CRAFT EXHIBITION ABIGAIL BROWN As a young girl Abigail Brown grew up surrounded by the tools of her grandma’s trade... loose threads, scraps of fabric, pins and needles, and the constant whirr of the sewing machine, and this is where it all began.

She is fascinated by animals, particularly birds, because of all the thoughts and feelings she can imagine they are experiencing but can never truly hope to know.

She uses colour, pattern and texture and a visual language which is quirky and playful, reminiscent of a childhood that she holds very dear.

Abigail’s work is for sale.

WITHOUT FROM WITHIN

Taking as its subject the view through the window, this stunning exhibition looks at the way artists have treated the relationship between interior and exterior space and examines the development and variation of the motif in the work of major twentiethcentury and contemporary British painters.

This modernist trope had its roots in the ground-breaking work of the Cubist and Fauve artists at the beginning of the last century. In Britain, the artistic revolution in Europe was greeted eagerly by those artists wishing to break with tradition, evident in the earliest works in the exhibition by the Camden Town and Bloomsbury Groups.

The deceptively straightforward challenge to portray the dynamic tension “from the space, through the space, to the space” continued to provide artists with the opportunity to reflect developments and movements in twentieth-century art at home and abroad and to explore and extend their own visual repertoire.

Without from Within takes the viewer through the journey of these artistic movements as represented by leading figures such as Duncan Grant, Paul Nash, Ben and Winifred Nicholson, Ivon Hitchens, David Hockney, Patrick Caulfield and Howard Hodgkin, and offers a rare opportunity to view their work in the context of some of their European contemporaries including Raoul Dufy and René Magritte.

Without from Within has been curated for the Djanogly Art Gallery by Anne Goodchild, formerly Curator of Art at Museums Sheffield, and develops the theme of her exhibition The Absent Presence Graves Art Gallery 1991.

MAREK TOBOLEWSKI NEW PAINTINGS AND DRAWINGS: CONTINUUM IN SYMMETRY For the last 25 years Marek Tobolewski has devoted his creative energies to making ambitious large-scale abstract paintings and drawings. These have been exhibited in galleries worldwide including Brussels, Paris and New York.

The new work in his Continuum series has been concerned with symmetry and reflection. Rotating and mirroring linear forms, layering surfaces of pure colour and exposing under-painting through negative lines.

A constant in the artist’s formal abstraction is the arc of a circle albeit in a state of perpetual evolution - and a preoccupation with the endless reinvention of his own compositions; he continually returns to existing works, adjusting structures and refining each individual flow of a line in an attempt to reveal balance and perfect form.

Marek Tobolewski is currently artist-in-residence at Lakeside Arts Centre where he is engaged in completing a new commission for the University’s Music department. This is the first major solo exhibition of the artist’s work in the UK for over a decade and presents an important opportunity to survey the key developments in his current practice.

LECTURES THURSDAY 13 MAY 6.30-7.30PM DJANOGLY ART GALLERY LECTURE THEATRE ADMISSION FREE Marek Tobolewski introduces the themes and preoccupations of his past and present work prior to a viewing of his exhibition.

The lecture 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.

JAMES WEBB PRAYER

James Webb insists he is not a ‘sound artist’ per se but a ‘media artist’ exploring the ‘interplay of all media in our multi-hybridized world’.

The idea of making a work incorporating prayers came to Webb in 1999 upon hearing a story of a group of scientists who were to include information about human culture in their satellite in the event of an encounter by a higher intelligence. Webb wondered what this material might be and further speculated on what it would be like to listen to all the prayers that were being recited at any given moment, and what impression that would give of our world. This idea took on a political dimension as random domestic terrorist attacks in his domicile of Cape Town resulted in heightened media speculation fuelling public anxiety concerning the role of religion and religious difference in post-apartheid South Africa.

The first public presentation of Prayer was in 2002, in which the artist recorded 36 prayers representing a broad cross-section of Cape Town’s faiths. The resulting audio installation presented audiences with an uncharacteristic experience of the city as a culturally rich interdependent landscape.

James Webb considers his works to be open-ended explorations. In Nottingham, his latest version of the piece, comprising a range of prayers recorded from a diverse spectrum of the city’s religious faiths, is presented as a multichannel sound installation. The resultant work, straightforwardly, in real-time and with minimal editing, fuses voice, melody and language to envelop the gallery visitor with the resonant texture of each religion’s hopes, desires and entreaties.

The realisation of James Webb’s Prayer in Nottingham has been made possible with the generous support of the curator Anna Douglas and the people of many faiths who have agreed to the recordings of their prayers.

LECTURES FRIDAY 25 JUNE 6.30-7.30PM (FOLLOWED BY PRIVATE VIEW) DJANOGLY ART GALLERY LECTURE THEATRE ADMISSION FREE James Webb will give an introduction to the making of Prayer within the wider context of his sound installation work.

The lecture 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.

SAINTS, SINNERS AND STORY TELLERS MEDIEVAL WOLLATON MANUSCRIPTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NOTTINGHAM A local collection of manuscript volumes offers an extraordinarily rich perspective on the literary tastes and religious faith of our medieval ancestors. Illustrated French romances and fourteenth-century texts in English demonstrate the move of literature from Latin to native languages, while a single leaf records in English the life of St Zita, the Italian saint of housekeepers.

The volumes in question represent a remnant of the rich library collection formerly housed at Wollaton Hall, together with the magnificent Wollaton Antiphonal. Such books have faced many risks to their survival over the centuries and original binding features are often lost in later repairs. While the Wollaton volumes all remain fragile, they provide valuable evidence about their first creation and use.

The decoration of medieval volumes is an essential part of their charm for modern readers. The Antiphonal’s conservation programme allows the display of more than one illuminated page, and digital images enable the details of illustrations to be viewed for the first time.

A series of talks and events will be held to accompany the exhibition. Places are limited so please book your tickets with the Box Office on 0115 846 7777.

International Piano Quarterly Concert finishes at approximately 9.15pm

The remarkable Italian pianist Stefano Bollani returns to Lakeside with his Danish trio, a group that has been honing its improvisational understanding for the last six years.

The three players move with immense subtlety through a fascinating and sophisticated programme that includes new pieces by Bollani and Bodilsen, plus ballads by Caetano Veloso and Antonio Carlos Jobim, as well as a piece

by Poulenc. Bollani is a star of the international jazz scene, having won the European Jazz Prize in 2007. He has since performed in capacity halls across Europe and the UK to great acclaim from audiences and critics alike. The Trio’s CD Stone in the Water on the ECM label was released last autumn.

“There are thoughtful originals from Bollani and Bodilsen here, but also an absorbing programme...highlights Bollani’s startling harmonic imagination” John Fordham, The Guardian

Anthony Powers Lamento della Ninfa Anthony POWERS Nightsongs for Piano Quartet WEBER Piano Quartet in B flat BRAHMS Piano Quartet No.1 in G minor, Op.25 Taking Monteverdi’s madrigal ‘Lamento della Ninfa’ as its inspiration, Anthony Powers’s Nightsongs is a hauntingly atmospheric response to the famous and magically beautiful gardens at Ninfa, the ancient settlement southeast of Rome.

Weber’s youthful Piano Quartet is full of sparkling exuberance, with a demanding piano part that Weber wrote to show off his own pianistic brilliance. Brahms’s Piano Quartet in G minor completes the programme with a rousing gypsy finale.

Regular visitors and firm favourites of the Djanogly Recital Hall audience, the Guarneri Trio Prague returns for an allCzech programme. Josef Suk’s Piano Trio in C minor was written in 1889 at the age of just 15. An air of tragedy pervades Smetana’s G minor Piano Trio written in memory of his first child who died at the age of four. Dvorák’s set of six dumka known as the ‘Dumky’ trio is one of his most well known chamber works. A dumka is a Ukranian lament, a folksong that alternates sombre and lighthearted moods, providing Slavonic composers with a recognisable link to their folksong heritage as well as a form that lent itself to creative exploration. v

BINCHOIS CONSORT Director: Andrew Kirkman The celebrated Wollaton Antiphonal, a glorious musical manuscript of Latin chant from the fifteenth century, has been lovingly and painstakingly conserved over recent years. Its renewed splendour will be celebrated in a concert of English polyphonic music of the time, sung by the internationally renowned Binchois Consort. This richly varied programme will include rare items from the manuscript itself, and compositions directly connected with it, as well as a varied selection of English pre-Reformation styles. The selection of music has been devised to illustrate in sound the period of time from the manuscript’s original making to its subsequent arrival in St Leonard’s Church, Wollaton, in the later fifteenth century.

Charlotte Daniel, conductors Jonathan Tilbrook Jonathan Pether, cello BRAHMS Academic Festival Overture SHOSTAKOVICH Cello Concerto No.1 SCHUMANN Symphony No.3 in E flat (Rhenish) The final orchestral concert of the year begins in a triumphant mood with Brahms’s Academic Festival Overture which incorporates student songs in a rousing celebration written for Breslau University. Final-year music student Jonathan Pether performs Shostakovich’s First Cello Concerto, one of the great works of the cello repertoire written for Mstislav Rostropovich in 1959.

Schumann’s uplifting final symphony was inspired by the spirit of the Rhineland although it was his publisher Simrock that appended the title ‘Rhenish’ to the work.

The second movement is in the style of a peasant ländler while the ceremonial solemnity of the trombones at the beginning of the fourth movement was said, by Schumann, to have been inspired by the sight of the magnificent Cologne Cathedral.

Bruce Fraser’s dramatic The King Across the Water, in which the entire ensemble are instructed to play hand drums, vividly recreates the era of Bonnie Prince Charlie.

Join artist Claire Morris-Wright for a creative clay workshop. The artist’s 3-D shapes and forms are inspired by landscape and land shapes and in this exploratory session she will be giving you the opportunity to create sculptures.

No previous experience necessary and all materials provided.

Spend the day with exhibiting artist Marek Tobolewski. Following a visit to Marek’s exhibition at the Djanogly Art Gallery and his studio in the DH Lawrence Pavilion, participants will be given the opportunity to translate sound and objects into marks and structures, abstracting from observation and developing these visual ideas as personal journeys into large scale drawings.

No previous experience necessary and all materials provided.
