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:Animated Visions: émigré film-makers in 1940s Britain
DESCRIPTION:Still from River of Steel\, directed by Peter Sachs\nThis session focuses on the distinctive work of German-born film animator and art director Peter Sachs (1912–1990) and the animation shorts of Cologne-born Peter Strausfeld (1910–1980)\, the latter directed and produced by the Austrian-born film-maker and manager of the pioneering Academy Cinema George Michael Hoellering (1897–1980).  \nRefugees from Nazi Europe\, they first met as internees on the Isle of Man. After their release\, each survived chiefly through animation shorts commissioned through the Ministry of Information who recognized the potential of animation for engaging UK audiences during the war years and after. We will explore their work and long-lasting contribution to animation and the wider world of British cinema.  \nProfessor Fran Lloyd (Kingston School of Art) will be in conversation with Jez Stewart\, Curator (Animation) at the BFI National Archive\, British Film Institute.  \nTo book\, click here. \nThis event is organized by Insiders/Outsiders. \n  \n\nThis event will be held on Zoom.

SUMMARY:“No way out”: The Ettrick\, Camp L and Camp N - Internment in Canada
DESCRIPTION:Camp L\, Quebec City\, Canada. Library and Archives Canada\nOn May 12\, 1940\, policemen knocked on doors all along the coast of Britain\, from Nairn to Hampshire. “Pack a suitcase and come with us\,” they ordered. The coastal area was now restricted. The internment of refugees had begun. Hunger\, filth\, dehumanizing inspections\, boredom\, and depression plagued them. For those doomed to a horrific journey on the HMT Ettrick\, it was that and more. The arrival in Canada\, first to Camp L and then Camp N (the ‘Kosher’ camp)\, did little to improve their plight.  \nDiaries\, documents\, and interviews at the Imperial War Museum—oral and written—as well as interviews with five survivors describe the intense hardships suffered by all and the spirit that helped to overcome them. The experience changed lives and\, as fate would have it\, created opportunities.  \nAs part of our series of talks marking the 80th anniversary of the British government’s internment of so-called ‘enemy aliens’ in 1940\, Nancy Greenspan\, author of Atomic Spy: The Dark Lives of Klaus Fuchs\, will discuss this still under-explored aspect of World War Two internment history. \nTo book\, click here. \nThis event is organized by Insiders/Outsiders. \n  \n\nThis event will be held on Zoom. Upon registering\, you will be sent a link to the Event in your confirmation email\, and reminders will be sent closer to the time. \nHow do I join a Zoom event?

Although you will be prompted to download the software once you have clicked on the link\, you do not need a Zoom account to attend an event.

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:Rudolf von Laban\, Reactionary Modernist
DESCRIPTION:The German Modern Dance aesthetic was formulated and choreographed by Rudolf von Laban\, with the help of his student Mary Wigman. Laban created a powerful and long-lasting international network of schools\, performance groups\, notation and therapy organisations. There is hardly a university in the UK and the US that hasn’t integrated part of Laban’s dance philosophy\, his terminology and his aesthetics into academic discourse. These are the commonly acknowledged facts and that is also where agreement ends. \nThere is no other comparable or equally powerful modern dance philosophy that covers all aspect of life with the same ambition\, with such far-reaching claims. Yet Laban\, like Wigman\, became an enthusiastic supporter of the Third Reich and both shaped dance politics and practices within the Nazi system.  \nHow can such a deeply problematic yet influential dance philosophy and aesthetic be reassessed\, rethought and then rewritten? What are the ethical legacies of Laban’s system? Emigration\, for a long time\, has represented the cleansing process that enables and legitimises the continued propagation of Laban’s theories. Should we accept that approach? \nThese are the complex and thought-provoking issues that Dr. Marion Kant and Dr. Clare Lidbury will grapple with in this session. \nTo book\, click here. \n  \nThis event is organized by Insiders/Outsiders. \n  \n\nThis event will be held on Zoom. Upon registering\, you will be sent a link to the Event in your confirmation email\, and reminders will be sent closer to the time. \nHow do I join a Zoom event?

SUMMARY:Laelia Goehr: Photographer
DESCRIPTION:Laelia Goehr\, Yemenite Jewish Girl\, Israel\, 1951\nCellist and photographer Julia Crockatt will be in conversation with independent researcher John March about her remarkable grandmother Laelia Goehr (1908-2002). Born into a well-to-do Jewish family in Kiev\, she showed a talent for music from an early age. Soon after the Russian Revolution\, the family moved to Berlin (via Warsaw)\, where Laelia in due course became part of a successful cabaret duo called The Stone Sisters. In 1930 she married the conductor and composer Walter Goehr\, and in 1933 the couple fled to the safety of England\, where\, having worked as Bill Brandt’s assistant\, she established herself as a serious photographer.  \nThis talk coincides with the launch of a website\, which for the first time reveals the true extent of her photographic output\, which ranged from images of dancers and eminent musicians such as Stravinsky and Rostropovich through street photography to nudes\, flowers and animals. This event is held in partnership with Four Corners\, London\, where earlier this year\, Goehr’s work featured in the exhibition Another Eye. \nTo book\, click here. \nThis event is organized by Insiders/Outsiders. \n  \n\nThis event will be held on Zoom.
