Over 100 divine female figurines from ancient Mediterranean civilisations have been gathered together for the first time ever in this rich and fascinating exhibition. On loan from Europe’s leading museums, the figures represent images of the divine female in all her many forms. Exhibited in the majestic Sala Tinell throne room, the show features voluptuous 20,000 year-old ‘Venus’ figurines, as well as an abundance of goddesses from such diverse cultures as Anatolia, Mesopotamia, Israel, Palestine, Cyprus, Crete and the classical world of Greece and Rome. Goddesses of life and death, idols, amulets or simply representations of the female form, this unique exhibition provides intriguing insight into our origins as well as our habits of worship.

Courtney Love’s back in New York, touting Hole’s album ‘Celebrity Skin’ – and that’s a subject she knows something about. Once the vengeful banshee of feminism scorned, the merry widow of Kurt Cobain has segued almost seamlessly into her role as a plastic surgery-surviving Tinseltown luminary more likely to be seen in a Versace commercial than at a grrrl riot. The same transformation is evident on the album, with Hole’s signature guitar rock giving way to more contemplative lyrics and arrangements signifying an all-too-clichéd ‘growing up’. Still, the reinvention is fascinating, so book early.
