Gi Festival 2012 Programme Launched

[http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs089/1103157500228/img/25.gif]<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoBxhMsifgQoDZ4_DJ8PEkcDusJB1siKK3abF7p9_GQg-yk1oPZtFYNMa-OnMrQWhhPSI7S5GXh3Ujj-AEpZ8eAswWCIDOuaYm4424UcY51uQV1CXZxMisvC>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2012 Festival Programme Announced
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of the UK's boldest visual arts events, the Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art returns in April 2012, bringing together exhibitions by the best international and local artists, from Turner Prize winners to the most exciting, emerging talent. The Festival builds on the successes of previous years, showcasing work by more than 130 artists in over 50 of Glasgow's best permanent and temporary exhibition venues across the length and breadth of the city.

The 18-day Festival programme includes many newly-commissioned works, including several that draw on a range of other disciplines, including dance, film, music, performance and theatre.

Under the continued Directorship of Katrina Brown, this year GI focuses more on the real, the physical and the very tangible, rather than the digital or virtual, with an emphasis on the live experience. From strong sculptural presentations by Karla Black <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoD-2U9-x5cEXNKgIobHPuXWYJzusEyPwShfXmKpgZqWtqF7x0JcuDXjffuAkVdJA5GTuw6n8BMIP9POgMUoU01XecfqdEdm5Mlxmk_QPXeNGay0TRJCKR2PKhVv8PVw_oTUgA9CDTsqjS5UjY3FwsMInoDm-TClrUwcMSfAcf17ARa3JpiLEPQJ> and Nairy Baghramian<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoCYmuJLUyBqTzqC330KXAyvERPtONMdgOZ3PS1bf24oKxE1YqbdhzOstUWl5C645wMGCsh1iISc110Vrz5Vfl_bWLqJZgJBvgdTfH2SNVht6UVux2zm1TQJvc6Ey4QJH0N_sL5AAxcIWBe9pp4ViOb9YWcs2varKa5LTzKsDYhZ1lbX1YGSImf0fL8EgKE5V8nN_zBI6MudQm26tY5UyoRq>, who each deploy distinctive materials to potent effect, to two ambitious 'performed installations' by Graham Fagen & Graham Eatough<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoB-WAKKGB3Nb7u-Lng99rjZrFscCchQdF8QWW8W6VJTEfo63UhfD-2hgUMoI67XwMmL2BVPnVSnylBgYdage1-lITrB5BzUjg0oNkrvm2EIWBPRRqfzqBc8KV7hzx5oliZC3XpMfZGxtayb1xv4FLnag1LyHKkQ9xn47KqFNnJywPu5RgLbkmLo> and Kelly Nipper<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoAn-_QjBRNiHIS6lPdhHPtKE7qL7nyM9beBvqO-rM1ZJ_raXcSXw86GxR6ejemMuI5Q-F--eGw-b55RKF0VEWU79NbONjUkS5MdhjARLKYTDEi_gfUuFZGTC35IvdKJfam8LXLxY6Z6CZi0_pcQ96Ft2L2a5Q1tvBQznGmjtnjXLY2UHiJreEoMckpM7QjuUuaoVHDbXjAakQ==> at Tramway, and 'handleable' new works by artists Corin Sworn, Mary Redmond, Camilla Low and Chris Johanson<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoA_mDGGxhUevOm5ZB_1j_1gNu-T8eGFiLT5CW5pUI8-Q-smstFrvQr4d6Q4VMwUrDTmJBrLyy60mq5ZJN-r2jIVFe1K8hqu4dlUwrIll0c9yqtHnqXa9lMai1SXl2-QJc-kyqX2f8B4TdtIHn-s_0te_vlO72n9vY2fJpeflE3r0xltTY6uaWjH> for 'Dialogue of Hands', many of the exhibitions and projects offer direct and very immediate encounters.

Time spent in and with this work is real, not edited or accelerated. This sense of real time is reflected back at us through the very tangible sense of the time and labour involved in the remarkable works of Richard Wright<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoArK6LWQdfs3WmRg1UFCkaCIEAt2G4g5nIUrUcTPpXfzS397RIWZpRx9udzn0JhduLln2hBmxXk0vWvmrrgQV8XteGrcU-ccDURIklDhzpujrCKon7lsbXUUEHlQ1H97yYon15UGyiVf42YeP_hEbpzO_3EwsbRkZSBaWAaNEk5_BcqNZGMEhCoxxgdHniICbsFdHA2P5wcCg==>, shown in the grand surroundings of Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum. While the focus on our actual experience of an artwork is amplified in Transmission's exhibition 'Six Works of Art For your Interpretation', in which the participating artists remain anonymous.

There are dozens of exhibitions and events, as well as a distinct strand of public or outdoor works, with new commissions including a permanent work by Alex Frost<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=ekg4umdab&et=1108622170947&s=768&e=001A7qrr7UnIoD63afEMfYADzDLG3iHnhVJ0UjTpjC47-mZkB3NaR4kAkfEoRrhaf8eulQY5E5ujYDIX-bxpIe9rPKHz30Q_qmOnk5IBwaHEPPUMpJxzM4rFWCRTWlwj3zlUx7CyfLSTzhaGrW_CHmv4gcCoOCIIOe1lRcQHDOhEZ4cjqkuUQH40eK9j9_kVeJV5cij4D7hAOs=> for Platform, Easterhouse.

As ever, GI is only possible with the commitment of the many organisations and artists based in the city year-round with whom we collaborate to make this programme: we all hope you enjoy it and look forward to seeing you in April 2012.

The Festival is made possible as a result of the commitment and partnerships between the visual arts network and venues within the city and funding partnerships with Glasgow Life, Creative Scotland, Glasgow City Marketing Bureau, EventScotland and Scottish Enterprise Glasgow.

to be premiered at 2012 Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art



Teresa Margolles is creating new work responding to the recent riots in English cities as part of a Production Residency at the Glasgow Sculpture Studios (GSS). The Mexican artist, whose visceral installation was one of the most striking and emotive pieces at the 2009 Venice Biennale, was developing work focusing on a recovered photographic archive of over 4,000 images of Ciudad Juárez from the 70s and 80s, when events overtook her.

Margolles travelled to London to document the aftermath of the riots both in photographic form and through the collection of debris. Arriving back in Glasgow she has developed a number of new works including performative actions in public spaces in Glasgow and Edinburgh using newspaper headlines that document media and public responses to the riots.

This new work, along with her research into the historic Luis Alvarado photographs of a town that today is infamous as the one of the murder capitals of the world reflects on the idea that all places have a story of suffering etched into their past. It will form the first exhibition in Glasgow Sculpture Studios new premises in The Whisky Bond at Spiers Locks shown as part of the 2012 Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art.
"The impact of Margolles' work still haunts me today, years after encountering it at the 2009 Venice Biennale. She presented new work, entitled 'What Else Could We Talk About?' which included an action that took place, daily, where the pavilion floors where being mopped with a mixture of water and blood from murdered people in Mexico."
Amy Sales

Margolles' GSS Production Residency has been supported by Creative Scotland and the Henry Moore Foundation and with a Wellcome Trust Arts Award.

 
Since the inauguration of the Production Residency programme GSS have invited Beagles & Ramsay (2008-09) Siobhán Hapaska (2009-10) Jimmie Durham (2010) and Christine Borland (2010-11), and co-commissioned new work with a wide range of national and international partners and funders including Creative Scotland, Henry Moore Foundation, Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art. This programme is curated by Amy Sales, Head of Programme.

Notes for Editors

Teresa Margolles
"With a minimalist artistic vocabulary, executed in highly emotional and ethically charged materials,Teresa Margolles manages to sharpen her view of death and conditions in Mexico with radical compression and concentration."
Rein Wolfs

 
International artist, Teresa Margolles (b. 1963 Culiacán, Mexico) lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico. For the next three-months Margolles will live and work in Glasgow, Scotland to undertake the next Glasgow Sculpture Studios Production Residency, funded by Creative Scotland, Henry Moore Foundation and The Wellcome Trust.

 Margolles studied art and communication sciences at the National University of Mexico followed by a diploma in forensic medicine. She is one of the founders of the group SEMEFO (Servicio Médico Forense/Forensic Medicine Service). Recent solo exhibitions include Frontera at Kunsthalle Fridericianum in Kassel and Museion Bolzano 2011,Los Herederos, Peter Kilchmann Zurich 2009, and En Lugar de los Hechos - Anstelle der Tatsachen  Kunsthalle Krems 2008, 127 cuerpos, Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen Dusseldorf 2006, Caída Libre/Chute libre Frac Lorraine, Metz 2005, Muerte sin fin, Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt Main 2004 and The Shroud, Kunsthalle Wien Vienna 2003. Margolles has presented work at Manifesta7 Bolzano 2008, the Liverpool Biennale 2006, the Prague Biennale 2005 and 2003 and the Gwangju Biennale 2004. In 2009 she represented Mexico at the 53rd Venice Biennale presenting What Else Could We Talk About?

Since belonging to the group SEMEFO, whose name is derived from the forensic medical service, Margolles has chosen as her atelier, first the morgue and the dissecting room, and more recently, the violence-ridden streets of Mexico. These are places of death but also places which bear witness to social unrest. Margolles works not so much directly with the remains of bodies but rather with the traces of life, with shrouds, burial and memory, and with the way a violent act shatters human networks and affects them in various levels.


Glasgow Sculpture Studios is "a unique centre for research, production, presentation and the dissemination of contemporary sculptural practices,"

Founded in 1988, Glasgow Sculpture Studios (GSS) has played a key role in the development of the artistic community, which has put Glasgow on the international map. Offering studio space for residents and production facilities for artists from Glasgow and beyond, GSS has supported the creation of work seen in exhibitions across the globe. Among the current 50+ studio holders are Turner prize nominee, Nathan Coley, Alex Frost, David Shrigley, Calum Stirling, Smith/Stewart, Stephen Hurrel, and many of the artists who have represented Scotland at the prestigious Venice Art Biennale including Claire Barclay.

The Public Programme is curated by Amy Sales to reflect the diverse range of approaches to contemporary sculpture and Glasgow as a centre for the production and exhibition of internationally significant visual art.

Art Destroyed The World And It Won't Stop There

Art Destroyed The World And It Won't Stop There

Queens Park Railway Club are delighted to announce their inaugural exhibition. As part of QPRCs curatorial residency with program Gregor Johnstone and Henry Coombes.

Art Destroyed The World And It Won't Stop There

Coombes and Johnstone have spent the last two years collaborating on an iPhone app that would allow the smart phone to measure loneliness. It works by wiping the phone through your arse crevice to take measurements of bum-hole acidity. As personal hygiene declines following long periods of isolation the levels of acidity correlates perfectly to loneliness. The app was a total failure so they decided to make a film about the horror and futility of making art.

Mark Inglis' Talk

Between losing his legs at 23-years-old due to frostbite and then going on to be the only double amputee to have stood on the roof of the world, the summit of Mount Everest, Mark Inglis has carved out careers as a scientist, a world recognised winemaker, sportsman, trekking guide and a leading international motivator. Visit his website: www.markinglis.co.nz<http://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=53090140&msgid=571818&act=B4SY&c=479857&destination=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.markinglis.co.nz>

________________________________

Norma D. Hunter's Walk

As part of Mark Inglis' visit to Huntly, Artist Norma D. Hunter will be creating a Huntly Wish Tree. From a Clootie Well in Munlochy, Black Isle, Norma will collect water and bring it home to Huntly by foot. Her pilgrimmage through Invernessshire and Moray to Huntly will take a week. On the last walk between Keith and Huntly Mark Inglis will accompany her.

There is a long standing tradition of Clootie Wells in Scotland. The waters of the wells are believed to be very beneficial to health. By dipping a strip of clothing from an afflicted person in the waters of the well and hanging them on a nearby tree the illness is supposed to leave the person as the material deteriorates. Norma D. Hunter will create a wish tree in the Meadow woods of Huntly blessed with the waters of the Clootie Well.
