    • Beaks December 6, 2009
      This afternoon I drew the tip of my pencil with itself and the nib of my biro with itself. I drew them in my line drawing book, which makes them the first traditionally representational drawings on its pages. They continue my exploration of the line as a representational tool that joins word to thing, and [...]
    • Line Drawn from Pencil to Paper December 3, 2009
      A line drawn from pencil to paper makes a dot. It’s a dot upwards through space that begins on the paper and travels to the tip of the pencil, but because paper and pencil meet so closely, the upwards projection of the dot from the paper is very slim. [...]
    • Smiles on Paper November 30, 2009
      On Saturday I presented a new work at the Stanley Picker gallery during the Writing Exhibitions symposium. Here’s an outline of my work, which I called Genuine Smiles: A sheet of paper is attached to one wall of the gallery, and attached just below it is a long piece of string with a sharpened pencil fixed [...]

    • Tamarin is talking very FAST November 26, 2009
      Rachel Lois Clapham and Alex Eisenberg documented today’s 10 Performances event with a live feed they updated throughout the day. By the time my performance What To Do begins they’re halfway down their third page. I love their occasional attempts to type out variations on everything I was saying. You can read what they’ve written [...]

    • Word Play at the Whitechapel Gallery November 18, 2009
      Tomorrow evening from 7pm antepress are hosting an art writing event at the Whitechapel. Here’s a bit about us from their website. Continuing the series of playful and participatory events exploring language and its parameters, writers collaborate with artists to produce games and scenarios that challenge the audiences’ relationship to language. This W […]

Introduction

Posted on July 22, 2007 by Tamarin

Welcome to the Kultur Fabric blog, which we hope to make an engaged, intelligent and reliable resource about contemporary art practice and reception in London.

Posts will be researched and written by young artists and critics who are all associated with Kultur Fabric in one way or another, and who all work within the fields they’ll be writing about. The approach is quite fluid at the moment, but the plan is to use the blog as a platform for reviews and thoughts about current exhibitions, screenings, performances and other events, as well as less time-sensitive critique of the practices and institutional structures informing today’s art world.

Our new blog is the first step in the direction of an online Kultur Fabric magazine due to launch later this year, which will use the format we’re establishing as a foundation for more in-depth reviews, features, interviews and new writing.

Kultur Fabric is a young artist-led organisation that initiates, supports and promotes interdisciplinary approaches to fine art practice. Our small team of member artists runs a curated programme of activities including peer critique groups, exhibitions, talks and children’s workshops with the aim of using the productive friction between disciplines and between projects to inform our own practices.
