Emmeli's Leaving

For everyone who doesn't know, Emmeli is leaving London for 'Kalle's Kaviar', 'Keso' and 'filmjölk' (which means Sweden!). I was therefor thinking that we should meet up a final time in 'my' gallery for drinks and hugs on Sunday at 9 o' clock!
I'm aware of that people are away these days but I really hope as many as possible can make it!
See you guys there (and don't forget to bring your Turkish rugs!).

Images from the RCA show

I really enjoyed this year's RCA sculpture show. One of the criteria when they select future students is to represent a broad spectrum of what's going on in sculpture and maybe that's the reason why the show felt really diverse in materials and concerns. There was a bit of institutional critique (the guy who broke one of the walls of the building). There was performance and video. There was bronze. There was foam and wax and silicone and crap and glossy kitsch paint. There was construction. Interactive pieces. Machine-making. Secret narratives. Non-narrative. Simplicity. Complexity.

Some Interesting Reading?

http://green-anarchy.wikidot.com/technology-trauma-and-the-wild

Article a little over wrought nonetheless an interesting argument with lots of fact (?) and reference........

Also, The research that goes on within an academic institution reveals not only some interesting ideas, but also, to an extent, the 'values' of the institution itself...... So have a look at...

https://owa.arts.ac.uk/owa/WebReadyView.aspx?t=att&id=RgAAAADg/Uoja8KsTbZ7Al/XXkqFBwBSiSUJAML2TIjJXSg1JWACALjgvfFdAABSiSUJAML2TIjJXSg1JWACANjCs6FLAAAJ&attid0=EABL0Y1O46DWRYl9p2WDFMAP&attcnt=1

It will prompt you to log on to your college e mail. Once you do that it will take you on to the relevant document.

I can suggest the presentations on the morning of Tuesday 29th at High Holborn. It may look a little dry at first but I am certain that some of the ideas will provoke further thinking.


Have fun X

Bunker event



Hi all

Sorry couldnt make show...

Do you remember Hannah from the Clerkenwell road pop up earlier this year? ...she sent me this...

Hi Adrian

I would like to invite you and your students to a closing event and artist talks for our latest exhibition called Where Beats This Human Heart in a WWII air raid bunker in Dalston, this Wednesday 23rd June. The exhibition is open throughout the day from 2pm with the closing event from 6.30pm and the artists talks from 7pm.

The Bunker is situated on Abbot Street, behind the Print House and Cafe Otto (18 Ashwin Street).

Please find attached some images from the show and the press release.
And please post it on your sculpture blog.
I hope you can make it.

Best
Hannah

Once again, am not 100% that I'll go, but the bunker itself sounds worth a visit in itself
