How and why does classical antiquity live on in us and in our worlds?
Join us online for poetry readings by Lesley Saunders and Josephine Balmer, framed by the evocative surroundings of our gallery of classical casts.
Their performance responds to the idea expressed by the classical scholar Edmund Richardson that ‘we work with fragments, we work with dreams, we work with the longing for lost texts to be discovered, for every broken thing to be repaired…’
Join Kettle’s Yard, The Heong Gallery and The Fitzwilliam Museum for a live streamed drawing and sound performance by Syrian-born and Cambridge-based artist Issam Kourbaj, marking the tenth anniversary of the Syrian uprising – a crisis that resulted in violent armed conflict and ongoing civil war. This is a collaboration with composer Richard Causton and soprano Jessica Summers.
This spring, the Scott Polar Research Institute is holding its first ever online art festival. Featuring work from the Polar Museum's collections, artists with a focus on the polar regions and an evening of film by Inuit film makers, the Big Freeze art festival is the perfect way to wave goodbye to winter.
Paul Kindersley is one of 22 artists selected for inclusion in The Cambridge Show and is performing in the gallery every Saturday during the exhibition.
Paul Kindersley and a troupe of performers will perform Ship of Fools, a play written by Kindersley and inspired by a painting by Dutch artist Hieronymus Bosch (1450-1516). Bosch’s Ship of Fools depicts a boatload of merrymakers indulging in earthly pleasures while unwittingly sailing towards their doom. The performance will last 30 minutes and will take place amongst Kindersley’s installation of handpainted drapery in the gallery.
FREE, come along.
Wendling has created a new evocative and sensory communal experience around the idea of inhibition, habit, the human presence, and the everyday that will take visitors on a journey through the domestic spaces of the House.
FREE, booking required.
Harold Offeh’s Reading the Realness is a spoken-word performance based around a conversation that occurred on the American talk show The Real involving activist Rachel Dolezal. Dolezal came to public attention when she was controversially ‘outed’ for being trans-racial and living as an African-American woman. Offeh’s performance adopts the form of a script reading workshop featuring participants from a range of backgrounds.
