SUMMARY:Nature Morte: The Extermination of Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:Nature Morte: The Extermination of Ukraine is the result of extensive research by British artist Piers Secunda. \nApproaching the deliberate destruction of cultural history and national identity through the depiction of traditional Ukrainian dishes and their ingredients\, at first sight Nature Morte is an exhibition of still lifes. Based on photographs taken by Secunda during visits to Ukraine in 2024 and 2026\, the paintings were made with ink he produced from charcoal gathered in Kharviv\, the site of the first Ukrainian Government building destroyed by Russia’s invasion in 2022. \nArranged as pyramids to reflect the power structures behind the kidnapping and forced military training of Ukranian children\, and the hierarchies behind the targeted bombing and systematic looting of cultural artefacts\, the paintings act as portals to an archive of evidence. Reached via QR codes\, the names and faces of the perpetrators are presented alongside extensive supporting material. \nThe exhibition is complemented by a map of more than five thousand points of damage to cultural sites recorded across Ukraine\, and a 40-minute documentary by Secunda’s long-term collaborator David Miller. \n  \nFor more details\, click HERE

SUMMARY:Jan Zatorsky: Prague – A Playground for David Černý
DESCRIPTION:This outdoor exhibition by photographer Jan Zatorsky complements David Černý: The Glorious 90s in Prague. Reprinted by Prusa Research\, on display at Vitrínka Gallery. While the gallery exhibition brings Černý’s iconic works to London in new 3D-printed forms\, Zatorsky’s photographs take you back to Prague\, where these works have become part of the city’s contemporary landscape. \nYou know the Czech capital\, Prague. She – because we call her the Mother – has of course the charming panoramas of historic buildings. And serves her visitors magnetic views of Prague Castle\, the Charles Bridge and many other sights. \nBut if you give the city a second look\, you will see a different face – with contemporary art scattered around\, in between historic buildings and the new ones too. Czech artist David Černý\, the forever ‘enfant terrible’ of Czech art\,  has his signature on many of them. In fact\, he has shaped the contemporary layer of Prague’s look like no other Czech artist. \nCzech photojournalist Jan Zatorsky\, holder of several Czech Press Photo awards\, has walked in Černý’s footprints in Prague to guide you through. His photo story from the Czech capital presents Černý’s striking pieces\, that almost shout at you with their size\, and also the less visible ones that are there to catch you by surprise – but both ways\, always make you think. \nThis photographic display accompanies the Czech Centre London exhibition of David Černý’s works\, seen around Prague\, in 3D models printed by Prusa Research\, a company that started modestly in the Czech Republic in 2012 and grew into one of the global leaders in 3D printer manufacturing. \nAt both venues you will see Černý‘s giant Babies sculptures (first made in 1999)\, which climb the Žižkov district TV tower and have already become one of the city’s symbols. The story of the legendary Pink Tank (first painted by Černý in the bright colour in 1991 to confront the remnants of Soviet political dominance and propaganda after the fall of Communism) has new chapters  written into today‘s landscape of Prague. Watch out\, so you don’t trip over it! Černý‘s more recent works include The Butterfly Effect\, honouring the Czechoslovak RAF pilots who fought alongside the Brits in the Second World War\, and the rotating head of Prague author Franz Kafka\, Instagram’s favourite sight in the Czech capital. \nDavid Černý was born in Prague in 1967 to a family of artists. He later studied at the Academy of Applied Arts in Prague between 1988 and 1996. In 1990\, he received the Special Prize at the Kortrijk Biennale\, Belgium. One year later\, he began his residential scholarship in Boswil after receiving a grant from the Swiss Government. In 1994\, he moved to New York as an artist in residence at the PS1 gallery. Two years later\, he completed the Whitney Independent Study Program. In 1996\, he won another grant\, this time from the Pollack-Krasner Foundation in the United States\, and in 2000\, he received the Jindřich Chalupecký Award for the country’s most promising visual artist under the age of 35. In 2001\, he founded Meetfactory\, a non-profit international centre for contemporary art. He lives in Prague and is the proud father of his daughter\, Elektra. \nJan Zatorsky is a Czech photographer\, who was born into the family of a protestant pastor in Northern Moravia in 1957. He was free to work as a photographer only after the fall of Communism in Czechoslovakia in 1989. For most of the 1990s\, when people without links to the Communist regime were needed\, especially in the security forces\, he held high positions at the Ministry of the Interior and the Police. Since 2000 he was the chief photographer of the Mediacop publishing house\, which had the influential weekly magazine Týden in its portfolio. Later he became the chief photographer for the Lidové noviny a daily Czech newspaper with a democratic tradition dating back to the 19th century. \nThis exhibition is part of the 30th Made in Prague Festival organised by Czech Centre London. \nOutdoor exhibition on the fence of the Czech Embassy 26 – 30 Kensington Palace Gardens\, London W8 4QY\nFree access 24/7 \nVisit David Černý: The Glorious 90s in Prague. Reprinted by Prusa Research at the Czech Centre’s Vitrínka Gallery to see newly created 3D-printed versions of Černý’s iconic works\, and also stop by the Bouda Gallery to explore Landscape\, an exhibition of student works from the Studio of Ceramics and Porcelain at the Academy of Arts\, Architecture and Design in Prague (UMPRUM).

SUMMARY:Portobello Film Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:For more than three decades Portobello Film Festival has been celebrating independent film making and festival culture at the original epicentre of the British Underground. Free to enter and free to attend\, the festival is an annual reminder of a time when Ladbroke Grove was to London what San Francisco was to America. \nOne of this year’s highlights is a feature on Laura Del-Rivo\, Britain’s first female beatnik author whose debut novel provided the inspiration for Michael Winner’s West 11. Supplementing her income by trading on Portobello Road Market while continuing to write about the changing life of the neighbourhood\, she was affectionately known as “The Tights Lady”. \nA curated evening on 17 September is dedicated to Pink Floyd and to collective art-making. Original shorts from the late 60s are shown alongside a newly released documentary on The Exploding Galaxy\, a group of artists\, musicians\, poets and dancers with a shared creative spirit. \nOne Foot in the Grove revived the spirit of psychedelia\, punk and 80s graffiti with a spectacular display of murals\, giant sculptures and fire-breathing robots under the Westway in 2009. While most traces have long since disappeared\, a ceramic mural by Carrie Reichardt and the Treatment Rooms Collective remains as a permanent reminder. Members of the collective return with a group show at The Muse to run alongside Portobello Film Festival. The exhibition opening party on 10 September is accompanied by a screening of Vive Le Punk\, Danny Garcia’s documentary marking 50 years of punk by following four bands still active today. \nThe opening night at The Gate Picturehouse on 3 September is the only ticketed event. There is no need to book for more than 200 new films. Tomorrow’s cinema today – all free to attend!

SUMMARY:Broken Ivy/Fence Off | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Broken Ivy\nMusic: Florence Lloyd\nLibretto: Vivian Bayliss \nFence Off\nMusic: Ruben Doda\nLibretto: Rebekah King \nBroken Ivy & Fence Off are a pair of chamber operas created by emerging composers from the Royal Academy of Music.\nThe evening brings two worlds onto one stage: a vivid\, fast-moving programme where different musical languages\, cultural perspectives and theatrical styles collide. \nIn “Broken Ivy”\, English folklore becomes ecological myth: nature is not the backdrop\, but the protagonist\, telling a story of human overreach and its natural nemesis. \nIn “Fence Off!”\, a fencing duel becomes an operatic battle of consciousness: two women trapped on opposite sides of perfection\, where every movement exposes vulnerabilities\, privilege\, and ambition. \nCome to the second show this evening for two more operas for an evening moving between folklore\, psychological drama\, political urgency\, and domestic comedy\, The Breaking Point offers opera with pace\, contrast\, and sharp theatrical images. It asks what happens when the forces around us — nature\, language\, competition\, media\, love — stop staying in the background and start to break the sense of what we are. \n  \nGet your tickets HERE

SUMMARY:Fire Fire | Arcola Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Today\, Eddie is holding a memorial for his brother at a park near their council estate. Today is also the day Paige decides to close the road to this countryside sanctuary in a protest about climate action. \n\nNaturally\, when the pair meet\, sparks fly\, insults are traded in a fiery exchange\, and they expect never to see each other again. \nBut they do. Again. And again. And again. \nUntil they feel there’s no choice but to join forces and take drastic action together. \nFire Fire is an exciting\, moving drama about people taking big risks to protest\, people who love to hate them\, and how some people discover they have more in common than they think.

SUMMARY:Sing4 Nok6/Meet the Philips | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Sing4 Nok6\, and other broken things\nMusic: Ng Kwun Ho / Jerry Fryderyk\nLibretto: Courtney Cousins \nMeet The Philips\nMusic: Alessandro Mackinnon-Botti\nLibretto: Wilkie Robson \nSing4 Nok6\, and other broken things and Meet The Philips are a pair of chamber operas created by emerging composers from the Royal Academy of Music.\nThe evening brings two worlds onto one stage: a vivid\, fast-moving programme where different musical languages\, cultural perspectives and theatrical styles collide. \nIn “Sing4 Nok6\, and other broken things”\, cultural erasure becomes a live struggle between imposed and remembered\, where singing itself becomes resistance. \nIn “Meet The Philips”\, an entire marriage unfolds in one domestic space\, with the TV as the couple’s third wheel: comic\, invasive\, intimate\, and quietly devastating. \nCome to the first show this evening for two more operas for an evening moving between folklore\, psychological drama\, political urgency\, and domestic comedy\, The Breaking Point offers opera with pace\, contrast\, and sharp theatrical images.

SUMMARY:Frankenstein | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Notated music and performance: CN Lester\nElectronic music and soundscapes: ILĀ\nLibretto\, direction\, spoken word performance: Jamie Hale \nThis 60 minute hybrid work strips Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein to its core question: is it right to create new life in a fractured and suffering world? \nCombining sung voice\, spoken voice\, and electronica\, Frankenstein’s Offie-Award-winning proof of concept opened to universal critical and audience praise at Barbican in November 2025. Now\, this full new interpretation of the classic text marries notated music and operatic vocals from CN Lester (‘Captivating\, hypnotic’ – Opera) with libretto\, direction and spoken word performance from Jamie Hale (Evening Standard Director / Theatremaker of the Year 2021 – ‘fantastic’ – Hannah Gadsby) and electronic musical soundscapes from ILĀ (‘a masterclass in sound design’ – Attitude). Shifting and distorting\, Frankenstein is neither opera\, nor sound installation\, nor straight theatrical performance\, but a hybrid expression of embodiment that puts trans and disabled voices at the heart of what it is to be monstered\, and what it is to be free. \n  \nGet your tickets HERE

SUMMARY:International Translation Day Editorial Slam with English PEN (In person)
DESCRIPTION:This participatory event\, in partnership with English PEN\, sees two editors take part in an ‘editorial slam’. Based on the ‘translation slam’ model\, it explores the collaborative acts of writing\, translating and editing by asking Sceptre Editorial Director Ansa Khan and Robina Pelham Burn to edit the same passage of text\, translated from the Arabic\, a language in which neither of them read. \nDuring the event\, they will see each other’s edits for the first time\, and with the text’s translator\, Nashwa Nasreldin\, who will chair the conversation\, discuss their choices and the rationales behind them. The audience\, including translators and fellow editors\, will have the chance to discuss their edits\, exploring the particular challenges and opportunities of editing work in translation; how to edit well when a text is deeply rooted in cultural\, linguistic\, or geographical specificity; and what editors must hold onto and what they must give up. \nInternational Translation Day (ITD) is celebrated annually on 30 September with a programme of events and workshops from English PEN\, taking place throughout September online and in person in London and Norwich. \nEnglish PEN is one of the world’s oldest human rights organisations\, championing the freedom to write and read. They are the founding centre of PEN International\, a worldwide writers’ association with 130 centres in more than 90 countries. With the support of their members – a community of readers\, writers\, and activists – they protect freedom of expression whenever it is under attack\, support writers facing persecution around the world\, and celebrate contemporary international writing with literary prizes\, grants\, events and an online magazine https://pentransmissions.com/ \nThis event will take place in person in the New Room at The London Library. Please see our Event Access Guidelines before you arrive. Doors (and the bar) will open at 5.30pm for a 6pm start.

SUMMARY:History Has No Safe Word | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Professor Nathan Zangari is fading away.\nOnce voted the sexiest professor on BBC2’s Open University\, his highly celebrated archeo-linguistics paper on “Graffiti\, Women and the Walls of Pompeii” is now but a distant memory.\nNow\, he can’t sleep\, he can’t get published\, and… he can’t get laid.\nAt the sleep-study clinic that he’s enrolled at\, they observe him talking in his sleep\, seemingly an intermediary for a long-forgotten Pompeian girl. \nWhen overambitious student\, Callie\, offers to capture his mumblings\, they both find themselves sucked into the very real lives of those on the edge of destruction\, some 2000 years ago. \n“… masterful stagecraft … immersive and engaging throughout… a highly accomplished piece of writing and performance… a visceral portrayal of life in Pompeii on the eve of the infamous Vesuvian eruption in 79 CE. \nBrown clearly knows his history\, and the way he brings Pompeii to life is nothing short of astonishing. There is a gripping action scene in the second half that had my wife reaching out her arms to intervene\, so immersed was she in the story. \nIf historical drama is your thing\, you’re in for a treat.”  Fringe Review\, 2026. \n  \nGet your tickets HERE
