  • Barbican Art Gallery 2020 Exhibition Programme
    Barbican Art Gallery 2020 Exhibition Programme Into the Night: Cabarets and Clubs in Modern Art Until 19 January 2020, Barbican Art Gallery Last few weeks Into the Night: Cabarets and Clubs in Modern Art explores the social and artistic role of cabarets, cafés and clubs around the world. Spanning the 1880s to the 1960s, the exhibition presents a dynamic and multi-faceted history of artistic production. The first major show staged on this theme, it features both famed and little-known sites of the avant-garde – these creative spaces were incubators of radical thinking, where artists could exchange provocative ideas and create new forms of artistic expression. Into the Night offers an alternative history of modern art that highlights the spirit of experimentation and collaboration between artists, performers, designers, musicians and writers such as Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Loïe Fuller, Josef Hoffmann, Giacomo Balla, Theo van Doesburg and Sophie Taeuber-Arp, as well as Josephine Baker, Jeanne Mammen, Aaron Douglas, Jacob Lawrence, Ramón Alva de la Canal and Ibrahim El-Salahi.

Paglen’s practice spans image-making, sculpture, investigative journalism, writing and engineering. Among his primary concerns are learning to see the historical moment we live in, exposing the invisible power structures that underpin the reality of our daily lives and developing the means to imagine alternative futures.

The exhibition, bringing together new artwork and collections, will be accompanied by a programme of events and activities also co-produced by the Collective. The Collective members collaborating on the exhibition are: Ahmadzia, a volunteer at Southwark Day Centre for Asylum Seekers (SDCAS) and a kite maker, who came to the UK in 2006 from Kunduz, Afghanistan, and is a refugee Carola Cappellari, a photojournalism and documentary photography student who volunteered her skills to produce promotional material for the Indoamerican Refugee and Migrant Organisation, a community-led organisation supporting Latin Americans to build secure and integrated lives in the UK Francis Stanfield, a multi-tasker when it comes to music who describes himself as ‘the original stuporman’. He is influenced by surrealism, films and art, likes ‘anything out of the weird’ and joined the Collective through his involvement with St. Christopher’s Hospice Godfrey Gardin, from Kenya but living in London, who volunteers with SDCAS ‘because it enriches the community where I live’ and who also has an interest in gardening Jacqueline Benn, who has a career background in TV programming planning and immersive theatre, and whose interests lie also in the arts, and producing short films.

  • NMDC Response to the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee Inquiry Into Tourism
    NMDC response to CMS Select Committee Inquiry into Tourism This response is submitted on behalf of the National Museum Directors’ Council (NMDC). The NMDC represents the leaders of the UK's national collections and major regional museums. Our members are the national and major regional museums in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, the British Library, the National Library of Scotland, and the National Archives. While our members are funded by government, the NMDC is an independent, non- governmental organisation. For more information on our activity and a full list of members see our website: www.nationalmuseums.org.uk Summary Museums are a critical part of the UK tourism offer, and visiting museums has never been so popular. Museums continue to develop their offer and operation to attract both domestic and overseas tourists. Museums and heritage continue to be primary reasons to visit Britain. Museums play a very significant role in the development of the regional tourist industry. They are frequently the most visited attraction in a town, city or region. They are also active in workforce development in this aspect of the tourism sector, including via apprenticeships and the sharing of good practice through local networks. Museum partnerships are an excellent and successful way of encouraging regional tourism, as well as building on the success of London. These partnerships have also helped with the regeneration of coastal towns built around culture or heritage. However, despite being so integral to the tourist industry, and the fact that supporting tourism is an economic priority for the Government, local authority and central Government investment for museums has substantially reduced since 2010.

  • By Mike Klozar Have You Dreamed of Visiting London, but Felt It Would
    By Mike Klozar Have you dreamed of visiting London, but felt it would take a week or longer to sample its historic sites? Think again. You can experience some of London's best in just a couple of days. Day One. • Thames River Walk. Take a famous London Black Cab to the Tower of London. The ride is an experience, not just a taxi. (15-30 min.) • Explore the Tower of London. Keep your tour short, but be sure to check out the Crown Jewels. (1-2 hrs.) • Walk across the Tower Bridge. It's the fancy blue one. (15 min.) From here you get the best view of the Tower of London for photos. • Cross over to Butler's Wharf and enjoy lunch at one of the riverfront restaurants near where Bridget lived in Bridget Jones's Diary. (1.5 hrs.) • Keeping the Thames on your right, you'll come to the warship HMS Belfast. Tours daily 10 a.m.-4 p.m. (30 min.-1 hr.) • Walk up London Bridge Street to find The Borough Market.

(1 hr.) • Back on the river, you'll discover a tiny ship tucked into the docks: a replica of Sir Francis Drake's Golden Hind, which braved pirates in the days of yore. (15 min.) • Notable London pubs are situated along the route and are good for a pint, a cup of tea and a deserved break. Kids are welcome.

  • Tate Acquisition and Disposal Policy
    TATE ACQUISITION AND DISPOSAL POLICY Approved by the Board of Trustees on 18 November 2020 Date of Next Review: November 2023 Statement of Principles 1. Mission Statement Tate’s mission, drawn from the 1992 Museums and Galleries Act, is to increase the public’s knowledge, understanding and enjoyment of British art from the sixteenth century to the present day and of international modern and contemporary art. 2. Remit of the Collection Tate collects British art from circa 1500 and international modern and contemporary art from circa 1900 to the present. It seeks to represent significant developments in art in all areas covered by this remit. It seeks to collect works of art that are of outstanding quality as well as works that are of distinctive aesthetic character or importance. 2.1 British Art British art encompasses work by artists defined by their contribution to the history and development of British art rather than by nationality. Tate aims to hold the most significant collection of British art in the world, in terms of its depth and breadth of diversity, and in regard to the quality of individual works. 2.2 International Art Tate’s international collection is shaped by a truly global vision. In 2000, the Board of Trustees extended Tate’s collecting remit to include art from regions such as Africa, South Asia, Latin America, Australia, China, Eastern Europe, Russia and the Middle East. Diverse and inclusive, Tate’s international collection continues to explore transnational themes and the diversification of form and material to be found in international contemporary art.
