Last Push

Well Thursday is here and our last day for the big push !
Most paintings are ready and hung and the the mill space has been transformed into a beautiful
Contemporary Art Gallery.David Mach’s Art work arrives today from London and Robyn Woolston’s installation is almost completed.
We are looking forward to the PV and the interaction with guests viewing the space/curated work for the very first time.

Filming by the BBC in Facon Mill to be aired October 2012.

Don’t forget to come along to the PV Friday 6pm – 9pm 18th May 2012

We had an excellent meeting with Robyn Woolston at Falcon Mill yesterday. We was expecting Robyn to bring architectural plans for drawings and measurements but the architectural plans are the installation! A new installation never seen before.
Robyn Woolston said quote “fascinating recce today in anticipation of next weeks opening.”

The Art Catalogue is now in the process of its finally editing stage before it goes to press, all very exciting and we looking forward to the finished copy.

Catalogues will be on sale from the night of the private view and then during normal opening hours of the exhibition.

Works, which we have already received, include four digital prints from Ed Pien and two-piece ‘Opium Dreams’ Amanda Rae.

We are looking forward to meeting Robyn Woolston tomorrow morning, as Robyn’s work is site specific.

This visit will give Robyn chance to draw up her intentions on architectural plans.

Kerry Phippen’s work arrives this Friday and all other works to be delivered on Monday 14 May, then the curate begins.

It is going to a hyperactive nine days till the Private View but as the committee group, we can assure you all that it will certainly be worth all of the hard work and a definite must to visit the show.

The private view will be opened by an exciting Celebrity Guest on Friday 18^th May 2012 from 6pm to 9pm.

The exhibition will be open to the public with Free Admission each Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 12noon to 5pm, from Saturday 19^th May, culminating on the Bolton Festival of Arts weekend on Sunday 17^th June 2012.
