Hey Girlies,
Not really sure what to say, as we covered alot on friday...
So we are all agreed on the Crypt St.Giles for the venue, brilliant for the location and audience, also it's lived in because of the events that it hosts. I'd just like to point out though, that with artists we chose it may seem in a way like we are just furnishing a place rather that putting on an exhibition. Although that may even be a good thing, what do you think? Either way we definately need to dicuss how we will display work (cabinates, etc.).

hi all, I suggest you may be interested in seeing 'Smoke' at the Pumphouse in Battersea Park. Curated by the women who produce 'Implacashere' publication. Sally O'Reilly is one of them, a very exciting curator and academic. See website-

This Sunday is the Smoke Fayre-SMOKE FAYRE
Saturday 8 November, 12 - 4pm
Location: Pump House Gallery, Battersea Park
Free - all welcome
A bundle of smoky-themed workshops, demonstrations and performances in the grounds of the gallery, for both children and adults, including tastings and demonstrations of food smoking, trying out smoky eye makeup techniques, meeting Smoky Angora rabbits and learning how to knit their hair into smoky forms, watching magicians make objects disappear in a puff of smoke.

also- the Grayson Perry curation, Unpopular Culture, would be worth you looking at, re: how he curated from an existing collection, what he chose and what he wanted his choice to mean. Some info here- http://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/visual-arts/hayward-touring/current/unpopular-culture
The catalogue is very good too.

We chose the Crypt as it was close and easily accessible (tube and bus near by), in SE london. Contacts who work in the CRYPT. The location means we will get a varied audience, and the building itself is historical and will tie in nicely with our ongoing themes.
thanks francesca!
Hi, hope everyone had a good weekend!! Just wondered when we were meeting to run through our cost sheet. I know the illustration group is out on a trip tomorrow, but we are all in Wednesday as we are getting briefed in the morning. So if everyone else is free maybe we can meet up after?
Hi All, I've been doing a bit of Art Admin at Matt Roberts Art over the last week and he has been really helpful with the funding and promo side of the assessment. Actually it was a real insight to realise how many departments are included with curating an exhibition.
Has anyone thought about what they would like to take charge of?
