herr Diplom Ingenieur’. The International organisations that engineer refugees belonged to helped them integrate into work and life more easily than other professional groups of refugees. They were therefore able to make a real contribution to the war effort with their inventions\, just one example the new bonded material supplied by Metalistik that prevented vibrations in planes and trains. And they were forward thinking\, bringing much more innovation to British life post-war. \nThis CLCC Research Seminar will be given by Anna Nyburg and delivered at the CLCC (in-person) and online simultaneously. Two ticket types are available: online (unlimited) and face-to-face (limited). Please select whether participating online or in-person to confirm your place. \nNB. Should COVID-19 restrictions mean that face-to-face delivery of the seminar is not possible\, the event will go ahead online only. \n  \nTo register for this free event\, book here. \n

SUMMARY:The Portuguese Schindler: The Life and Legacy of Aristides de Sousa Mendes
DESCRIPTION:Spies\, Lies and Secret Missions: The Unsung Jewish Heroes of World War Two\nStarting in late October\, Jewish Renaissance and Lyons Learning Project in association with Insiders/Outsiders are hosting a series of online events exploring the hugely significant and often surprising ways in which Jews – many of them former refugees from Nazism interned by the British in 1940 – contributed to the Allied war effort. \nAll the events will start at 8pm \n \nOn 16 December\, there will be a long overdue event to honour Portuguese diplomat Aristides de Sousa Mendes. Based in Bordeaux\, he defied the orders of Portuguese dictator Salazar to issue over 30\,000 visas to refugees attempting to escape Nazi-occupied Europe – in historian Yehuda Bauer’s words\, “perhaps the largest rescue action by a single individual during the Holocaust.” \nImage: Aristides and Angelina de Sousa Mendes with their first six children\, 1917 \n  \nFor further details and to book\, click here.\n

SUMMARY:Tribute to Kurt Jooss (1901-79)
DESCRIPTION:Kurt Jooss trained as a dancer with Rudolf Laban in the early 1920s and then worked as choreographer for the avant-garde Neue Tanzbühne. After studying ballet in Vienna and Paris\, Jooss returned to Germany and established a school and a company there\, also becoming ballet master at the Essen Opera House. \nIn 1932 he created his best-known work\, the powerfully prophetic dance-drama The Green Table\, which won first prize in an international choreographic competition in Paris. His company became known as Ballets Jooss and made a world tour during 1933 and 1934.  \nBecause Adolf Hitler had come to power (the Nazis had ordered Jooss to dismiss all the Jews associated with his company and he refused)\, Jooss did not return to Germany but with Sigurd Leeder – at the invitation of Leonard and Dorothy Elmhirst – made his headquarters at Dartington Hall in Devon. \nHe returned to Essen in 1949\, as a British citizen\, and reopened his school there. Widely credited with being the founder of Tanztheater\, Jooss greatly expanded the technical and thematic possibilities of theatrical dance and exerted a profound influence on other dancer-choreographers such as Pina Bausch. \nTaking part in this special event\, which marks the 120th anniversary of Jooss’ birth\, are dance historians Marion Kant\, Laure Guilbert and Patricia Stockmann\, Julia Seiber Boyd\, daughter of Lilla Bauer\, an important member of the Ballets Jooss\, and Lucie Conrad\, Kurt Jooss’s granddaughter. \nTo book\, click here.

SUMMARY:Tribute to Ernst Neuschul
DESCRIPTION:Ernst Neuschul\, Untitled (The Rainbow)\, c1940\nA talk by art historian Simon Lake about the rich and tumultuous life of émigré painter Ernst Neuschul. \nErnst Neuschul was born in 1895 in Aussig\, in what is now the Czech Republic and studied art in Prague and Vienna. Moving to Krakow during WWI to avoid conscription\, he graduated there in 1919\, subsequently dividing his time between Prague and Berlin. He met and later married a nightclub dancer of Dutch-Javanese heritage\, Lucia Lindemann\, and between 1922 and 1926 the couple performed Javanese dance across Europe under the stage names Yoga-Taro and Takka Takka. \nIn Berlin Neuschul moved away from the powerful expressionism of his earlier work and began painting under the influence of the New Objectivity (Neue Sachlichkeit) movement. In 1926 he joined the strongly anti-fascist Novembergruppe. His work during the 1920s took a more hard-edged and socially committed look at day-to-day life under the Weimar Republic\, yet also embodied an innate compassion\, whether depicting unemployed industrial workers or the ‘demimonde’. \nIn 1932 Neuschul became Professor of Fine Arts at Berlin’s Academy of Fine Art and was also elected chairman of the Novembergruppe. In 1933\, however\, an exhibition of his paintings was closed down by the Nazis. Because of his Jewish birth and radical political opinions Neuschul also lost his teaching post and in March 1933 he returned to Aussig. Invited to Moscow in 1935\, he painted a double portrait of Stalin and Dimitroff and the steelworkers of Elektrostal. In 1936 he left the country\, thus escaping Stalin’s anti-Jewish purges. In 1937 an exhibition he held in Aussig was vandalised by Nazi toughs\, and in 1939 he emigrated with his second wife Christl and son to Great Britain\, on the last train to leave Czechoslovakia. \nNeuschul died in London in 1968\, yet to this day remains far too-little known in this country. \nTo book\, click here \n

SUMMARY:Virtual Tour - Modernist Hampstead
DESCRIPTION:Online Tour\n\n\nIn this virtual tour discover 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. \nTo book\, click here. \n“Very interesting and well delivered virtual tour of Modernist architecture in Hampstead\, drawing on influences of designs from bygone eras. Advantage of virtual tour can cover large area in shorter time than actually walking and can zig zig!! \nGreat photos and expert knowledge of speaker.” \nTrip Advisor July 2020 \n  \nThis is a live virtual tour hosted via Zoom video conferencing where your guide will give an illustrated presentation of the tour route with an accompanying talk. There will be opportunities for questions and interaction both during and after the virtual tour. \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Innocence and Experience: Childhood and the 1930s Refugees
DESCRIPTION:Image: from Wolf Suschitzky and Liselotte Frankl\, That Baby. The Story of Peter and his new Brother. Adprint\, 1946 © Estate of Wolf Suschitzky.\nInsiders/Outsiders\, in partnership with the Research Centre for German and Austrian Exile Studies\, University of London\, is hosting a free online conference called ‘Innocence and Experience: Childhood and the 1930s Refugees’. \nChild psychology and therapy were disciplines developed in pre-war Germany and Austria\, and Britain benefitted hugely from the refugees’ expertise in the area.

SUMMARY:Walking Tour - Modernist Hampstead
DESCRIPTION:Meet in the forecourt outside Wagamama\, 58-62\, Heath Street\, London\, NW3 1EN \n  \n  \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 which were famous in the 1930s for enabling Bauhaus designers to live here to escape the Nazi regime. \nPlease note that this is the last day that the Isokon Gallery is open for the season. They restrict numbers in at a time. There is also a special display about Agatha Christie another Isokon resident. \nClocks change today too! \nIn line with current social distancing requirements we have adopted certain mitigation practices regarding our walking tours. Before booking on a walking tour it is important that you read the full details of our COVID-19 mitigation practices on the link below\, so you know what to expect and what we expect of you: \nhttp://footprintsoflondon.com/2020/08/important-customer-guidance-for-attending-walking-tours/

SUMMARY:Jennifer Langer: The Search
DESCRIPTION:Dr Jennifer Langer in conversation with fellow poet Dr Aviva Dautch about her debut poetry collection The Search & about Exiled Writers Ink \nThe Search by Jennifer Langer is an exploration of the poet’s complex sense of identity as the daughter of German Jewish refugees who fled Nazi Germany for Britain. Crucially\, her sensibility of otherness is dialogically engaged with contemporary refugees and the oppressed. Born of the history of loss and of refugee roots\, the poet dreams of a lost world attempting to snatch at fragments and striving to create a narrative yet she is also compelled to confront current tensions arising from the diverse facets of this identity.  \nJennifer is founding director of Exiled Writers Ink which brings together established and developing migrant and refugee writers from repressive regimes and war-torn situations. Established in 2000\, it is an ever-expanding organisation that provides a space for exiled writers to be heard\, develops and promotes their creative literary expression\, and advocates human rights through literature and literary activism. \nTo book\, click here.

SUMMARY:From Internee to Art Collector: Tribute to Ruth Borchard
DESCRIPTION:Born near Hamburg in 1910\, the writer Ruth Borchard came as a German-Jewish refugee to Britain in 1938. As an ‘enemy alien’ in wartime she was imprisoned first in Holloway Prison\, then interned in Rushen women’s camp on the Isle of Man. Her fictionalised memoir We Are Strangers Here: An Enemy Alien in Prison in 1940\, only published after her death\, provides a rare insight into life as a refugee in Holloway Prison. \nBetween 1958 and 1971 she amassed a superb collection of over 100 self-portraits by British-based artists\, well-known and less well-known\, which provides a fascinating overview of British portraiture in the mid-twentieth century \nAfter her death in 2000\, the collection was transferred to a charitable trust to become the Original Ruth Borchard Collection\, under the custodianship of Piano Nobile. In 2011 a biennial self-portrait prize was set up in her name\, with a selection of submitted works acquired for the Next Generation Collection. For more information\, click here. \nThe film being screened was made by Unity House for Sky Arts in 2020\, to coincide with an exhibition of works from the Ruth Borchard Collection being shown on the Isle of Man. \nIt will be followed by a Q&A with\, we hope\, members of Ruth’s family as well as others intimately familiar with her life story and achievements. \nThis event is held in partnership with Jewish Renaissance magazine. \nTo book\, click here. \nImage: Michael Noakes\, Ruth Borchard (detail)\, 1958\, oil on canvas\, 52 x 42 cm.

SUMMARY:Carry Gorney: ‘Send me a Parcel with a Hundred Lovely Things’
DESCRIPTION:In her memoir Send me a Parcel with a Hundred Lovely Things\, Carry Gorney considers how her own life was shaped by her refugee antecedents’ experience of displacement and reinvention – ordinary people caught up in extraordinary times. The book includes extracts from her parents’ letters\, revealing a historic resentment and suspicion of refugees and a unique picture of the internment camps on the Isle of Man. \nThe latter will form the focus of this online event\, which will comprise a dramatised reading by two professional actors of some of these moving extracts. \nIn Carry’s own words: “working over many years as an artist\, film maker\, writer and psychotherapist. I have used creative arts to create and enhance communities by linking lives. My goal has always been to strengthen the threads which connect us across beliefs\, across ethnicity and across time.” \nFor more information about Carry and her work\, see Carry Gorney: Writer and Artist \nThis event is held in partnership with Jewish Renaissance magazine. \nTo book\, click here. \nImage: Send Me A Parcel With A Hundred Lovely Things\, bookcover (detail)
