SUMMARY:Women of Aktion
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition sharing the story of the German Revolution 1918 and reclaiming the voices of the female revolutionaries who have\, until now\, been hidden from the official narrative. In November 1918\, Germany erupted with a revolution which led to the establishment of the first democracy on German soil\, the end of oppressive censorship\, and the end of the war. \nAll across Germany\, people took to the streets demanding peace\, bread and a new political system\, and among them were many women. This exhibition uncovers the hidden voices of the female revolutionaries and shares their eyewitness accounts. What kind of a world did they want and how did they seek to achieve it? Remembering women’s anti-war protest and revolutionary roles are important for activism today to give women back their radical history and remind us that political gains have never been wrested from the powerful and privileged without vocal\, organised pressure and collective action\, and that nothing has been won or defended without persistence\, often over many decades. \nFree- please drop in

SUMMARY:Whose Knowledge Matters
DESCRIPTION:Whose knowledge matters when we represent the city? Who decides what land to protect or destroy\, whose heritage to celebrate\, whose stories to tell and who gets ‘seen’ in the visual and spatial record of the city? This exhibition presents a series of counter-maps to explore different histories and residents’ knowledge from across Greater Manchester. Maps are only one way of seeing the city\, just as statues and plaques represent a mere fraction of our history and heritage in our diverse and divergent urban spaces. Counter-maps trouble and disrupt formal representations of the city which map physical locations but blank residents’ memories\, hopes and ideas. \nThis exhibition will present different kinds of maps to show what matters to residents of Greater Manchester\, produced as part of a collaborative research process with local groups. We aim to provoke reflection on whose knowledge matters in the context of a vast and rapidly changing urban landscape. \nYou can take part by interacting with the exhibition to tell us what histories\, heritage\, protests and people matter to you and how these can be better valued\, or coming to one of our events #KnowledgeMattersGM \nFree – please drop in

SUMMARY:Made in Manchester Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Visit our art installation which was commissioned to celebrate the multilingual poem ‘Made in Manchester’.  Local artist\, Emma Martin worked with nine schools to create this artwork\, with around 200 pupils creating colourful portraits of classmates onto the multiple-language verses of the Made in Manchester poem.  These portraits were cut and reformed into a finished art piece. \nLocal poet\, Zahid Hussain created his original Made in Manchester poem in English.  This was used as inspiration for a community project run by Read Manchester\, inviting local residents and school children to write some lines in response in both English and a second language/mother tongue.  From the hundreds of entries received\, sixty-three languages were selected. These entries were interwoven to create a multilingual Made in Manchester poem which will be revealed to the public on 11 June. \nFree – please drop in

DESCRIPTION:A powerful exhibition by Manchester based photographer\, Allie Crewe\, whose work is “highly rated\, sincere\, poignant and classical “\, Magnum Photography. There is nothing linear about femininity – or what it means to be a woman – in the 21st century. Sex and gender are not limited to the monolithic paradigm of genetics; they are informed by something intangible\, and it this essence of the female paradox that makes Allie Crewe’s work as relevant as it is important.

SUMMARY:World War I's Hidden Voices
DESCRIPTION:India\, Africa\, the West Indies and recruitment through culture explored in two parallel exhibitions: \nFrom the Shadows of War and Empire \nA documentary exhibition by Southern Voices \nFew know about how European powers brought colonies into World War I\, took resources from these countries and took the war to ‘fronts’ outside Europe.  An exhibition which finally tells this major part of the story from the colonies’ point of view.  We focus on India\, the West Indies\, German and British East Africa\, and Nigeria – the British Colonies. \n  \nTHE POPPY RETAKE (v3) \nA video art installation by Kooj Chuhan \nModern war propaganda began with World War I which obscured its pointlessness and deep colonial connections\, while pretending to be the ‘war to end all wars’.  This artwork explores coercion into war\, involving an African woman working for a war-themed park.  She finds herself caught between colonial narratives\, spirits from the dead and video war games. \n

SUMMARY:Portrait Youth Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Manchester Metropolitan University’s Manchester Fashion Institute is involved in an exciting new project that explores the individual and civic identities of Greater Manchester’s young people through style\, fashion and dress. \nAcademics Jo Jenkinson\, John Earnshaw and Zoë Hitchen have been working with young people to establish how clothing can be used as a catalyst for self-awareness and personal expression\, capturing portraits of each participants’ identity. \nPhotographs from the Portrait Youth project will on display at an exhibition at Manchester Central Library\, opening on Monday 9th October\, as part of the Design Manchester DM17 festival. \nThe exhibition features portraits of 14 members of the Manchester Youth Council (MYC) who attended interactive workshops hosted by the University in February. MYC were the first group to be photographed for the project. Participants were asked to style themselves using their own clothing or artefacts in a way that represented their identities and to reflect upon\, and articulate\, their current\, past and future selves. \nSupported by Greater Manchester Combined Authority.
