South London Gallery Salon - 30th October



 

Dear all,

It was great to meet you at the introduction in the Triangle Space on Tuesday. Naomi and I are looking forward to working with you over the course of the year.

Here is a brief overview of what the SLG Salons are and how they work:

• The SLG Salons are held at South London Gallery in Camberwell
• They provide an opportunity for up to 15 people to show work or works in progress over the course of 2.5/3 hours
• The full capacity of the Salon is around 30/35 so you can attend and participate even if not presenting.
• The salons focus on critical engagement with the work and dialogues around an individuals practice is located among the varying art world audiences and alongside other makers
• The salons will occasionally feature guest presentations from emerging artists who will also be involved in discussing your work
• The SLG Salons run 4 times a year - twice in the first term

The first of this years SLG salons takes place on the 30th October. You can install work from 4pm with the Salon beginning at 5.30pm. Whilst we know it is early in the term, it would be great to have plenty of people presenting.

If you are interested in presenting work you need to send an email to info@dave-charlesworth.com by the Wednesday 24th October stating your interest and the type of work you are showing including duration if it is a film.

Salon slots are available on a first come first served basis.

We will be running further SLG salons on the December 6th, February 7th 2013 and May 16th 2013.

Painting In Conversation: An International Exhibition of Paintings Made by Artists on Chelsea's MA in Fine Art

Painting In Conversation:An International Exhibition of Paintings Made by Artists on Chelsea's MA in Fine Art

Chelsea’s MAFA is comprised of an international body of artists who have all brought with them their unique cultural, political, and art making values influenced by their respective homes. 

This exhibition addresses the opportunities, unanticipated changes in trajectory, and even difficulties that have come about as a result of the shared intimate environment in the studio spaces with colleagues from all over the globe. Indeed, the conversations we have in our studios each day-- about painting history, our work, our lives and insights on the world--are proving to be influential for us and this exhibition showcases paintings that have been realised in this context. The works in this exhibition are a visual manifestation of our ongoing critical dialog with one another, spoken by manifold painters in manifold tongues.

Artists:
Jean Kim, Liz Elton, Nicholas Dedics, Adam de Boer, Johanna Keogh, Maarten Van Den Bos, Dalia Baassiri, Alison Lucas, Mohammad Namazi, Michal Kozlowski, Yue Xiaofei, Nakyoung Kim, Sakura Mori, Sanghyun Kim, Sejung Lee, Shiew Eng Hii, Xiao-yang Li, Soo Eun Baik, Thekla Ek, Jae Youn Won, Xingyue Zhang, Yuma Tomiyasu, Alejandro Salcedo Barrero, Chen-Shih Lu, Rebecca Byrne, Kan Xie

PRIVATE VIEW: Wednesday July 18th 2012 from 5:00pm till 9:00pm

Thursday 19th & Friday 20th (from 12pm till 7pm)
Saturday 21st (from 11am till 1pm)

The next Chelsea Salon Series Salon will be run by Fiona and Jenny. They have worked in a variety of interesting and exciting ways to realise their ideas in different art forms. Fiona and Jenny would like to capture the adventurous and experimental spirit of their Askew events and first salons held at Chelsea College in the  year that they took their course.

This means that this salon will be open and encouraging. There is no specific theme, but the aim is for students to be experimental, risk taking and daring! It doesn’t have to be pieces that you are working on at the moment. It doesn’t have to be something that is finished and final. For example, try working in a different format or media or with subject matter other than what you usually use. What about using dance, music, poetry or cooking something new  you haven’t tried before! We really want to encourage performance and interaction. Think about those ‘60s and ‘70s ‘happenings’ which embraced the experimental and free thinking zeitgeist...

The salon will be held at Harts Lane Studio in New Cross Gate on August 3rd. Installation will begin at 11am and de-installation must be complete by 6pm on the same day. It is the responsibility of the artist(s) to deliver and install you work, so please be prepared. 

The salons are open to the public and we encourage you to invite anyone you'd like to attend. 

About Whitty Gordon Projects Fiona Whitty and Jenny Gordon are artists and filmmakers who met on the MA Fine Art course at Chelsea College of Art & Design in 2009. Since graduating together they initiated ‘Askew’, which was a multi-disciplinary platform for artists to exhibit work in galleries and found spaces across London. Since then, they have set up Whitty Gordon Projects and have collaborated together on In-Between Spaces Jamaica, funded by Open Vizor 2010, 2011 and again in 2012, where they intend to continue to develop their artistic projects with the community of downtown Kingston. 

Fiona is Irish and Jenny is British/Jamaican. Cultural Identity is a theme that is explored in the work of Whitty Gordon Projects which shine a light on the unseen lives and stories in downtown Kingston, Jamaica through the medium of short films. Their work is experimental and documentary style, dealing with many aspects of the human condition and identity, nature, loss and migration.

For Display Purposes Only*

HEAT, SMOKE, KITCHEN UTENSILS, SOUND, SOUND INSULATION, DETERGENT, 

3-D and 2-D work'. Some of the works in this exhibition concentrate

on the use of senses other than sight. This not only refers

to works producing or dampening aural sensations (a.k.a sound-art),

but to the 'clean' smell of detergents and the hotness of a heater.

How much are we willing or prepared to invest in a

work that is not only 'in front of our eyes'?

There are other themes emerging from the clutter of this seemingly eclectic mix of art work : “experiments” that might remind one of

high-school science classes, diy sound insulation that

could look like an empty canvas, collapsed cardboard structures that

could get more attention than the ones next to a bin, organised

detergents in the style of dot painting or a religious ritual,

painting and drawing a picture, buying a heater from Argos, 

mimicking a guitar body or stacking clay.The materials used reflect 

what is readily available.

FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY

Is a group show featuring the work of eight international artists based in South East London. For further information please visit the individual artist’s websites listed below. 

Private View Monday June 18^th,  6 – 10pm.

Exhibition continues June 19^th – 22^nd. 12 – 5pm.
