  • 2011: Durham University
    THE CLASSICAL ASSOCIATION ANNUAL CONFERENCE DURHAM UNIVERSITY FRIDAY 15TH APRIL - MONDAY 18TH APRIL 2011 CONFERENCE INFORMATION We are delighted to invite you to attend the 2011 Classical Association Annual Conference, which this year will be hosted by Durham University. Founded by Royal Charter in 1832, Durham University is among the contenders to the title of third oldest University of England; yet despite its ancient roots, Durham prides itself on combining tradition with innovation. The same is true of its Classics Department, one of the largest, youngest, and most international Classics Departments around. Two-thirds of staff in the department are non- British nationals: Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Serbia, and the USA are all represented; current research postgraduates add Egypt, Greece, Hungary, Korea, and Japan to the list. All of this is testimony to our view that Classics not only continues to be relevant, but has become increasingly important as a shared cultural resource through which diverse contemporary cultures can communicate. In various ways, then, Durham Classics operates across boundaries of time and of space and stands for intellectual exchange across languages and cultures, and it is this spirit of open exchange and dialogue that we hope to enact and celebrate during the Classical Association Annual Conference as well. The Durham colleges allow us to return to the traditional format of the on-campus event, with both accommodation and academic sessions in the main conference venue, Collingwood College. It will however also be possible to book a room at the Business school, or at the Marriott; and Durham city offers a range of other possibilities.

  • The Social and Material Worlds of Alphonsine Bowes De Saint-Amand
    Beyond the Bowes Museum: The Social and Material Worlds of Al phonsine Bowes de Saint-Amand Lindsay Macnaughton The Bowes Museum in Barnard Castle is a public art museum built from 1869 and inaugurated in 1892 to display in technical and didactic ways the collection formed by a couple who lived most of their adult lives in Paris. The so-called founders’ collection combines items purchased with the museum in mind with an important collection of artworks and fur- nishings used in the couple’s own homes on both sides of the Channel. Today the museum presents to visitors a selective biography of its found- ers, John and Joséphine Bowes. John Bowes (1811–1885), the illegitimate son of the 10th Earl of Strathmore, inherited his father’s English estates, but not his title.1 Educated at Eton and Cambridge, he displayed a keen interest in theatre, history, and France. By 1847 Bowes had taken up resi- dence in Paris, marking an end to his career as a Whig MP for County Durham. An essential figure in exporting the British horseracing tradition into France and a wealthy bachelor from a landed family, Bowes joined the exclusive Cercle de l’Union in 1846 and was invited to join the Jockey Club.2 By contrast, Benoîte Joséphine Coffin dite Chevalier was born in Paris on 26 April 1825, the daughter of a clockmaker, originally from Lyons, and Madeleine Antoinette Sergent (1787–1866).3 Joséphine followed Laurent-Joseph Morin’s classes at the Conservatoire, and performed on the stage of the Théâtre Français.4 In September 1846 La Tribune dramatique reported that the young actress Mademoiselle Delorme (Joséphine’s stage name) would commence a three-year contract at the Théâtre des Variétés, which was bought outright in cash by John Bowes in 1847.5 They signed a 1 Charles Hardy, John Bowes and the Bowes Museum (Barnard Castle: Friends of the Bowes Museum, 1970), pp.

  • Annual Report for 2016/17
    ART FUND IN 2016/ 17 We know these are difficult times for UK museums and that, for many, the future looks uncertain. Over the past year our work – not just as a funder, but also as an advocate of and ally to arts organisations – has never seemed more important, or more crucial. Art Fund is an independent charity and does not receive government funding. In 2016 our income totalled £15.2m (up from £14.8m in 2015) and so, rather than cutting back, we began investing in activities to extend our membership and increase the funds we raise. This will mean we are able to do even more to support museums in the years ahead. In 2016 we gave over £4.7m in acquisition grants to help museums build their collections, 75% of which were awarded to organisations outside CONTENTS London. We have seen our support have a real impact. The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, for example, became the first UK museum to own a work by a Czech Surrealist, Toyen’s The Message of the Forest, while the Bowes Museum acquired a rare and important picture from the workshop of the pioneering painter Dieric Bouts the Elder that would have otherwise been sold to a buyer abroad. Page 2 BUILDING COLLECTIONS We also continued to fund development opportunities for curators across The acquisitions we support the UK, fulfilling a need that many museum budgets cannot meet. This year we helped curators travel to six of the seven continents to carry out Page 18 DEVELOPING TALENT 3 vital research for their exhibitions or collections through our Jonathan 4 Ruffer Curatorial Grants programme.

  • Recent Acquisitions at the Bowes Museum, Barnard Castle
    SUP.JUNE.Pg.proof_ma.nov.coop/plaz.pp.corr 16/05/2012 16:11 Page 457 The Michael Marks Charitable Trust Supplement Recent acquisitions at The Bowes Museum, Barnard Castle THE BOWES MUSEUM at Barnard Castle in County Durham is housed in an immense French-style château built by Jules Pellechet as a museum for John Bowes, son of the 10th Earl of Strathmore, and his wife, Joséphine. Their collection was chiefly formed in Paris in the period 1862–74, adding to a modest group of early Italian pictures acquired by Bowes in the 1840s. The couple purchased extensively, not just paintings and sculpture but ceramics, glass, furniture, tapestries and objets d’art of all kinds. Most unusually for this period, Bowes bought El Greco’s The tears of St Peter, one of several Spanish works in the collection; his wife, an amateur painter, added con - temporary works by Boudin and Courbet to earlier paintings by Boucher and Tiepolo. Outstanding in the col lections are fine examples of German faience; Sèvres porcelain; and Second Empire furniture. The Museum opened to the public in 1892 and gifts and purchases have continued to be added to its holdings. After threatened closure in 1998–99, The Bowes Museum reverted in 2000 to governance by a separate body of Trustees and a Director dedicated to transforming it into one of the world’s finest non-national museums. This change in gover- nance enabled the Museum to take maximum advantage of the public and private grants offered for improvements to facilities, display and amenities, which now include a new roof, picture store, textile, metalwork and picture galleries, as well as a newly catalogued library and archive.
