  • Partnerships: an NMDC Briefing
    Partnerships: an NMDC briefing Museums of all sizes and types regularly work in partnership to deliver collaborative projects with other museums, educational establishments, and heritage and community organisations across the country. Many of these partnerships are based around the loan of objects, including from national museums, but others focus on developing new public programming, sharing skills and expertise, education and learning, and working with communities. Museums continue to adapt the focus and nature of partnership working as a way of managing the impact of cuts to public funding and developing greater resilience. Museums loan thousands of objects to other museums across the UK every year as part of mutually beneficial collaborative projects. In 2012/13, DCMS-sponsored museums lent objects to 2727 venues in the UK (a marked increase from 1530 in 2008/09).i Examples include: Star object loans: National Gallery Masterpiece tour (sponsored by Christie's) opened with Manet's The Execution of Maximillian at The Beaney in Canterbury. It was seen by nearly 21,000 people before moving on to Barnard Castle and Coventry. Until 2016, one major National Gallery painting will tour each year. Loans of local significance: the loan of the Lindisfarne Gospels from the British Library to Durham Cathedral in 2012 generated £8.3m in economic benefit and was visited by 100,000 peopleii; Long-term loans to provide content for a museum or historic house: apart from one locomotive, the entire collection of locomotives and stock on display at STEAM in Swindon is a long-term loan from the National Railway Museum. Larger museums and specialist collections tour complete exhibitions to venues around the country.

  • NEWSLETTER National Trust Issue 107 Winter 2018 £1 (Free to Members) from the Chairman John James a Happy New Year to You All
    The Friends of Osterley Park In support of the NEWSLETTER National Trust Issue 107 Winter 2018 £1 (free to members) from the Chairman John James A Happy New Year to you all. We finished our programme for 2017 with a Christmas Lunch in the Brewhouse. It was a lovely occasion, with the café providing an excellent meal. The year also ended well for the House and Park, as they won the Running Awards 2018 for Best 10K Run in Greater London. The property have also concluded the staff and volunteer survey, with 170 completing it, an increase on last year. An innovation has been a trial allowing dogs into the gardens and to the stable café (a limited number at a time). The trial is running from 6th November 2017 to 23rd February 2018. The Halloween Pumpkin Festival was a great success. 2,000 pumpkins were sold, 11,000 individual marshmallows were packed and sold at the fire pits. It was also hugely successful for catering and retail. Another success was achieving the membership targets for the year. I mentioned in the Autumn newsletter the advert that Mike Doran was able to place on the website of Reach. It led to our finding a new Membership Secretary in Keith Rookledge. We welcome him to the Friends’ committee. Margaret Friday again arranged some very interesting London visits, to the Museum of Garden History and to the Jewel House, Westminster. Our coach trips continue to be well attended and the September visit was to the Shuttleworth Collection, Old Warden and in October to Sudeley Castle.

The Architecture of Joseph Michael Gandy (1771-1843) and Sir John Soane (1753-1837): An Exploration Into the Masonic and Occult Imagination of the Late Enlightenment Abstract In examining select works of English architects Joseph Michael Gandy and Sir John Soane, this dissertation is intended to bring to light several important parallels between architectural theory and freemasonry during the late Enlightenment. Both architects developed architectural theories regarding the universal origins of architecture in an attempt to establish order as well as transcend the emerging historicism of the early nineteenth century. There are strong parallels between Soane's use of architectural narrative and his discussion of architectural 'model' in relation to Gandy's understanding of 'trans-historical' architecture. The primary textual sources discussed in this thesis include Soane's Lectures on Architecture, delivered at the Royal Academy from 1809 to 1836, and Gandy's unpublished treatise entitled the Art, Philosophy, and Science of Architecture, circa 1826.
