All the World’s a Stage – Theatre and its histories in art history – Northampton Museum and Art Gallery

Northampton Museum And Art Gallery 4-6 Guildhall Rd,, Northampton, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom

Art history lecture series Friday 30 September – Friday 21 October 10.15am - 12.15pm £6 per lecture or £20 for the whole series ticket (includes tea/coffee and biscuits) Enactment, the public display of theatre and makebelieve, have long been part of human social and religious interaction, fostering communal participation and understanding as well as different forms of interpretations and ways of seeing. Join us as we explore four distinctly different phases of public display and storytelling through the art historian’s eye. Our journey starts with the enactments of medieval mystery plays, halts at the Italian Commedia dell’Arte and its importance particularly for the arts of Rococo Europe, reaching its apogee in exploring how William Hogarth and Richard Garrick immortalized the theatre. Our final session will address the use of art in the theatre of war. Please note that this lecture series runs in conjunction with the current exhibition at Abington Park Museum which until December 2022 charts the history of Northampton’s Masque theatre group. Booking essential.

Vulcan Works 34-38 Guildhall Rd, northampton, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom

Artist Adam Moore will present a workshop that combines space, body, movement and art. He will be leading a 3 hr session in which participants are invited to explore the relationship between interior and exterior spaces, the emotions that bodies and places hold, and ways by which transitions from stillness to movement, from silence to talking, can open up new ways of engaging with the spaces we inhabit. The workshop will begin with an exercise that combines mindful awareness and the movement of bodies inside the temporary gallery space at Vulcan Works, proceeded by a group walk through Beckets Park. The session will end with a drawing and painting exercise, in which participants will be invited to express their experiences. Adam Moore is a British-St. Lucian artist from east London explores themes of multiculturalism, unity and resilience at the intersectional discourses and embodied explorations of sustainability.
