SUMMARY:KQ Network Event: Preparing for a second outbreak with local hospitals
DESCRIPTION:Please email the Knowledge Quarter team to register your interest in attending this event. \nThe Knowledge Quarter’s Supply Chain network will hear from two hospital trusts in our geography\, University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust (St Pancras hospital)\, about their logistical preparations for another outbreak in coronavirus cases. \nDuring the spring\, many Knowledge Quarter partners mobilized resources at a local level to support hospitals and hospital staff battling a surge in coronavirus cases. Our partners freed up parking spaces\, supplied personal protective equipment and even developed COVID-19 testing pipelines. \nThis virtual session will consolidate the lessons from the spring\, and add further resilience to future planning in the event of another significant outbreak of cases. By the end of the session partners will have a clear idea of what resources they can offer in support of the hospitals\, and of how\, as a network\, we can be responsive and innovative to the demands of the situation. \nThe Knowledge Quarter Supply Chain network is made up of professionals working in logistics\, procurement\, estates\, facilities\, waste and sustainability. Although the session will focus on support from a supply chain and logistics perspective\, we welcome the contribution of senior staff from across the wider KQ network with an interest in closer coordination with other KQ organisations and local hospitals on this issue (that might include staff who were organising to produce PPE supplies in-house\, for example). \nConfirmed speakers and agenda: \nSt Pancras Hospital / Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust \n\nDavid Curren – Deputy Director of Nursing\, St Pancras Hospital\n\nBuilding a testing facility and in-house PPE production \n\nJames Fawsitt – Head of Logistics\, Francis Crick Institute\nJames Callaghan – Head of Supply Chain\, UCLH\nClemency Elliot – Healthcare Planner\, UCLH\n\nFuture planning \n\nKate Petts – Deputy Director of Strategy\, UCLH\nRachel Styles – Senior Property Services Manager\, UCLH\n\nThere will be opportunity for attendees to discuss practicalities and barriers to logistical support\, and share any relevant work and accomplishments over the spring/summer period. \nThursday 24 September\, 10:00-11:30 \nPlease email the Knowledge Quarter team to register your interest in attending this event. \n

SUMMARY:A Secret Beauty: The Spirit of Japanese Maki-e (11 July - 21 September)
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of the Lacquer Work of Koyanagi Tanekuni.\nLacquer has been used in Japan for almost 10\,000 years to protect and decorate objects\, such as wood\, bamboo\, earthenware\, and textiles.  Its resistance to moisture and degradation make it a useful coating for utensils\, storage containers\, furniture\, sculpture and wooden architecture. \nAs a decorative medium\, lacquer has had a high status in Japan.  The lacquerware decorated in gold and silver particles known as makie\, which was first introduced in the 8th century\, is a culmination of Japanese aesthetic sensibility and purity.  The value and prestige of lacquerware is shown by the status of its patrons\, which included emperors\, nobilities\, shoguns and daimyos. \nFind out more here.\nAbout Koyanagi Tanekuni\nThe artist\, Koyanagi Tanekuni studied makie and Japanese aesthetics under three holders of the title Ningen kokukō (‘Intangible Cultural Property’ also known as ‘Living National Treasure’). As a renowned makie artist for the past 50 years\, Koyanagi has been a regular exhibitor at the “Japan Traditional Art Crafts Exhibition”\, as well as contributing works to many group and one-man exhibitions. He has also actively been involved in the conservation and preservation of national cultural properties and treasures in Japan\, such as the preservation of the Chuson-ji temple\, a UNESCO World Heritage site.   For half a century\, he has produced both traditional and contemporary lacquer work maintaining the highest technical and artistic standards. \nAbout the Brunei Gallery\nThe Brunei Gallery is an exciting venue in central London that hosts a programme of changing contemporary and historical exhibitions from Asia\, Africa and the Middle East. The Gallery’s aim is to present and promote cultures from these regions and to be a student resource and public facility.
