Paul Rooney: Interview 

'Most of my writing has focused on a disembodied voice. The starting point may be an interview, to which I've added other references and sources, but it is often still the individual voice that carries the narrative and occupies the space – the fictional space as well as the literal space – of the work. The point is that this voice, which seems singular, is in fact composite, fractured and unstable. The Unnameable by Samuel Beckett is that unstable voice pushed to the absolute extreme ... I was attracted by the extremity of that experience: a sense of self that is absolutely uncertain, and is pushed to the limit.'




Jeremy Akerman and Eileen Daly

Akerman Daly publish artists' writing. The Collected Writings of Jon Thompson will be published by Ridinghouse in September 2011 and will be launched at The London Art Book Fair, Whitechapel Gallery, 23-25 September 2011

DEPARTMENT STORE
15th - 24th July

Following on from the very critical success of their Elephant Man Tours historical walking tours project, artists Rich Wilson and Adam Latham have turned their back on tourism and turned their busy minds to the business of opening a DEPARTMENT STORE.

For ten days visitors and customers alike will be able to peruse over three floors of a mid-renovation Georgian townhouse full to brimming with luxury, semi-luxury and affordable consumer items.  From squirrel flippers to umbrella trees, sock scarves to shell spoons; everything, as they say, is under one roof. 

On the top floor they launch their dazzling new clothing label 'Trendy Boy.com', a collection that has already inspired one Japanese fashion expert to buy everything they had on their stall.  On the first floor there's Homeware, and on the ground floor a well-stocked gift shop with all the toys, gadgets, musical instruments and tropical paraphernalia that fans of their online shop have come to view as essential to a happy life in the modern world.


GUTBUSTERS
22nd & 23rd July, 12-9pm.

As if that wasn't all just about enough, on Friday and Saturday the following week a two-day performance takes place in the disused shop at the front bottom of the building.  The performance is called GUTBUSTERS, the empty shop will be transformed into a beautiful rustic looking working café, serving delicious, often inedible delicacies that will make your eyes water and your mouth cry with joy.

Staffed by an as yet unconfirmed rota of laconic, gauche and pugnacious indie bands (TBA), tired shoppers can treat themselves to a whole gastroparesis of poetically confused dishes. 

For a sample menu please go to http://elephantmantours.com/cafe.php, the café will be open from 11am to 8pm on both days, please come at different times as tables are limited.  To apply for  any waiting/waitressing jobs, please send contact details and a picture of your band to info@elephantmantours.com.

Fwd: Franko B | I Still Love | The Nunnery Gallery | 5th May






 
The Nunnery | 6th May – 5th June 2011
 
e-flyer image edit.jpg       

An exhibition of recent visual art work by Franko B.
Private View: Thursday 5th May 2011, 6.30pm – 9pm
 
I Still Love is Franko B's first solo exhibition in London for seven years and features a new series of embroidered canvases, never before shown in the UK.  
 
The canvases, which depict animals, flowers, portraits and the male body, as well as images of torture and war, return to the central themes of Franko B's work – death, eroticism, intimacy, pain and compassion. These recurrent motifs find a delicate new means of expression through the exclusive use of red cotton on unprimed canvas.
A bold, eclectic artist, and for many years a leading figure on the international performance art scene, Franko B continues to celebrate and express the beauty of existence in his work, focusing on powerful and emotive imagery. I Still Love follows on from the artist's recent solo exhibition at PAC (Pavilion of Contemporary Art) in Milan.
 
Artist's Talk: Sunday 8th May, 2-3.30pm
Franko B will be in conversation with writer and curator, Michele Robecchi. Discussion will focus on the conception and realisation of the exhibition 'I Still Love'. The conversation will then be opened out into a group Q & A. To reserve a place, please RSVP to nunnery@bowarts.com.
First Thursday: Thursday 2nd June
Franko B will discuss the theories and concerns which inform his work and the diverse range of approaches he takes to producing art. There will also be a screening of a documentary accompanying his recent solo exhibition in Milan.  Doors will open at 6.30pm for a 7pm start. Following the talk, the exhibition will stay open until 9pm.
To reserve a place, please RSVP to nunnery@bowarts.com.
 
Gallery open Friday – Sunday, 1-5pm | Exhibition continues 6th May – 5th June 2011 
Entry to the exhibition is free

The Nunnery, 181 Bow Rd, London, E3 2SJ (nearest tube Bow Road, nearest DLR Bow Church).

For every action...                                              

                                ...justifies the means.
Shopping malls, motorway service stations, airports, 'places of decision and farewell'; maybe the real non-places are somewhere else, exactly where thinking rests before it turns into the art-object or the art-event. Thinking that might stay hidden, even to the thinker (the thinker in clay or paint, that is) except in those cases where it's shared, where it passes from one artist to another in the process of collaboration. Just another kind of place of decision, of course.
