Featuring work across a range of media, from painting and sculpture to installation, video art and performance, this book examines the different roles played by the body in art, from being the subject of portraiture to becoming an active presence in live and participatory events.
In the boldest imagining of the era since Shakespeare in Love and Elizabeth, this spellbinding novel of witchcraft, poetry and passion, brings to life Aemilia Lanyer, the 'Dark Lady' of Shakespeare's Sonnets - the playwright's muse and his one true love.
Dark Places uncovers hidden sites of scientific and technical research – the 'Dark Places' of the modern world. New artists' works include The Office of Experiments' ambitious Overt Research Project, which maps, observes and records those advanced labs and facilities that are unwittingly - or purposefully - concealed from public view. Steve Rowell from the US group the Centre for Land-Use Interpretation (CLUI), in his new project Ultimate High Ground, uncovers the shared US-UK spaces of military power that dot our landscape. Steve Beard and Victoria Halford's new film Voodoo Science Park unpacks the extraordinary constructed sites of the Health and Safety Laboratory in Derbyshire, where train crashes and industrial accidents are re-created to examine their destructive pathways, while Beatriz da Costa's A Memorial for the Still Living reflects on the impact of our advanced society on the species that live here. Dark Places was commissioned by The Arts Catalyst and co-curated with the Office of Experiments (OOE), John Hansard Gallery and SCAN.
Marion Coutts has emerged as one of the most engaging and inventive voices on the British contemporary art scene, attracting increasing attention for a highly original body of work whose subtle use of the moving image is allied to a wider object-based aesthetic. Produced to accompany a survey exhibition of her work, and pivoting around a new video installation, `Everglade', this substantial monographic publication captures the distinctiveness, and the diversity, of Coutts' practice. With Sally O'Reilly, Vincent Deary and Marion Coutts in conversation with Katherine Wood.
