ART 04 DJANOGLY ART GALLERY
REVOLUTIONPAPER MEXICAN PRINTS 1910–1960
A BRITISH MUSEUM TOUR SUPPORTED BY
SATURDAY 20 NOVEMBER 2010 SUNDAY 27 FEBRUARY 2011 DJANOGLY ART GALLERY ADMISSION FREE When shown at the British Museum earlier this year, this exhibition was the first in Europe to focus on the great age of Mexican printmaking in the first half of the 20th century. Between 1910 and 1920, Mexico was convulsed by a socialist revolution that aimed to topple the elite ruling class and improve conditions for society at large. The left-wing government which emerged laid great emphasis on art as a vehicle to promote the values of the revolution. Walls of public buildings were covered with vast murals, and workshops made prints for mass distribution. Some of the finest of these prints were produced by the three great men of Mexican art of the period known as ‘los tres grandes’: Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco and David Alfaro Siqueiros. The exhibition includes Rivera’s famous Emiliano Zapata and his horse which has achieved iconic status in 20th-century art. It also features works by artists that rose to prominence after the founding of the Taller del Gráfica Popular (the national print workshop) in 1937, and earlier works by José Guadalupe Posada, who was posthumously recognised by the revolutionaries as the father of printmaking in Mexico.

All of the prints in the exhibition come from the British Museum’s collection which has been acquired thanks to the generosity of the Aldama Foundation, Dave and Reba Williams and The Art Fund.

VISITOR IGLOO igloo is the collective title of Londonbased artist duo Ruth Gibson and Bruno Martelli whose installations, video works, online projects and performances have featured in international exhibitions and festivals including the 52nd Venice Biennale. Inspired by the artists’ trip to the Canadian Rockies in 2009, VISITOR consists of two newly commissioned installations which continue their investigation into the relationship between the natural and the artificial using game engine and motion capture technologies.
Vermilion Lake, the second component of the exhibition, is a full-sized rustic wooden cabin. Once inside this sculptural installation the viewer is taken on an interactive adventure, navigating mountain scenery through the artists’ unique rendering of a three-dimensional environment. This new exhibition plays with our apprehension of different forms of reality by bringing the exterior virtual space into the interior physical space of the gallery.
WEDNESDAY 16 MARCH 6-7PM DJANOGLY ART GALLERY ADMISSION FREE Ruth Gibson and Bruno Martelli introduce the two installations which make up VISITOR within the broader context of their art practice and previous projects. This talk is free but space is limited so please book in advance by calling the Box Office on 0115 846 7777. If after booking you are unable to attend please let us know so that we can offer the place to someone else.
Artists’ impression of Vermilion Lake
where the bears are sleeping is a video presenting a series of snow-driven landscapes evoking the beauty and strangeness of the natural world. Immersed in an unsettling stillness disturbed only by the wind and falling snow, the viewer slowly becomes aware of a solitary presence emerging from its surroundings, appearing and disappearing amongst the woods, frozen lakes and hillsides.

STEF CARTWRIGHT “Photography converts the whole world into a cemetery. Photographers, connoisseurs of beauty, are also - wittingly or unwittingly - the recording-angels of death.” Susan Sontag Stef Cartwright’s intimate black and white photographs have a romantic, dream-like quality. In common with some 19th-century portraiture and more recent photographers such as Duane Michals, her work addresses death, desire and the interior state of her subjects. Having graduated from Nottingham Trent University in 2010 she is the winner of the Photography Bursary Award supported by the Djanogly Art Gallery, NTU and HIVE. THURSDAY 24 FEBRUARY 6-7PM PREVIEW AND OPPORTUNITY TO MEET THE ARTIST Please call the Box Office on 0115 846 7777 to book a place.

IMAGINED OBJECTS OF DESIRE Inspired by collections from the museum, this exhibition of work by jewellery maker Lina Peterson is a collaboration with the Museum and Lakeside Arts Centre in a project funded by museumaker. Taking the collections as a starting point and using replicas of museum objects, Lina’s designs are influenced both by the existing details of artefacts and by those that have been lost through time and wear. By filling in the gaps, Lina has created imaginative pieces of jewellery, which she calls hybrid objects or her Imagined Objects of Desire. The exhibition will continue until 17 December, except 12 - 14 November when the work will be displayed at Lustre.

SPECIAL COLLECTIONS 12
ROMAN SEXUALITY IMAGES, MYTHS AND MEANINGS
Co-curated by Clare Pickersgill, University of Nottingham Museum, Dr Paul Roberts, Department of Greece and Rome, British Museum in collaboration with Manuscripts and Special Collections, University of Nottingham.
WESTON GALLERY EXHIBITIONS MANUSCRIPTS & SPECIAL COLLECTIONS FRIDAY 14 JANUARY - SUNDAY 10 APRIL ADMISSION FREE This exhibition brings together a wide variety of sexual images from Roman art and archaeology and investigates what they meant to those who made and used them. It begins by looking at how Victorian attitudes have affected the way we have collected, displayed and studied these objects including the centrepiece of this exhibition, The Warren Cup. This Roman silver cup, decorated with scenes of homosexual love, is one of the highlights of the British Museum and is central to a wider discussion on sex and sexuality in the Roman world. The exhibition also looks at concepts of sacred and profane love, and the gods, goddesses and myths associated with sexuality. Finally, objects are displayed which to modern eyes may appear to be sexual but which to Roman eyes were not. Instead these objects were filled with other meanings to the Romans, such as fertility, superstition and humour. This exhibition contains objects from the collections of the British Museum and University of Nottingham alongside pieces from Nottingham City Museums and Galleries and the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, University of Cambridge.
PLEASE NOTE Some materials in the exhibition contain imagery that could be seen as unsuitable for children. We advise that adults accompany children under the age of 16.
GALLERY TALKS A series of talks and tours will be held to accompany the exhibition. Admission is free but places are limited so please book your tickets with the Box Office on 0115 846 7777. WEDNESDAY 19 JANUARY 1-2PM DJANOGLY THEATRE THE WARREN CUP: A COLLECTOR AND HIS HOLY GRAIL Dr Dyfri Williams, Research Keeper of the Department of Greece and Rome, British Museum. This talk will look at what we know of both the colourful history of the Warren Cup and of its first owner, E.P. Warren, into whose circle the remarkable Roman silver cup fitted perfectly. FRIDAY 11 FEBRUARY 1-2PM PERFORMING ARTS WORKSHOP SPACE THE WARREN CUP: A REFLECTION OF ROMAN SOCIETY? Dr Paul Roberts, Senior Curator of Roman Art and Archaeology, British Museum and Co-curator of the exhibition, looks at the Warren Cup in the context of Roman society. How widespread was sexual imagery and what did it mean to the Romans? Was the Warren Cup a depiction of fact or a flight of fantasy?
MONDAY 14 MARCH 1-2PM DJANOGLY THEATRE GODDESS OR PAGE 3 GIRL: THE FEMALE FORM IN ROMANO-BRITISH SCULPTURE Lindsay Allason-Jones, Director of the Centre for Interdisciplinary Artefact Studies and Reader in Roman Material Culture at Newcastle University. Romano-British religion included the worship of many female deities, some of whom were imported from the Mediterranean whilst others appear to have been native deities. This paper looks particularly at the various sculptures of the female form from British sites, and tries to tease out if they all depict deities or nymphs or if some are simply nudes. This will be looked at in the context of different military units and their native religious practises - was one man’s devotional object another man’s pin-up girl?
GALLERY TOURS TUESDAY 25 JANUARY 2PM* SATURDAY 5 FEBRUARY 11AM* FRIDAY 11 FEBRUARY 11AM** FRIDAY 4 MARCH 11AM* SATURDAY 19 MARCH 11AM** A guided tour and introduction to the exhibition either by Clare Pickersgill*, Curator of the University of Nottingham Museum and co-curator of the exhibition, or Dr Paul Roberts** from the British Museum.

From debt/wage slavery, to creative oppression in the music industry and ideas of race in a post-Obama age it combines this rich musical inheritance and revisits it with a stellar jazz ensemble and hip-hop production. Citing influences as diverse as Duke Ellington, Madlib and Frederick Delius, it plants the power and significance of the blues firmly within modern realities.

MATTHEW BARLEY CELLO & SANJU SAHAI TABLA Cellist Matthew Barley first met tabla player Sanju Sahai on stage at the WOMAD festival in 2004, performing with Sarod legend Amjad Ali Khan. They have since developed a duo programme based around pieces that they have collected on their travels around the world, including some wonderful Balkan pieces in very unusual time signatures. None of these pieces would have been written with a cello in mind - but a cello can sing, and a tabla can dance, so together they can make music...

THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER Jean Epstein’s 1928 masterpiece of this gripping classic story by Edgar Alan Poe is full of suspense and visually stunning. The film also incorporates elements of other Poe short stories, namely ‘The Oval Portrait’ and ‘The Pit and the Pendulum’. The new score for this performance is written and performed by the Southwell Collective with music inspired by quotes found in Poe’s original story which refers to Roderick Usher playing ‘Weber’s Last Waltz’ on the guitar and his ‘wild improvisations’. The waltz is heard and alluded to throughout the film but is transformed to reflect the rising tension as the film reaches its surreal climax. A short new work by Michael McCartney for the film ‘Ghosts before Breakfast’ sets the scene for an evening of suspense.

UNIVERSITY PHILHARMONIA Jonathan Tilbrook, conductor Carlos CHÁVEZ Symphony No.2 (Sinfonía India) BERLIOZ Symphonie fantastique
The Djanogly Art Gallery’s Revolution on Paper exhibition provides the starting point for this concert of music by 20thcentury Latin American composers. From Venezuela to Argentina, composers Manuel Ponce, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Antonio Lauro, Carlos Gustavino, Leo Brouwer, and Astor Piazzolla were all interested in folk music as well as popular street music and this programme devised by Mexican guitarist Morgan Szymanski reveals the colour and exuberance of music by composers inspired by these influences.
One of Mexico’s most significant 20thcentury composers, Carlos Chavez shared similar interests with his artist compatriots during the Mexican Revolution, namely exploration and celebration of his country’s indigenous roots. His Sinfonía India written in 1935 is energetic, rhythmically complex and uses an array of percussion inspired by Mexican folk music. Revolutionary in it’s time, and to this day a work both startling and disturbing, Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique was in part a highly individual response to the symphonic legacy of Beethoven, as well as radical statement from one of the most compelling musical personalities of the nineteenth century.

Schubert’s ‘Death and the Maiden’ quartet composed four years before his early death at the age of 31 is a sombre presentiment of mortality.

RALPH TOWNER GUITAR & PAOLO FRESU TRUMPET Rarely do we have the opportunity to hear a duo combining guitar and trumpet alone. There are few sounds in jazz as sensually seductive as Ralph Towner’s guitars. As for Sardinian Paolo Fresu, his long notes somehow contain both flawless golden light and human frailty.
Towner and Fresu have rarely played together, and never before as a duo but they are made for each other. Both are romantic and erudite improvisers who take moment-to-moment liberties with melodic form. Iconic guitarist Ralph Towner has recorded for the ECM label for nearly forty years, working with Keith Jarrett, Jan Garbarek, and his own group Oregon, whilst Carla Bley wrote an album specifically to showcase Fresu’s trumpet sound, The Lost Chords Find Paolo Fresu. They will be performing Towner’s original compositions from their recent ECM album Chiroscuro.

GAVIN ROBERTSON & BEX JOHN SHUTTLEWORTH COMPANY PRODUCTIONS IN ASSOCIATION WITH IN A MAN WITH MAKIN PROJECTS PRESENT NO MORE ROLLS 2010: “Sheffield’s finest synthesizer player and A SPACE ODDITY twaddle talker” (Daily Telegraph) decides it’s time to instruct the Nation in moral matters. Well, he would have done - had next door neighbour and sole agent, Ken Worthington not mistyped the show’s title, turning “morals” into “more rolls” John’s reaction to this mishap is philosophical. At least now his new show can consider - not just the Nation’s moral decline - but the vast range of exotic breads appearing in the high street, as the humble roll fades into obscurity. Paninis, ciabattas, pittas, plus the peshwari naan which John recently enjoyed a bite of (“It absolutely blew me away”), inspiring his exciting new ballad “How’s your nan?” John Shuttleworth (AKA actor/small island lover, Graham Fellows) was recently heard on BBC Radio 4 in series 5 of The Shuttleworths which was twice made “Pick of the Week”. His latest film, Southern Softies is screening on Sky Arts this Summer and is now available on DVD. www.shuttleworths.co.uk
2010: A Space Oddity takes us into the world of science fiction, cult movies and spoof! For Chip Huston and his Commander this was an exciting voyage to Jupiter to investigate the strange signal emanating from its surface. But then they discover the ruins of the previous mission’s spacecraft. After losing contact with Earth, encountering strange forces on the ship, and battling its seemingly paranoid and unhelpful computer, their doomed assignment takes on a whole new direction…while the fate of the World hangs in the balance… Teaming up with Jonathan Bex (‘Don Carlos’ [West End] and RSC), 2010: A Space Oddity is every space movie you’ve ever seen in an hour and a bit! 'Slick, classy, precise and succinct... with belly laughs along the way.' Remote Goat www.gavinrobertson.com

BUTTERFLY DREAMING TOUR TRIPLE BILL Henri Oguike, one of the UK’s most inventive choreographers, presents a stunning new triple bill and a handpicked quintet of world-class dancers.

Point of Contact bears all the hallmarks of Oguike’s choreography. Sensuality, beauty and sublime movement are laced together with Bach’s lyrical suites for solo cello. Butterfly Dreaming, a full Company work, draws inspiration from the Far East. Crafted on Chinese philosopher-poet Chuang-Tzu’s butterfly dream and set to the backdrop of Tan Dun’s dramatic Ghost Opera, recorded by the Kronos Quartet. Variety, wit and drama; astute musical choices; bold theatrical colour. This is contemporary dance at its most thrilling and enjoyable. Simply a must-see!

COLETTE SADLER (UK) MUSICAL Musical takes a humorous look at entertainment through the lens of postmodern dance. Playing with certain associations and expectations suggested by the title word, Musical is not traditionally entertaining but is rather about entertainment and selfamusement. Taking elements from historical music hall theatre the performance presents a tension between kitsch and minimalist aesthetics to develop a musical score in four choreographic movements. “Musical is extraordinarily striking… Sadler’s smart timed choreography is infectiously amusing.” NRC Handelsblad, Feb 2010 www.stammerproductions.com

An individual locked in a world of finite solutions searches for the infinite. Created by choreographer Tom Dale, with dancer Maria Olga Palliani, I infinite immerses audiences in a stark and captivating dance installation. A portrait of gravity as the fundamental force with which we collaborate to move, this virtuosic work is an expression of the science and artistry of movement. On another level it is about humanity itself and how we develop unconscious knowledge. Tom Dale Company creates innovative and collaborative performance works that respond to the fabric of our times. Hit shows Rise and Roam have gained critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The company’s work has also been presented as part of Europe In Motion (Spring Dance 2009) and Norfolk and Norwich International Festival (2010). www.tomdale.org.uk

DOG KENNEL HILL PROJECT (UK) THE ODD HONESTY CODE CURATED BY CHARLES LINEHAN
If you’ve forgotten to turn off your mobile phones that’s all right with us. If you take pictures use the flash… it’s good for our egos…. Refrain from looking for any sense about this piece Tonight, there’ll be no naked women on stage Apropos, as the blue stars indicate in the program, We are the B-CAST… In a live performance space built with scissors, tape and glue, the performers of Extended Teenage Era share biographies in this investigation into the attainment of adulthood. With a soundtrack featuring The Cure, Schubert, Bob Marley and Justin Timberlake, the show draws on breakdance, Latin American and contemporary dance styles.
A strange collection of objects become instruments in a makeshift Foley studio, as four performers bring to life the sounds of an odyssey. Their actions serve to re-enact and rediscover as they rummage through a dream landscape. The work celebrates a constantly shifting perspective between nonsense and the profound.

BOX A MAGICAL NEW SHOW FOR CHILDREN AND THE YOUNG AT HEART Come and immerse yourself in a world of boxes. What’s in the box? I cannot tell, there is no clue, no sight, no smell, it makes no sound, no squeak, no rattle - perhaps a herd of silent cattle. How did it arrive? Was it posted or carried or somehow alive, it shuffled and rolled and slid into view, after stowing away on a boat from Peru. And where do you think that box will go next? I’ll keep you updated by premium rate text or email newsletters that arrive everyday, and explain in great detail its long winding way. A wonderful inquisitive dance piece, crammed to the top with fun and intrigue. See boxes doing extraordinary things and have the chance to play amongst a MOUNTAIN of boxes. Choreographed by Lucy Killingley and Sarah Stanton. “Box…is appealing in its simplicity to both adults and children alike, awakening our imagination and reawakening our wonderment of simple things.” Louise Collinson, Choreographic and Dance Technique Mentor

39 SCHOOLS & COLLEGES We would like to introduce Lakeside’s Learning Team which delivers a wideranging programme for all ages. Lakeside’s new Deputy Director, Julian Tomlin has joined Learning Officers, Rachel Feneley and Ruth Lewis-Jones, and Administrator, Emily Dawkes as well as Clare Pickersgill, Museum Curator, to ensure that the service is fully integrated within Lakeside’s programme, and continues to serve our local community. The learning programme may be familiar through the work featured above. However, we also run programmes for schools and colleges and these often involve collaborating with teachers to develop tailored solutions. Examples include a touring exhibition on Roman Britain from the Museum ‘Everyday Life in Margidunum’ for use across the primary school curriculum. The Museum also offers sessions for secondary level students, including ‘A’ level, relating to the curriculum and combining sciences and humanities through archaeology. ‘Trove’, a project with Dunkirk Primary & Nursery School explored the children’s interaction with the University’s archive collections, selections of which are regularly exhibited in the Weston Gallery. There is also a long-standing relationship with six primary schools in Bilborough which feed into Nottingham University Samworth Academy. Other current projects include writer-in-residence, Peter Rumney, and work with Pilot Theatre’s ‘Romeo and Juliet’ aimed at GCSE, AS and A2 students. We are currently reviewing our offer to formal education and if you would like further information or to discuss your particular requirements please contact us. See page 40 for details.
