    • The Real Experiment November 4, 2009
      Allan Kaprow again. One characteristic of the lifelike art that was emerging in the sixties: “Various performative modes became the effective way to deal with this shift to the actual environment. Performing was doing something, not acting in theater – moving furniture, for example, just to do it, or because you were changing apartments.” T […]

    • DO SOMETHING DONE October 31, 2009
      After some eleventh hour InDesign frantickity the book I’ve been making is finished. As I’ve been working on it a couple of things have been running through my mind. The Envelope Constructions video I made in 2006 has the same feeling of purposeful inconclusiveness – of working intentionally towards an end point which is in no [...]

    • STUDIO AND CUBE October 24, 2009
      This is our new home. In a complete change of everything, this home consists of a white studio. It means rather than making artwork in a domestic space as I have been for the past few years, I’ll be doing domestic things in an art-making space. It will be very good to see what becomes of [...]

    • DO SOMETHING October 15, 2009
      I found out this week that a book I’m making is going to be published by (un)limited store in December. The book will be launched in December at ArtistBook International at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and before that there’s lots of work to do. It’s a kind of instruction manual and I’m calling it [...]

Review: Portholes to the Secrets of the Universe

Posted on October 24, 2007 by Anton Viesel

La Viande, 3 Charlotte Road, London EC2 3DH

17 – 27 October 2007
 
By the time I finish this review you won’t have much time left to see Portholes to the Secrets of the Universe. (It closes on 27th October 2007). That’s a shame, as the artists have put on a strong and difficult show that demands [...]

Posted on October 15, 2007 by Tamarin

Superbrands (UK) Ltd. has published its official list of Britain’s coolest brands 2007/08. Top five from the ‘experts’ are:

Saying my old college is cooler than Apple is a curious accolade. It comes from a Superbrands council representing “a diverse collection of perspectives and experiences, although they are mainly media personalities who influence opinion, e.g. [...]

Matthew Monahan at MOCA, Los Angeles

Posted on September 27, 2007 by Tamarin

Nicholas Brown is an artist based between London and California. He makes clunking wooden contraptions that hang somewhere between functionality and aesthetics, so you’re never quite sure if what you’re looking at is the result of a tangled-up performance you’ve just missed, the remnants of some eccentric personal experiment, or an ongoing room-sized project of [...]

Projecting Space at the Central Saint Martin’s MA Show

Posted on September 25, 2007 by Tamarin

As an artist a lot of my work involves video in one form or another, but the disjuncture between the space of the video and the space of the room it’s in never really satisfies me. And so it might be to bridge the gap between the stuff of the artwork and the stuff of [...]
