AFTER THE MASTERS MASTERCLASS 3

Yay! Thank you Stuart, back on the blog! Don't quite know what happened with my account, too much clicking!
Last workshop was great with Andrew, hoping to see the video that Sarah made of our chalk drawing during Blue's slow walking on here soon.
Next workshop SATURDAY 20th APRIL 1pm - 4pm
Andrew has given us homework! See you all then £15 paid through Firstsite (I think)


PostMA  Artists

Three Hour timed project Familiar Territory 9th March – 20th April 2013

The idea for this project is to make work within a limited time frame, in response to a personal space. You can divide the time up as you like. So it could be five minute line drawings made at the same time of day ( visual diary style ). Or a photo shoot then print going towards a mixed media piece . A three hour painting. Fifteen minute portraits of objects on the mantelpiece etc.
You’re thinking about scale, media, concept and time scale.

Reading

The Poetics of Space, Gaston Bachelard
In Praise of Shadows, Junichiro Tanizaki

Really pleased that this was so successful. I'm just sorry I didn't get time to come and see you - hopefully next time.

Drawing session with Andrew Vass

A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon's drawing. Andrew is an excellent tutor and thoughtfully inspired the group to generate some very interesting work. I'm really looking forward to the next session. Thanks to Judith for organising and Sue for the feedback.

Hi Guys,
I got a mention in the latest A-N monthly digest under 'Artists Talking Highlights' for my A-N blog 'Un-Fictions Snapshot etc', my Post-MA research and development log.  Not much of a mention really, but non-the-less, it got noticed. Happy with that.  Link is this if you want a look: http://www.a-n.co.uk/artists_talking/projects/single/2501346
Bye Steve

Interesting find.......for me anyway

A late Xmas pressie to myself. Artists, photographers and journalists consider the ongoing participation we're all burdened with viewing images of human atrocity.
Also considers 'post-photography' with the brilliant Alfredo Jarr.'
