2022 _ HOUSE News Week 43

2022 - Week 43

Lovely members, we hope everyone had a fabulous time these last two weeks and we are not surprised not too many updates on openings or such for this week reached us given that everyone is probably happy to be home, putting their feet up and cuddling their cat/ spouse/dog/flatmate or favorite book they haven't held in a while. Since we still want to feed you with little interesting bits we found you two zoom workshops. One costs a small fee, but don't we love the combination of craft, witchcraft, and art ;) learn all about Magic Dolls from our Friends at the Last Tuesday Society. For next week TikTok is a topic we still here and there get asked for advice on... and since it has been a while since we shared or did one of those how-to workshops, here is one from our friends at Yosanie and The Dots. For those not done with art fairs and travel, head to Lagos! DM us if you want in on Art x Lagos awesome program and for those staying on the couch check out the virtual fair on their website!And those in Turin for artissima: let us know, and connect for a little coffee!Also our friend over at Larry's List, Christoph published a book! If you wanna learn how to not fuck up your art world happiness, go get it/pre-order it where you get books!Anything you wanna share with us? Let us know! Much Love, stay sane,Cordelia, Maja & the Girls

Pagan Portals - Poppets and Magical Dolls by Lucya Starza

OCT 24TH 2022Month date 2022 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm CET£5 - £10 & By DonationLINK

Poppets are dolls used for sympathetic magic, and are designed in the likeness of individuals in order to represent them in spells to help, heal or harm. The word poppet comes from the Middle Ages in England, originally meaning a small doll or child, and it is still in use today as a name of endearment. The term is older than the phrase ‘Voodoodoll’ and the use of dolls to influence the fate of a person dates back much further. In Egyptian times enemies of the Pharaoh Ramses III used wax images of him to bring about his death. In the third century BC the Greek poet Theocritus wrote of how a peasant girl Simaetha used erotic magic on her absent lover Delphis to get him to return to her by melting and burning wax dolls. Poppets have also been found concealed in old houses as a form of protection. This lecture explores the history of poppets and their uses in modern witchcraft

Global HOUSE How To Not Fuck Up Your Art-World Happiness“If art is used in therapy, why do we almost need therapy when working in the art industry?LINK

The author of the book lovingly calls it a naïve attempt to make the art world a little bit happier. After living and working in the art world for the past fifteen years, Christoph Noe brought pen to paper to gather some thoughts on how to navigate in the culture industry. "It first developed foremost as a guide for myself as I continuously challenge the mission that I am on in the art world, asking myself why I am still doing what I am doing. Or sometimes, more dramatically, “If art is used in therapy, why do we almost need therapy when working in the art industry?” With a strong believe in the power of art and cultural creation and over multiple conversations and with the encouragement of my art- world crew, I came to the conclusion that these guidelines can function as a possible motivator, as a collection of thoughts or critical questions not only for myself but also for other people and collaborators working in the scene." Christoph Noe Somewhere in the art world, September 2022
