A small display of gig posters along the main corridor of Blenheim Walk by Minneapolis based designers Aesthetic Apparatus.

SEAN KAYE AND JENNY WEST - Slow Revolution

Vernon Street 12 - 29 April

Sean Kaye and Jenny West began working together in 2006. Their practice uses strategies of limitation, translation and exchange in the production of distinct bodies of work.

This exhibition of new and recent work includes Mirror Mirror a series of paired drawings that highlight the fallibility of communication and translation in their construction and Reflection a series of video works exploring the relationship of balance, equilibrium and rhythm found in the monumental radio telescope at Jodrell Bank. The bookwork A Random Dispersal of Dust (Mutely Understood) will also be accompanied by related research material. This work is a word reveral of the short story The Library of Babel by Jorge Luis Borges and is published by Wild Pansy Press.

In conjunction with the exhibition the film Slow Revolution will be shown at Hyde Park Picture House on Monday 26th April at 6.00pm - admission free.

HAMISH FULTON


Vernon Street Library

17 March - 14 May






This small display of a wide range of work by Hamish Fulton has been taken from the extensive College collection.

Hamish Fulton was born in London in 1946 and studied at Hammersmith College of Art, St. Martin's School of Art and the Royal College of Art. Since the 1960's Hamish has been creating text and image work as well as sculpture in response to his physical contact with the surrounding landscape and since 1973, when he decalred that he would only make art resulting from the experience of individual walks, he has undertaken walks throughout the world.
