Philip Diggle: “I see a red door and I want it painted black.”
Rolling Stones, Paint It Black.
Memory Theatre The ‘memory theatre’ was an aspect of a science of the imagination which was practiced from Classical times up to the Renaissance. It was used for the development of memory, and also as a ‘mind-map’ – a connected symbolic space, often represented as a building, which spanned the imaginative or conceptual faculty. (digital brilliance.com) Oxford Dictionaries.
Philip Diggle is inspired by philosophical ideas, and these are used to tie together the paintings on the theme of Memory Theatre in his fifth exhibition at Highgate Gallery. The ‘stage’ for Diggle’s ‘memory theatre’ is painting; it is both the forum and the activity. In painting, memories are discovered and ordered in the doing and building of the works.
Diggle’s work is vigorously physical, with encrusted surfaces thick with oil paint. In these pieces, the paint becomes the means by which memories are enclosed, caged, covered, discovered, accreted, obscured and created. In his last Highgate Gallery show, large images of heads dominated. Some of these heads exist beneath the new works, so that creation and destruction co-exist. The process is a demonstration and investigation of the persistence yet elusiveness of memory.
Vivid red paintings are almost 3-dimensional objects revealing their making and history and physicality and – as Diggle puts it – screaming ‘I’m alive’. Works in brown, metaphorical visceral battles, attest to a more desperate survival impulse – ‘I’m still here’.
A series of larger works refer to human experience within the built environment – ‘contained’ life, a ‘theatre’. In some, the figure (highly abstracted) appears at the centre of the scenes. In these, another interest of Diggle’s emerges: rhetoric. His own mark-making becomes a metaphor for the verbal play of words in public argument.
Philip’s ideas found practical focus in his art classes. Pupils were encouraged to speak, present and respond to poetry and philosophy: a critical method which built self-awareness, confidence, and sense of context. This initiative was rolled out school-wide.
Highgate Gallery open Tue-Fri 1-5; Sat 11-4; Sun 11-5. Closed Mon.

mini mozart
Mini Mozart offers fun and interactive live music classes for toddlers and babies. The classes feature two or more live instruments; a clarinet, violin, flute, French horn, saxophone or trumpet with a piano accompanist. The idea of Mini Mozart is to get children actually listening, not just hearing. Children interact with our live musicians in a way that is impossible with recorded music.
It’s hard to say which will be your favourite part of the class; the warm up where the teachers introduce their instruments allowing your little one to get up close and touch the instruments, or the part where they reveal their suitcase full of fun props that will entice your child on an interactive musical adventure.
Packed with puppets, parachutes & percussion, bursting with Bach & bubbles, and flush with fairy tales and flutes; follow our rotating team of 4 teachers and their piano accompanist on a multi-sensory musical journey that will inspire your little one with instruments from every section of the orchestra.
“I couldn’t wait to get out and about after Alfie was born. Mini Mozart was perfect because it was interesting for both of us!” Claire, Mum to Alfie (aged 4 months)

The 10th Annual Kyffin Williams Lecture: Conservation Challenges
Jenny Williamson, Easel Painting Conservator
Jenny Williamson has come to know Kyffin Williams’s pictures well through her work at galleries across Wales. In this talk to mark Kyffin’s centenary year she will answer questions such as ‘what does an art conservator do?’ ‘what does she aim to achieve?’, ‘what techniques does she use?’ and ‘what pitfalls does she need to avoid?’
Talks take place on Mondays at 7pm in the AV Room in the Mills Centre. Refreshments, including wine, are available from 6.30 pm and afterwards.

Philip Diggle is inspired by philosophical ideas, and these are used to tie together the paintings on the theme of Memory Theatre in his fifth exhibition at Highgate Gallery. The ‘stage’ for Diggle’s ‘memory theatre’ is painting; it is both the forum and the activity. In painting, memories are discovered and ordered in the doing and building of the works.
Diggle’s work is vigorously physical, with encrusted surfaces thick with oil paint. In these pieces, the paint becomes the means by which memories are enclosed, caged, covered, discovered, accreted, obscured and created. In his last Highgate Gallery show, large images of heads dominated. Some of these heads exist beneath the new works, so that creation and destruction co-exist. The process is a demonstration and investigation of the persistence yet elusiveness of memory.
Vivid red paintings are almost 3-dimensional objects revealing their making and history and physicality and – as Diggle puts it – screaming ‘I’m alive’. Works in brown, metaphorical visceral battles, attest to a more desperate survival impulse – ‘I’m still here’.
A series of larger works refer to human experience within the built environment – ‘contained’ life, a ‘theatre’. In some, the figure (highly abstracted) appears at the centre of the scenes. In these, another interest of Diggle’s emerges: rhetoric. His own mark-making becomes a metaphor for the verbal play of words in public argument.
Philip’s ideas found practical focus in his art classes. Pupils were encouraged to speak, present and respond to poetry and philosophy: a critical method which built self-awareness, confidence, and sense of context. This initiative was rolled out school-wide.
Highgate Gallery open Tue-Fri 1-5; Sat 11-4; Sun 11-5. Closed Mon.

Memory Theatre The ‘memory theatre’ was an aspect of a science of the imagination which was practiced from Classical times up to the Renaissance. It was used for the development of memory, and also as a ‘mind-map’ – a connected symbolic space, often represented as a building, which spanned the imaginative or conceptual faculty.

mini mozart
Mini Mozart offers fun and interactive live music classes for toddlers and babies. The classes feature two or more live instruments; a clarinet, violin, flute, French horn, saxophone or trumpet with a piano accompanist. The idea of Mini Mozart is to get children actually listening, not just hearing. Children interact with our live musicians in a way that is impossible with recorded music.
It’s hard to say which will be your favourite part of the class; the warm up where the teachers introduce their instruments allowing your little one to get up close and touch the instruments, or the part where they reveal their suitcase full of fun props that will entice your child on an interactive musical adventure.
Packed with puppets, parachutes & percussion, bursting with Bach & bubbles, and flush with fairy tales and flutes; follow our rotating team of 4 teachers and their piano accompanist on a multi-sensory musical journey that will inspire your little one with instruments from every section of the orchestra.
“I couldn’t wait to get out and about after Alfie was born. Mini Mozart was perfect because it was interesting for both of us!” Claire, Mum to Alfie (aged 4 months)
