The Conservatives focus on improving support for the arts outside London and new cultural development fund, while the Liberal Democrats place heavy focus on the arts in education.
This is the point we have all been waiting for….the final show…. a major marker of the completion of our degrees. Yesterday started to throw up some technical problems for me and I realised that with a bit more fore-thought, […]
This week’s selection, taken from the a-n Degree Shows Guide 2017 listings, features 10 shows opening across England, Wales and Scotland, and includes University of Worcester, Dundee University, the Slade, and Swansea College of Art
It’s nearly the end of a three-year process and various thoughts and feelings are buzzing around in my head. I never, ever, saw myself completing (or ever starting!) a degree in Fine Art, but here I am at 57 years […]
This year’s John Ruskin Prize celebrates the ‘artist as polymath’, with a shortlist of 26 artists and makers.
I have spent the past week chasing up the equipment Lee has suggested we need to record sound in the studio and outdoors. This is the list: a digital recorder (with windshield for field recording if it has built in […]
Since my previous post a couple of weeks ago, quite a few things have been happening. An application I submitted for a place on a peer review session was successful: co-hosted by James Lowther of Berwick Visual Arts and North East Photography Network‘s […]
Between the 7th July and 30th December 2017, 80 Contemporary British Paintings will go on display in 4 Chinese art museums for the very first time.
I’m my studio today finally going through all my project receipts, adding things up and reflecting on the 2 exhibitions I’ve just finished. The last month and a half have been taken up with finishing and installing the project I […]
Alchemists worked in teams which were usually one woman and one man: sister/brother, daughter/father, wife/husband because they believed both anima and animus had to be drawn on in the creative process. I am sure there were transgressive teams that were […]
A quick extra note on the Hackney Outdoor Leg – though my commuting route is the same each day I take it, the number of cameras that document me varies. A good example of this is the first CCTV camera […]
The ‘spaceship’ is too big for the garage so i am outside in the hot sun whacking aluminium to make it fit. Storms keep passing, dumping inches of rain in minutes. 1300 screws, nearly 2000 rivets, 5 sheets of birch […]
For the latest in our ongoing Scene Report series, Maddy Hearn highlights the changing cultural landscape of Exeter in Devon.
Curated by Christine Macel, this year’s International exhibition at the Venice Biennale is conceived as a series of nine ‘pavilions’ that span the Giardini and Arsenale sites. Pippa Koszerek finds thoughtful inquiry in an exhibition that at times can feel muddled and historically naive.
This blog will document my experiments with using colonial commodities to make new work (making inks from cacao, coffee, charcoal, mica, tea; paper from sugar cane, cotton and rice fibres)
It’s been a very busy couple of weeks but we got there. All ready and looking gorgeous, on time. So much has happened it’s hard to think back in order. Firstly, the customs problems did persist, with one box arriving […]
Despite a recent decision to let blog writing take a bit of a back seat, I feel compelled to record details of two exhibitions I managed to see on a recent fleeting visit to Cambridge, both of which left a […]
What do people do with the original work of art that their giclee prints are made from? e.g. You make 150 giclee prints at half the size of the original yet somebody wants the original…do you sell the original or […]
