SUMMARY:Close the deal: The Art and Science of successful negotiation
DESCRIPTION:When: 15-19 May 2017 and 5-9 June 2017 \nCost: £4250. 20% off for Knowledge Quarter partners \nNegotiations are ubiquitous. As individuals we negotiate on a daily basis whether we are making decisions with friends and family or sealing a professional deal at work. Negotiations can range from the seemingly trivial to the very serious. \nIn business\, negotiations occur at every level; between employers and employees\, within and between firms\, between firms and government bodies\, across sectors and industries and between domestic organisations and foreign ones. And so on. Negotiations take place on matters of policy and finance – indeed negotiations can – and do – occur on anything and everything where more than one party – or “player” – is involved. \nIs this course aimed at you? \nEveryone is involved in some type of negotiation on a daily basis\, and so this course will be beneficial to a wide range of people from different organisations and backgrounds. \nIt may be of special relevance to senior managers and c-suite colleagues as well as to lawyers and individuals who are involved with commercial litigation\, dispute resolution and mergers. \nColleagues who work in sales\, purchasing and/or procurement will also find this course useful\, as will consultants who work client-side and officials who are involved in BREXIT and other policy-related negotiations. \nNo prior knowledge of game theory or economics is required and everything will be taught in plain English. Where technical concepts and tools are introduced\, this will be done cognisant of the fact that it is a non-specialist audience and will be delivered by people who have experience of doing exactly this. \nNot only that; this course is led by top Warwick University staff from a leading Department of Economics\, ranked in the top 3 in all major UK league tables; and the course will also have sessions delivered by some world class practitioners. \nFor more information and to book yourself a place then please go to the University of Warwick website.

SUMMARY:Mr A moves in mysterious ways (New exhibition running from 15 May to 25 July)
DESCRIPTION:Birkbeck\, University of London is delighted to launch Mr A moves in mysterious ways\, an exhibition coming to the Peltz Gallery from 15 May\, displaying works from the Adamson Collection. The Adamson Collection is one of the world’s largest collections of artworks made by psychiatric patients. It consists of approximately 6\,000 paintings\, drawings and sculptural objects\, produced between 1946 and 1981 by the residents of Netherne\, a long-stay British mental hospital\, under the guidance of professional artist Edward Adamson. \nThis exhibition displays selected works by eight people\, chosen for their distinctive visual styles and particular histories. For the first time\, these works will be showcased under the artists’ names: JP Senitt\, Thea Hart\, Helen Greig\, Mary Bishop\, Martin Birch\, Rolanda Polonsky\, Gwyneth Rowlands and Ron Hampshire. \nDr Fiona Johnstone\, Associate Research Fellow in Art History at Birkbeck said: “By presenting these individuals as artists\, rather than as un-named and undifferentiated psychiatric patients\, and framing their objects as artworks\, the exhibition aims to highlight the aesthetic\, personal and historical dimensions of the collection\, whilst remaining sensitive to its medical and therapeutic contexts.”   \nAdamson pioneered the use of art therapy for those living with mental illness. He was initially engaged with Netherne to assist with research into the relationship between mental illness and creativity. His job was to encourage the patients to paint\, with the resulting works transferred to clinicians for analysis. After the study ended in 1951\, Adamson established an open studio where residents were allowed to come and paint freely. He rejected the diagnostic focus of the earlier experiments\, convinced that the very process of art making was therapy enough\, and that creative expression could be a tool to help people find their way back to wellness. \nThe collection interweaves a range of narratives\, including the history of the post-war mental institution\, the development of psychiatric practice in the UK\, and the origins of art therapy as a profession. It also tells a number of individual stories\, including that of Adamson himself\, and of the people who produced work under his guidance. \nThis exhibition is supported by a Wellcome/ Birkbeck ISSF Public Engagement Award. It has been curated by Dr Heather Tilley and Dr Fiona Johnstone in association with Birkbeck’s Centre for Medical Humanities.  \nFurther information can be found on the exhibition website: https://mramovesinmysteriousways.wordpress.com \nImage 1: Image caption: Helen Grieg\, The Foetus / Rebirth.

SUMMARY:Kings Cross [Remix] by Tom Marshman (show runs until 27 May 2017)
DESCRIPTION:Kings Cross [Remix] uncovers the hidden histories of LGBTQ communities in London during the 1980s.
