Fever is the leading global entertainment discovery platform, and has revolutionised the world of entertainment since 2015, inspiring over 40 million people every month to discover the best experiences in their cities. Fever empowers event organizers to create amazing experiences, with successful examples such as the “Candlelight Concert Series” attended by over 1 million guests, the Los Angeles based “Stranger Things: The Drive-Into Experience”, or the “Mad Hatter G&T Party” in multiple cities across the US. The programme of displays in the Gilbert and Ildiko Butler Drawings Gallery is generously supported by the International Music and Art Foundation, with additional support from James Bartos.

In the Drawings Gallery, at the same time, a focused exhibition staged in collaboration with the Henry Moore Foundation will consider Henry Moore’s celebrated Shelter drawings as the point of departure for a new reading of the artist’s fascination with images of the wall, during and immediately after World War II. A display in the Project Space will focus on The Courtauld’s rich collection of work by avant-garde British artist Vanessa Bell, one of the leading artists of the Bloomsbury Group in the early 20 th century. This display will present a selection of drawings and prints acquired by The Courtauld since 2018. Highlights include a 17 th-century Florentine drawing which will be here reunited for the first time with its left half from which it was cut at some point in its history. Female artists are significantly represented, the selection includes works by Mary Cassatt (the first by the Impressionist painter to enter the collection), Maliheh Afnan, Deanna Petherbridge and Susan Schwalb, as well as earlier watercolours. Prints by Sir Grayson Perry and Sir Frank Bowling will also feature. This exhibition, which displays around fifty paintings and watercolours from public and private collections, spanning over forty years of the artist’s career presents an opportunity for visitors this side of the Atlantic to discover an artist who, although a household name in America, is not as well known in Europe. There is no painting by Homer in a UK public collection. The exhibition is organised by the National Gallery, London, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. The Credit Suisse Exhibition Lucian Freud: New PerspectivesA devoted connoisseur of European painting and regular visitor since his earliest days in London, Lucian Freud had a close association with the National Gallery. ‘I use the gallery as if it were a doctor,’ Freud told the journalist Michael Kimmelman. The exhibition is organised by the National Gallery and the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid. Discover Manet & Eva Gonzalès Time is a very abstract concept for young children, making it difficult to grasp. Because a linear calendar offers an up-close, sequential view of the year, it establishes a clear framework for when dates and important events are occurring. It gives kids a point of reference. They can clearly see the day’s date, determine which day is yesterday, which day is tomorrow, how many days left until the weekend, how many months until their birthday, etc. How to Set Up a Linear Calendar First, print your chosen linear calendar. I like to laminate ours for extra durability. Since the linear calendar is designed to mimic a timeline, you will need a longer stretch of wall to display it. In the past we’ve placed ours in a hallway and this year it will be set up in our homeschool area. A key objective was to intervene at an early stage, before these problems became exacerbated and caused additional harm, or led to a crisis situation. The new “Holidays Around the World” linear calendar encourages you to learn about all the different holidays celebrated around the world. It’s a great way to incorporate cultural studies into your daily routine.

The first in-depth exhibition in the UK of the art of Winslow Homer (1836–1910), one of the most celebrated and admired American painters of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, is taking place at the National Gallery until 8 January 2023. Discover Manet & Eva Gonzalès' at the National Gallery is the first UK exhibition devised around the portrait of Eva Gonzalès (1870) by Édouard Manet (1832–1883). The painting, acquired by Hugh Lane, was by the early 20th century considered to be the most famous modern French painting in the UK and Ireland. This is the first in a new series of ‘Discover’ exhibitions to be staged in the National Gallery’s Sunley Room to explore well-known paintings in the collection through a contemporary lens. Acclaimed British photographer Roger Mayne (1929 – 2014) celebrated the lives of young people growing-up in his evocative documentary images in the 1950s and early 1960s. Self-taught and widely influential in the acceptance of photography as an art form, he was passionate about photographing human life as he found it – most famously the working-class communities of West London. Capturing children at play and the emerging phenomena of the swaggering teenager, Mayne discovered in the young a defining energy that perfectly embodied both the scars and radicalism of post-war Britain. Our “Claude Monet” linear calendar helps introduce children to the artwork of Claude Monet. Each painting has been selected to represent the seasons as well. Pair this linear calendar with the “Claude Monet Activity Bundle” for even more hands-on learning opportunities!While the two bodies of work, street and family, have a different tenor, they are united by a radical empathy with his subject and the desire to create a photographic image with lasting impact, sensitivity and artistic integrity. With Mayne’s post-war subjects now in their more senior years and a new generation faced with myriad crises, Mayne’s deliberations on growing up, childhood, adolescence and family feel especially poignant and timely. During his early years as a young artist in post-war London, Frank Auerbach (born 1931) produced one of his most remarkable bodies of work: a series of hauntingly beautiful, large-scale portrait heads made in charcoal. Auerbach spent months on each drawing, working and reworking them during numerous sessions with his sitters. The marks of this prolonged and vigorous process of creation are evident in the finished drawings, which are richly textured and layered. Sometimes, he would even break through the paper and patch it up before carrying on. Auerbach’s heads emerge from the darkness of the charcoal as vital and alive, having come through a lengthy period of struggle – the image repeatedly created and destroyed. The character of the drawings speaks profoundly of their times as people were remaking their lives after the destructions and upending of war. This display will present a selection of drawings on blue paper from The Courtauld’s collection, ranging from works by the Venetian Renaissance artist Jacopo Tintoretto to an Indian landscape by German-born artist Johann Zoffany.
