Keep Your Timber Limber (Works on Paper)
Jun 19 - Sep 8, 2013
show nearby

Keep Your Timber Limber (Works on Paper) explores how artists since the 1940s to the present day have used drawing to address ideas critical and current to their time, ranging from the politics of gender and sexuality to feminist issues, war, censorship and race. Stretching from fashion to erotica, the works can all be viewed as being in some way transgressive, employing traditional and commercial drawing techniques to challenge specific social, political or stylistic conventions.

The exhibition brings together the work of eight artists: Judith Bernstein, Tom of Finland, George Grosz, Margaret Harrison, Mike Kuchar, Cary Kwok, Antonio Lopez and Marlene McCarty.

Curated by Sarah McCrory, the exhibition draws on the way artists turned to the commercial realms of comics, fashion and illustration to revitalise drawing within the visual arts - many of the works in Keep Your Timber Limber (Works on Paper) were originally produced for a commercial context. One common aspect of these varied practices is a high level of technical skill - these are artists who often confounded critics of their subject matter unable to condemn their technique. Choosing to step outside the boundaries of social acceptability, the works in Keep Your Timber Limber (Works on Paper) comprise modest proposals and trenchant political gestures.

{ } – The Empty Set is a mathematical expression to describe nothingness. It also applies philosophically as a tool to debate null. The empty set is not the same thing as nothing; rather, it is the framing of nothingness. Once acknowledged, it stops being anything and nothingness becomes something.

Points of Departure
Jun 26 - Jul 21, 2013
New commissions resulting from residencies in London and Ramallah by British and Palestinian artists, exploring the concept of liminality
show nearby

Points of Departure features new commissions resulting from six residencies in London and Ramallah by British and Palestinian artists: Jumana Emil Abboud, Bashar Alhroub, Bisan Abu Eisheh, Jeremy Hutchison, Olivia Plender, and Nathan Witt. Devised with two curators-in-residence, Mirna Bamieh and Rebecca Heald, the works in Points of Departure are a thoughtful exploration of the anthropological concept of liminality. From the Latin word līmen, meaning ‘a threshold’, liminality is a condition in which one’s sense of identity is diffused, leading not only to states of dislocation and disorientation, but also to the possibility of new perspectives. Residencies can also be understood as a ‘liminal’ state between time and place. But what happens when the liminality of the residency is entwined with a place like Palestine, which is defined by its own political ambiguity and contestation?

In the face of globalisation, but without succumbing to false universalism, all Points of Departure artists undertook varieties of research to reveal a range of partial truths. In this exhibition they are presented in different mediums including performance, video, installation, drawings, and intervention.

Following the presentation of the first outcomes of Points of Departure in Ramallah in January and February 2013, the exhibition travels in an expanded form to the ICA, as one of the highlights of the 2013 Shubbak Festival in London.

Group show Mass Observation: This is Your Photo
Aug 2 - Sep 29, 2013
Founded in 1937, Mass Observation is one of the most intriguing social survey projects of the 20th century.
show nearby

Founded in 1937, Mass Observation is one of the most intriguing social survey projects of the 20th century. Formed by a group of British writers, artists, poets and anthropologists, the organisation in its original guise aspired to gain insight into the lives, opinions and daily thoughts and habits of the British people. Using a combination of recording methods drawn from science and arts, they hoped this new information would lead to a deeper understanding of everyday life and create a more democratic and unified society. Mass Observation: This is Your Photo will be the first extensive display of the archive’s visual legacy, locating photography at its centre. The exhibition is curated by Russell Roberts, Reader in Photography, European Centre for Photographic Research, University of Wales, Newport.

Mark Neville Deeds Not Words
Aug 2 - Sep 29, 2013
An exhibition focusing on the publication Deeds Not Words, a multi-layered documentary project by Mark Neville.
show nearby

An exhibition focusing on the publication Deeds Not Words, a multi-layered documentary project by Mark Neville about the people of Corby, Northamptonshire and the environmental issues provoked by the court case concerning ‘ The Corby 16’.

Between 1985 and 1998 eighteen children were born in Corby with birth defects, said to have been the result of harmful substances generated during the council reclamation of the local steelworks. Neville’s photographs document daily life in Corby and the individual claimants involved in the subsequent court case.

First published in 2010, Deeds Not Words was available only to the respective environmental, local, legal and scientific bodies to whom its content was addressed. This exhibition will be the first public showcasing of these photographs and will document the book’s journey as it reaches these various constituencies and is implemented as an advocacy tool to promote policy change. The exhibition is curated by David Campany.
