SUMMARY:The Female Subjects with Katy Hessel at Pallant House Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Join art historian Katy Hessel for a series of lectures dedicated to Biblical and mythological female subjects commonly depicted in western art history\, from witches to the Virgin Mary\, Medusa\, Eve to Aphrodite. Borrowing from the 1972 book and television series\, Ways of Seeing\, and its author John Berger’s idea “to start a process of questioning”\, Hessel will be delving into the evolution of these subjects: looking at their story of origin and how male artists from history ‘perceived’ them (perhaps perpetuating a certain narrative)\, and how\, if we look at them from the perspective of a woman artist\, we might just see them anew. \nThese talks are not to be recorded and are part of a working progress for an upcoming book project. \nEach talk will focus on a specific female subject from art history; \nThursday 2nd October 6-7pm – Virgin Mary \nTuesday 7th October 6-7pm – Aphrodite/Venus \nTuesday 28th October 6-7pm – Witches  \nThursday 12th February 6-7pm – Medusa \nThursday 26th February 6-7pm – Athena \nThursday 5th March 6-7pm – Eve & Lilith \nTickets cost £18.

SUMMARY:The English House with Dan Cruickshank at Pallant House Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an illuminating talk from historian Dan Cruickshank about the research and stories behind his latest book The English House. Discover the rich histories of some of England’s most fascinating homes — including our very own Pallant House! \nThis is the story of the superbly elegant early 18th century Pallant House in Chichester. It’s the story of 19 Princelet Street in Spitalfields\, built for a Huguenot silk-weaver\, ultimately a synagogue. It’s also the story of – among others – a row of two-up\, two-downs in Toxteth\, a block of flats in London’s East End\, and what Ideal Home’s magazine described in 1926 as Britain’s ‘first modern house’ – in Northampton. \nThrough these diverse buildings\, the talk explores how English homes have evolved over the centuries\, revealing not only architectural innovation but the stories of their first occupants: their aspirations\, their struggles\, their place within society and relationship with their local community. The talk will weave these two strands together\, blending architectural and social history to share a series of brilliantly observed portraits of fascinating buildings\, and shedding more light on the history of our special gallery. \nThe talk will be followed by a book signing with books available to purchase from the Pallant Book Shop.  \nTickets cost £18 and include admission to the gallery. Book your ticket here.

SUMMARY:Some Men in London: Peter Parker in Conversation with Simon Martin
DESCRIPTION:Join author Peter Parker\, in conversation with Gallery Director Simon Martin\, as they discuss Peter’s book Some Men in London. \nThis two-volume anthology chronicles the history and reality of life for queer men in the capital between the end of the Second World War in 1945 and the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality in 1967. \nSeveral artists featured in our latest exhibition appear in the book\, which also draws upon private letters and diaries\, police and court records\, parliamentary reports\, newspaper and magazine articles\, medical journals\, films\, plays novels and poetry. It covers a wide range of viewpoints\, from both those who attacked homosexuality to those who campaigned for its decriminalisation. While detailing a community at constant risk of arrest or blackmail\, it also describes an often joyous subculture that thrived in the capital’s pubs\, clubs\, cafés and more public places of assignation. Meanwhile\, many people were unaware of\, or blind to\, the extent to which gay men enriched mainstream culture. \nPursuing this theme\, Simon and Peter will discuss not only the painters who feature in the anthology and the exhibition\, but consider other artists who made queer desire visible at a time when acting on those desires could land men in prison. \nAfter the talk\, you will be able to purchase a copy of Some Men in London and have it signed by the author. \nThis talk is part of our monthly series of Thursday Lates. Visitors are invited to enjoy our galleries and visit this season’s temporary exhibitions\, including Seeing Each Other: Portraits of Artists\, after hours and engage with other activities throughout the evening including a show and tell in the Library\, tour and drop-in life drawing workshop. \nTickets cost £18 and can be booked here.
