OCCUPY THE FUTURE / THE PROSPECT OF A UTOPIAN SCOTLAND / ANTHONY SCHRAG

OCCUPY THE FUTURE / THE PROSPECT OF A UTOPIAN SCOTLAND / ANTHONY SCHRAG

2014 approaches and questions of Scotland's future loom large on our shared cultural horizon: What is Scotland's destiny? How will we create that future? How do we manifest our own utopia in relationship to other people's idea of the future? Is it all so uncertain? Or can we create our own providence?

Using Zoe Beloff's theatrical interventions at last year's Occupy protests and Augusto Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed as starting points, this workshop led by artist Anthony Schrag includes discussions, talks and performances, exploring current debates of an independent Scotland. The day will culiminate in the creation of a collaborative artwork.

A presentation of the works will be open to the public at 4pm, followed by refreshments and an open discussion.


This is a FREE event, but booking is essential. Places are limited to 25.

ECONOMY Website Launch: A curatorial project led by the History of Art department at the University of Edinburgh

ECONOMY is a curatorial project realised as a collaboration between the University of Edinburgh's History of Art Department, Stills, Scotland's Centre for Photography and Centre for Contemporary Arts (CCA).
 
The ECONOMY exhibition will open in January 2013 at Stills (Edinburgh) and CCA(Glasgow).  Today we're launching ECONOMY's unique website to generate constructive public discussion on how the economy impacts upon our lives.  You are invited to respond to short polemics penned by local and international writers, activists, journalists and artists. The Scotsman's columnist Joyce McMillan and writer Rebecca Gordon-Nesbitt kick things off with a reflection on the promise of Scottish independence in the context of a competitive global economy and a short story about the demise of the Empire of Europe.  Visit the website to upload your own photographs to the Image Archive, participate in the ongoing debates and consult the material in the Reading Room. 
 

Follow this link to contribute: www.economyexhibition.net

In the 21st century, does the economy provide the ground zero of our sense of self? And what does this experience of a life dominated by economic relations feel or even look like? Presented across two cities and online the ECONOMY project addresses issues that range from climate change, labour conditions, sexuality, migration and the crisis of democracy to the quest for alternative futures.

The third performance in 'you've been selected' by Urara Tsuchiya.

Tsuchiya's practice explores the disconcertion that can be found between the personal and social worlds. Her work includes creating performances, videos, and live events. She often incorporates soft sculptures, costumes, masks, and home cooking. These function as props in an alternate environment that make space for different behavior. She works with the binaries of, for example, animal/human and adult/baby to strange and humorous effect. She is interested in challenging the viewer to negotiate his or her own personal and physical boundaries. For instance, sometimes the audience is not invited to participate; instead they find themselves part of an orchestrated scene. Tsuchiya blurs and removes the neutralizing, distanced aspect of making her work obviously 'art'.

Urara was born and raised in Japan. She completed her BA in fine art at Goldsmiths in 2007, and MFA at The Glasgow School of Art in 2012. She currently lives and works in Glasgow.

Walking The Landscape

Walking Off The Grid and The History of Walking talks by Michael Höpfner and Professor Tim Ingold

Michael Höpfner, a walking artist from Austria, has been walking in many places around the world. For this project, Walking off The Grid, he is spending 14 days circling Huntly on a 30 mile route around the Strathbogie area. His walk takes him through Gartly, Glass, Drumblade, Drumdelgie, Cairnie, Rothiemay, Kinnoir and the surrounding countryside. During this time he is reconstructing the geography of the landscape through the conversations, meetings and experiences along the way.

Michael finishes his walk this weekend and will be presenting the outcome of his project along with images and videos on Sunday 9 December, 4.30pm at the Huntly Hotel.

He will be joined by Professor Tim Ingold from the Anthropology department at Aberdeen University who will be giving a talk on the History of Walking.

This Friday's Talk: Wood & Harrison

The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in
Scotland, with registration number SC005336.
> WOOD & HARRISON
>
>
> //// Friday 23rd November
> //// 12:30-14:00
> //// Main Lecture Theatre, E22
>
>
> John Wood and Paul Harrison have been working collaboratively since 1993 producing single screen and installation based video works.
>
> The work investigates the relationship between the human figure and architecture, developed through short form video (20 seconds – 3 minutes) with particular emphasis on actions being formulated and resolved within a given duration.
>
> Each work holds to an internal 'logic', action related to duration. Within this 'logical world' (architectural space, the gallery space, the business office, the laboratory) action is allowed to happen for no logical reason, a tension exists between the environment and its inhabitant, play is encouraged and influences are intentionally mixed – art history, slapstick, Open University instruction, drawing, science…
>
> Often shot against a clear white background the work closely resembles the drawings (or diagrams) from which they are developed.
>
> John Wood and Paul Harrison have had major solo exhibitions at Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston; Kunstmuseum Thun, Switzerland; Ikon Gallery, Birmingham; Mori Art Museum, Tokyo. Selected group shows include British Council Touring, China; Zacheta National Gallery of Art, Warsaw; Kunsthalle Tallin, Estonia; Whitechapel Gallery, London. Works held in collections include MoMA, New York; Tate, London; Centre Pompidou, Paris; The Arts Council Collection, British Council Collection, and the Government Art Collection, UK.

Colquhoun & Hollingsworth - Two Ruins

[http://gallery.mailchimp.com/c8e7c106ec2546d0eb3d4cde0/images/TwoRuinsfinalv1_450.jpg]



Steve Hollingsworth and Jim Colquhoun are Two Ruins, a collaborative investigation at the intersection of performance and sculpture. Hollingsworth and Colquhoun are both interested in those places where the boundaries between disciplines and ideas become blurred and malleable and praxis helps to further corrode these, often arbitrary, distinctions. In this performance the two artists are adrift amongst a scattering of neon tubing with proximity oscillators attached to their chests allowing them to interact with the neon not just physically but sonically. There is more than a hint of the homo-erotic as the they crawl infinitely slowly amongst the tubing, semi-naked and bending close to and straddling the light to bring forth a sonic wail that rises and falls with their movements. The deliberately ponderous movements and the overwhelming soundscape fuse to create a mesmerising mise-en-scéne, a wordless Beckettian shadow play that begins and ends in darkness.

The Temporary Art Repair Shop at ESW

[cid:image001.jpg@01CDBC22.1391E1D0]

Edinburgh Sculpture Workshop opens The Temporary Art Repair Shop

Monday 12th November - Friday 7th December


Artist, Tobias Sternberg will be running The Temporary Art Repair Shop at ESW from Monday 12th November. This is your chance to have an object you own converted into an artwork for free.


Anyone can come in and present Tobias with an object which is broken, faulty, disproportionate, ugly, unsuccessful, or in some way not suitable for its intended purpose. The visitor explains what is wrong with the object, and depending on the work load and the suitability of the object, Tobias can then choose to accept to remake it into an artwork. If so, it is then photographed, a brief account is written detailing its shortcomings, and the visitor receives a receipt as proof of having handed it in.
It is understood that the visitor is giving Tobias the right to do whatever he decides with the object until it is later handed back.

Tobias will use his skills as a sculptor to turn the received objects into sculptures. When, and if, finished, the object is again photographed, and then displayed in the Temporary Art Repair Shop until the closing day on Friday 7th December. There is no guarantee that every accepted object will be turned into art objects because of time restraints, lack of inspiration or whatever other reason.

On the last day all owners are invited to come by and collect their old objects now turned into new sculptures. The service is free. Just show up with your receipt, and if you feel like it, contribute your impressions of your newly acquired artwork.

The month long project is designed to explore new ideas around what it means to make public sculpture, who should pay for art and who can own it, what the worth and value of art is.

Kai Fische

"Mercifully, we still live in a society where varying views about artistic excellence can flourish…..

Fischer's important and disturbing installation reminds us of how fragile that freedom can be."

Joyce McMillan

Kai Fischer's powerful performance and installation piece inspired by the 1937 Exhibition of Degenerate Art will be presented in the atmospheric setting of the Old Ambulance Depot in Brunswick Street, Edinburgh from Wednesday 7 – Saturday 10 November 2012<x-apple-data-detectors://8> in a partnership with the Traverse Theatre. The installation will be open daily from 11am<x-apple-data-detectors://9> with performances by actors Pauline Goldsmith and Pauline Lockhart in the afternoon and evenings.

Entartet reflects on the infamous 'Degenerate Art' exhibition, a "name and shame" exhibition showing the works of modern artists that was staged by the German government. The pieces on display had been raided from public galleries and were now used to ridicule the different Modern Art movements, which the Nazi regime deemed 'degenerate'. Soon after the exhibition many of the included artists and their colleagues were no longer allowed to exhibit, to work, or even to paint at all. Publicly ridiculed and with their careers and livelihoods destroyed, many were forced to emigrate or went into inner emigration.

Entartet uses the original text of the exhibition's guidebook to create an audio guide and to evoke a moment in history. Part installation, part performance it creates an environment in which to experience both this infamous event and the world in which it existed. Lifting the lid on an exceptional piece of propaganda, Entartet explores a very dark side of populism which is as relevant today as it was 75 years ago.

Tickets for the performance element of Entartet are free, and can be booked in advance by calling Traverse Box Office (0131 228 1404<tel:0131%20228%201404>). Also available on the door but please be aware there is limited capacity.

Camila Sposati 14 October - 18 November

[cid:16910DE295C845A69E9B361D567F9CF9@ARGOS]


Camila Sposati
Green-Dyed Vulture

14 October - 18 November 2012


[cid:7EFAA03A594C4FCFA4680A86FF578773@ARGOS]


Green-Dyed Vulture, an exhibition by the Brazilian artist Camila Sposati, will open at the Highland Institute for Contemporary Art on Sunday 14 October, 2-5pm.

The exhibition's title is a quote from the Brazilian poet Mário Quintana, describing our human desire to repress or embellish an unwanted truth: a vulture dressed in the colour of hope, is still a vulture. Sposati shares the poet's sentiment, seeing the best possible world as one that contains the possibility of another, immanent within it. This sense reflects the artist's view of her own working methods and on the works in this exhibition: she explores processes of transformation, aiming to 'allow something invisible to become evident'.

To pursue this, Sposati has researched transformative processes on microscopic and global scales, growing crystals in laboratories or studying geological effects in the Earth's crust; research that hastaken her to sites in Amazonia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Guatemala, Europe and Japan. She has been supported by organisations, including the Brazilian Ministry of Culture; Petrobrás; the British Council; University College London; The Arts Catalyst; the Royal Geological Survey; Tokyo Wonder Site; Montehermoso, Spain, and the International Residency programme at Recollets, France.

Her explorations focus on revealing relations between colour and shape in dynamic systems and investigating our experiential responses: the works' multi-sensory aspects and our conceptual understandings. Here her work may be seen within the Neo-concrete traditions of Brazilian art. Sposati's investigations develop the concerns of Hélio Oiticica (the artist most prominent in Neo-Concretism), with 'activating the relationship between the subject and the work in real time', engaging their surroundings and audience, and seeking a 'primal experience of the real', through shape and colour.

These concerns have widened her view to include cultural and anthropological understandings of the forms she explores. Visits to sites of man-made sinkholes such as Darvaza, in Turkeministan, orGuatemala City have led her to consider the essential discourse she observes between geological processes, the civilizations that inhabit these regions and the artefacts they produce.

One of three new works in this exhibition, Unlock (2012) is a direct response to her research in Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, travelling along the ancient Silk Road. The piece, a print, hung on a wall and tied to the ground by two stones, shows a cartographic image of the earth. Reflecting the fabrics and tapestries of the nomadic cultures she encountered, it describes the fragility of a body in constant movement and in unpredictable patterns; our experience of gravity and magnetism.

Relating also to the exhibition's title, its circular movement mirrors the flight of vultures, balancing between air currents and gravity, finding the point of greatest economy of energy. It is this point that holds most fascination for Sposati, and is echoed throughout her work; through circular forms and patterns or a focus on the conservation of energy through transformative processes.

The exhibition runs from 14 October – 18 November and is open on Sundays 2 - 5pm, or by appointment.

Alan Currall (b. 1964) has exhibited widely in group and solo shows at galleries including the Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow, Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne, Hayward Gallery, London, Malmö Konsthall, Malmö and Stills Gallery, Edinburgh. In 2002 he exhibited at the Jerwood Gallery as part of the Artist Platform series and was nominated for the Beck's Futures Prize in 2003.

Josephine Flynn (B. 1975, Leigh, based in Leeds) gained her MA Fine Art at Sheffield Hallam University (2006), BA Fine Art at Leeds Metropolitan University (1998). Recent solo exhibitions include The International 3, Manchester; Axel Lapp, Berlin and Associates, London.

Gelitin is comprised of four artists. They met first in 1978 when they all attended a summer camp. They have been playing and working together. In 1993 they began exhibiting internationally and have since exhibited widely with recent solo shows including Greene Naftali Gallery, New York; Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin, Paris and Kunsthalle Krems, Austria.

In the years that Internet has been active as a collective, it has written, developed and produced numerous performances and videos, working collaboratively with different people. The group is flexible, which means that not all of the members participate in the same way every time. Internet's performances involve candid conversations that are usually scripted and often require audience members to help out, to keep the show going to the end. Members include Diego Chamy and Siân Robinson Davies.

After Party 9pm - 2am (The Poetry Club)

Exhibition open 15th September - 20th October

Gallery hours Wed - Sat 12pm - 6pm


[http://img2.ymlp216.net/2x21_owenpiperimage.jpg]

Next up in our Gallery, we have a solo show by British artist Owen Piper. The exhibition is entitled "THE QUID"

"All about everything...and a little bit more"

This was the slogan of the Quid book, the most popular annual encyclopedic ref
erence work in France, that first appeared in 1963 and stopped being published in 2007. It could also be used to define Owen Piper's work, inspired by anything from the Cannes festival photocall to international politics, footballers boots, ties, animal etc. For The Quid, Piper's paintings will be contextualised in an ambitious mix of sculptures and installations for the first time in SWG3 Gallery.

Baldwin Ringsted - New works

Exibition Preview 14th September 7pm - 9pm

After Party 9pm - 2am (The Poetry Club)

Exhibition open 15th September - 20th October

Gallery hours Wed - Sat 12pm - 6pm


[http://img2.ymlp216.net/2x21_Baldwin1.jpg]

Often taking the form of sculptural installations, sound pieces, collaged paintings or works on paper, Baldvin Ringsted's artworks forever draw upon his experience as a musician. His practice explores the relationship between the formal properties of this discipline, and its cultural history and development. Moving between image and sound, his pieces often focus on points of transition or translation.
