> Against Anti-Intellectualism sets out to interrogate the production of knowledge and in doing so, parody what intellectualism has come to mean in a world that is increasingly referred to by some Intellectual individuals as post-post modern.
>
> Andro Semeiko extends a series of comic paintings & painterly blobs as a theatrical Mise-en-scène. The largest of the work findings its form as a triptych that nods to the 18th century work of Giovanni Battista Piranesi and winks to the architectural nuances of SWG3 while pointing a jocular finger at pan historical, chauvinistic attitudes toward technology and culture.
>
> After using the gallery as a film studio environment, Calum Stirling offers a semblance of plywood flats which allude to French interior design from the 1920's. Working with Barry Burns & Ewan Hunter, Stirling has directed a new artist video for two characters, set and props filmed during install. This features alongside various new and incidental works that stem from the artists research pursuits in Pochoir illustration technique, Technicolor stage design and the absurd super yachts of the art collecting elite to name but a few.

> A limited edition of 100 copies of July 4th, 2011: For Derek Raymond and Grant Morrison, With Love and Admiration and in the Staunchest Hopes That Their August Spirits Shall Never Once More Again Perish from the Face of This, Our Greenest, Bluest Earth, 2011, a diagnostic new book by Jarett Kobek will be available from the gallery during the exhibition.

AHM
STATE OF PLAY: ART AND CULTURE IN SCOTLAND TODAY

AHM's third and final State of Play: Art and Culture in Scotland Today symposium will bring together the main themes of previous symposia in a debate about the role of art and culture in shaping Scotland's future. A key element of the day will be the spoken delivery of one-minute artist manifestos where artists have the opportunity to give voice to their concerns and ambitions about where they feel visual art stands today and what the future might hold.

Speakers are Gerry Hassan, a leading writer and critic on culture and politics, Jenny Brownrigg Exhibition Director The Glasgow School of Art, artist Ross Sinclair and Jean Urquhart MSP. Gerry Hassan, the main speaker, has consistently argued the case for cultural change and transformation "It is time to start living dangerously and take risks. To think and act beyond tribes and labels. Instead, we need to develop new forms of engagement, discussion and debate, developing spaces, forums and places which aid this. This is time for humility, courage and listening, for trying a different kind of politics. It is time to start living, breathing and taking part in the new Scotland."

The Symposium will take place this Saturday, 1 October, at Dundee Contemporary Arts.

Time: 11:00 - 16:00

Price: £10.00/£5.00

Lecture by Professor David Wood: 29th September 2011

> Thursday, 29 September at 4 p.m.
> Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities, Hope Park Square
>
> Lecture by Professor David Wood (W. Alton Jones Professor of Philosophy, Professor of European Studies, and Professor of Art, Vanderbilt University):
>
> "Is it Time for Art?"
>
> Abstract: "Does art does still matter, or is it, in terms of any real significance, as Hegel said, 'a thing of the past'? I argue that the major challenges of our time are tied up with the aporias of representation that art is especially equipped to help us think through."

Glasgow's skyline will alter over the next few years as the city's iconic, Red Road Flats are demolished. This year, a flat in one of the 31 storey tower blocks is open to the public. Exhibition and display of the stories of the Red Road Flats communities, gathered through the Red Road Cultural project. Fantastic views from 23rd floor! (lift available). Designed in 1962 by Sam Bunton & Associates for Glasgow Corporation, the Red Road Flats were constructed between 1964 and 1969 as an architectural solution to Glasgow's post war housing shortage. At the time they were the tallest blocks in Europe and the first to be built in Glasgow using steel frame construction.
