Essay Briefing with David Cross

21st July 11.00am in Wilson Hall

an exhibition curated by MA Fine Art

** PAT TESTING: **

**Wednesday 30th June 10-4** and the follow up session would be **Tuesday 6th July 10-1**

Base room for these sessions will be the Peckham Road canteen area. Also in the Show Committee there was an agreement that the MA students would be using the spaces as they are and there would be no significant 'show build' short of hanging/presenting work. If there are to be any physical interventions into rooms, these will need to be removed immediately by the students at the end of the show, as we have a number of short courses going into many spaces the following day/week.

**Anna Milsom: ‘Thick’ translation and the multimodal artefact**

Wed 26th May 2-4pm Large Seminar Room Camberwell College of Arts, Wilson Road, London SE5 8LU

A talk by Anna Milsom (Senior Lecturer in Applied Translation at London Metropolitan University)

//In her PhD thesis Anna Milsom approached the use of multimodality in a way which opens up exciting possibilities for the presentation of layered material, not only proposing a challenging solution to the thesis itself, but also suggesting an alternative to a linear presentation of text. Her work will be of great interest to all those engaged in questions regarding ‘what a thesis might look like’ as well as for creative writers/artists.//

Professor Paul Coldwell

+++

This talk describes the unexpected route towards multimodality which was taken over the course of my PhD research. The focus of the project was the analysis and translation of folktales by the Cuban ethnographer Lydia Cabrera (1900 – 1991). In all, Cabrera published twenty two books which provide a unique insight into Afro-Cuban religions and customs. Her tales actively embrace hybridity - as narratives they straddle a range of oppositions being both oral and written, singly and multiply authored, ethnographic fact and literary fiction. The complexity of translating such texts into English led to a desire to offer translations which might move beyond the traditional format of a written text in one language standing in the place of a written text in another. Research undertaken in the archive at the University of Miami was pivotal. The archive contains a vast collection of Cabrera’s notes, doodles, photographs and drafts. Slowly, Cabrera herself and the whispered presence of her Afro-Cuban informants became audible, and the idea of presenting multiple layers of text emerged. Drawing on a range of disciplines, an interactive DVD, underpinned by the notion of ‘thick translation’ (Appiah 2000), was developed. This final form of the project aimed to make all the participants involved in Cabrera’s tales visible; the writer, her informants, myself as translator, and the reader as active participant.

View event webpage Coinciding with the artist's exhibition of newly commissioned work 'Bluff' taking place at Studio Voltaire, and a two-person show at the Serpentine Gallery alongside Nairy Baghramian, Phyllida Barlow continues to question the nature and role of the sculptural object in contemporary culture. Utilising an extensive, fluid vocabulary and immense enthusiasm for engaging with the physical 'stuff' of the world Barlow makes her work from a range of materials, such as tarpaulin, wooden pallets, cement, polystyrene, card, plaster and chicken wire. Teaching since the 1960s Phyllida Barlow has proved an influential presence in a number of British art colleges and her former students include Rachel Whiteread, Steven Pippin, Douglas Gordon, Spartacus Chetwynd, Bill Woodrow, Angela De la Cruz and Eva Rothschild. As one of the most significant and respected artists practicing today her own work is now achieving new visibility and relevance. L ink: __www.studiovoltaire.org__

7 Men in London Town

Private View: Friday 23rd of April 2010 - 6 pm to 11 pm Exhibition runs fro :Friday 23rd to 29th of April 2010 Gallery Opening Hours: Mon to Fri: 11am - 6:30pm, Sat: 12.30 pm - 5.00 pm Last day of Exhibition:Thurs 29th of April: 11.00am to 5.00pm

 * End Time: || Thursday, April 29, 2010 at 6:00pm ||
 * Location: || RED GATE GALLERY LONDON ||

Seven Men in London Town is an exhibition of contemporary printmaking. It is a show by seven male artists who, independently from one another, have discovered a shared obsession with the figure in nightmarish, dystopian and apocalyptic scenarios. Their work harks back to the roots of storytelling as practiced by the shaman: an exploration into what lies in the deepest reaches of the underworld, brought back into the light of day and revealed to the tribe. By drawing and painting their nightmare visions, the artists expel their own demons, and expose them for dissection. Through art, they make their fears tangible, and possess them, rather than by being possessed by them. Why London? Because to live in London is to live in an ancient and often mysterious city, a city of strange stories and characters, dark with the shadows of souls long since departed. Seven Men in London Town starts with the idea of London as a meeting point for seven very different personalities, and transforms into an evocation of the city as a Blakean nightmare vision.

Jonathan Comerford studied at the Ruth Prowse School of Art, majoring in printmaking and drawing, and at Peacock Printmakers in Aberdeen / Tom G Adriani graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2005. He has exhibited in the Northern Gallery For Contemporary Art, the Factory Berlin, Somerset House, and the St Pancras Crypt Gallery / Jai Llewellyn studied drawing at Camberwell College of Arts, where he is now a printmaking MA Candidate / Tony Lee studied graphic design at London College of Printing, illustration at the Royal College of Art, and print making at Camberwell College / Eric Storey studied at Cambridge University and the Sir John Cass School of Art. He is currently studying for an MA in Visual Arts at Camberwell College / Julian Ronnefeldt trained as a photographer in Germany, and studied at St Martins and Westminster College, London. He has exhibited both photographic and video work in London, Berlin and abroad / Nazir Tanbouli studied expressive arts at Alexandria School of Arts, Egypt, and is currently an MA Fine Art Printmaking candidate at Camberwell. He has been exhibiting his work since 1989 in Egypt, UK, Germany, Russia, Argentina, and USA.

 * Oh MADM!**
 * Camberwell College of Arts MA Designer Maker students present a showcase of ideas in progress****.**

8-12th March 2010, 11-6pm PV: Wednesday 10th March, 6-8pm

Ground Floor Gallery Space Camberwell College of Arts Wilson Road SE5 8LU

There is a strong tradition of the applied arts within Camberwell and from the Graduate School this exciting collection of work represents many disciplines of contemporary crafts. Makers are involved with one-off or small batch production, ceramics, furniture design, jewellery and metal work. This show marks the halfway point through this stimulating and challenging course where students will exhibit new work which will provide a glimpse of what is to come at the final Masters show in July.

COGNITIVE DRAWING EXPERIMENT
media type="custom" key="5385651" width="260" height="260" As part of the Leverhulme Trust Drawing and Cognition research project (@http://www.sciria.org.uk/home/project_show/4), the Research Section at Camberwell College of Arts is establishing a list of potential volunteers for a series of experiments starting in March 2010. Tests consist of drawing while wearing an eyetracker as shown in the picture. The process is completely painless and harmless and you will learn how the eye and hand coordinate their actions during drawing.


 * Tests will take place at Camberwell College of Arts, Wilson Road.
 * Test duration: approximately one hour.
 * You receive £20 for your trouble.
 * No particular skill required- from professional artist to 'never drawn before'.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">“One of the surest tests [of the superiority or inferiority of a poet] is the way in which a poet borrows. Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal; bad poets deface what they take, and good poets make it into something better, or at least something different. The good poet welds his theft into a whole of feeling which is unique, utterly different than that from which it is torn; the bad poet throws it into something which has no cohesion. A good poet will usually borrow from authors remote in time, or alien in language, or diverse in interest. Eliot, T.S., “Philip Massinger,” The Sacred Wood, New York: Bartleby.com, 2000

PART TWO ILLUSTRATION-LED OPEN SEMINAR To further our discussion

MARCH 9TH 2.00PM ROOM II4 (ILLUSTRATION PRACTICE STUDIO) Having reflected on the issues during Seminar One, your personal responses to them and the relevance they may have to the development of your own work

Take an existing piece of Art, it may be something that has inspired you in the past or a piece that is relevant to your research work, your proposal project or a piece that you simply admire.

USING YOUR OWN VISUAL LANGUAGE. PRODUCE ONE PIECE OF ART WORK OR VISUAL. Using this piece as an inspiration, extracting from it any element that will enhance your understanding or challenge a particular issue within your visual work.

It may be the colour, composition, impact, communication, emotion or basic concept of the existing piece that inspires you. It may be that it confronts challenges or weaknesses within your work that you are striving to address at this time.

You might like to be controversial and copy the piece, to investigate how the use of your own visual voice will translate the piece and to further the exploration of influence/originality. During this session we will discuss your response to the experience, has this changed your approach, to or deepened your understanding of the issues discussed.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE SUPPORT REMINDER: Mark Baker is keeping registers of attendees. It appears only 25% of Overseas students are attending. All MA Staff are aware of the students in their care that do need langauge support. The sessions are covering key assessable elements of the course, such as reflection and the writing the project proposal. It is highly recommended that Overseas students attend these sessions, to ensure that they are achieving and developing on a par with other students who maybe more familiar with the course requirements. If you have been attending and know of studnets who may not be aware of the sessions please inform them of how important it is to attend. You will struggle to complete the course without certain key skills, and with the the proposal deadline looming, and the need for reflective skills as part of this and as part of your contribution to the course, it is critical that you attend and participate in the sessions. **THE SESSIONS ARE FREE**

The Enterprise Centre for Creative Arts__ is your free university creative business support agency and is open to all students, graduates and staff. You can now book weekly advice sessions with me, your new Enterprise Officer for CCW.

The free half hour one-to-one session will offer you the chance to explore your creative business ideas and goals in a confidential and supportive environment. We’ll work co-actively to unpick your business needs and you’ll take away suggested actions that will allow you to move forward with confidence.

Take the first step and book your session here! Free slots are still available for Monday 21 September at various times – don’t miss your chance! Read my biography online to feel comfortable with who you’re meeting. If you have any questions at all, please email me at [|m.milligan@chelsea.arts.ac.uk] – I don’t bite!

Sessions are open to all CCW but will be held at the Chelsea campus to begin with. Do keep an eye on the ECCA site for news of sessions to be held at Camberwell & Wimbledon sites.
