Join us for the first draft of a newly commissioned work by Paul Becker which will continue to explore themes within the ‘Space Release’ programme at the Stephenson Works building throughout 2013. Becker’s project follows a series of exhibitions, screenings and events surrounding Emma Hart’s ‘TO DO’ and introduces itself preceding Ruben Grilo’s ‘The Need For Speed’. The first edition of FLOOR/CEILING/WINDOW/WALL will take the form of a performed reading on the factory floor of The Stephenson Works. The work will continue through a series of adaptations, each a revision by Becker for a different situation, evolving through his authorial process. Paul Becker is a Newcastle-based artist and writer. Recent projects include The Cat, Carpeted (with FormContent), at Le Salon, Brussels, Auto Italia Live Double Dip Concession at ICA, London, Sincerely, how am I talking? at Hollybush Gardens, London and Festival Robert Walser in Newcastle (all 2012). Along with Francesco Pedraglio and Alex Cecchetti, Becker is currently editing Cadavere Quotidiano, a selection of texts by contemporary artists and writers (including Becky Beasley, Katrina Palmer, Ed Atkins and Michael Dean) to be published early in 2013.FREE EVENT BUT MUST BE BOOKED http://spacerelease12.eventbrite.co.uk/
