My performances and sculptures are Press Release strategies for remembering, creating an archive of movement and moments’ From July 2015 Wellcome Collection presents a major exhibition of works by acclaimed artist, Alice Anderson: ‘Memory Movement Memory Objects’. Anderson’s sculptures are entirely mummified in copper thread, creating glistening landscapes of beautiful, uncanny and transformed objects. Each piece is an exploration and act of memory. Both the making and display of works interrogate how we create, record, and transform the present and how we imagine the future. Over 100 works woven round with wire will be displayed and, uniquely, visitors will be invited to contribute to the creation of a new artwork during the run of the exhibition, as a car is mummified in the gallery. ‘Memory Movement Memory Objects’ will comprise five areas, the first of which, ‘the Studio’, will extend the creative process of the artist’s practice into the gallery. Visitors will be able to spend time mummifying a 1967 Ford Mustang and other smaller objects with copper wire, in a performance at once meditative and communal. The objects have significance to the artist but there is no nostalgia in their selection. The sounds of unspooling bobbins of wire and metal enclosing metal will provide a soundtrack to the space, where collaborative focus and repetitive movement elicit a reflection on consciousness and our mutable relationship to time.

  • Exhibition Catalogue
    AGATA INGARDEN Sweaty Hands, 2017 Steel, enamel, copper and caramel 2900 x 500 mm and 2750 x 600 mm Agata Ingarden’s artwork stems from a fascination with the industrial materials and machinery she encountered at construction sites, a place she frequently visited with her architect father as a child in post-communist Poland. Informed by these experiences, Ingarden’s installation, sculpture and video works both investigate the space where the systems surrounding us, both social and manufactured, collide with nature, and explore the relationship between humans and their inventions. Employing organic materials as a means to challenge this complex relationship, Ingarden’s work attempts to reconcile human and non-human elements, creating coherent environments where our inventions, technology and organic processes are interdependent. As part of MATERIAL, Cob Gallery presents Sweaty Hands from Ingarden’s Heat Pipes series. Formed of two hanging living sculptures, these works combine a metal piping structure which suspends a caramel mass. Cast from industrial carton moulds used to transport goods from electronical devices to food, these caramel forms are an imagining of all mass consumption goods- welded to become a “living mass of sugar”. Responsive to the conditions in which they are situated- solidifying when cold and liquifying when warmed, as the properties of the piece’s adapt they reveal an ironic parallel to plastic. The morphed caramel adopts a living quality, taking on an anthropomorphic sensibility. Displayed in a state of constant

Since childhood, Alice has had an extreme sensitivity to her environment: to light, certain colours, sound, vibratory movement and waves transmitted by different materials. She relates to the other through objects and exists in total visual, auditory, olfactory and corporeal relation to objects that surround her. In her experience, objects not only have practical uses, but intervene in Anderson’s learning processes and relationship to the world. ‘Spiritual Machines’, 2017 Totems and statuettes series made out of different type of machines and objects.

  • Recording the Present / Alice Anderson
    RECORDING THE PRESENT Interview carried out by Annabelle Gugnon and Juliette de Gonet ESPACE: What exactly is your artistic agenda? And what was the idea behind the DATA space exhibition at Espace Louis Vuitton Paris? ALICE ANDERSON: The digital revolution is probably going to turn out as decisive for the mechanisms of human memory as the invention of writing was. This revolution is a fascinating process, and I keep tabs on it by recording its objects and crystallizing its phases. At a point in history when our planet is going virtual and memory is going digital, I feel a need to record space and objects in 3D. In artistic terms I'm particularly concerned with memorizing by creating a new physical relationship with things and space using copper wire. It's a paradox: the more my everyday existence fills up with digital data about the things around me, the greater my need to come to grips with their material, physical data. This kind of memorization is a necessity. It's my way of recording the present. I think we're living through a revolution whose extent we're not aware of yet. For the DATA space exhibition at Espace Louis Vuitton Paris, I wanted to record the data of the venue. I started out with the measurements of certain parts of the building. A number of wooden slats from the floor were reassembled into new geometrical figures—circles—representing the diagrams of the measurements after they had been recorded with the wire in 3D (“Floor Boards Diagrams” 2015). The skylights in the rotunda were recreated in steel then weaved with copper wire (“Skylights Data” 2015) and together they form a movement.

  • 'I Don't Refuse This World, I Just Need to Explore
    Alice Anderson: ‘I don’t refuse this world, I just need to explore alternatives to live with it today’ 05/02/2016 12:30 Published 05/02/2016 Alice Anderson: ‘I don’t refuse this world, I just need to explore alternatives to live with it today’ The artist talks about her unique method of “memorising” and “recording” objects in copper wire, and explains how this helps her to slow down and maintain an intimacy with the world around her by ANNA McNAY An oversized bobbin and needle, a two-metre wide resplendent sphere radiating a warm copper glow – these stunning, alluring and yet uncanny objects are the work of Alice Anderson (b1972), a French-English artist, whose hair gleams in the same coppery tones as the wire in which these objects are wrapped. Although “wrapped”, I learn, is the wrong term to use. For Anderson, this process of entwining an object, mummifying it, securing it for posterity, is just that: an act of “memorising” and a means of understanding the world around her, keeping hold of the physicality of objects, as more and more of our life becomes subsumed by digital technology. Currently one of the 14 artists in the Saatchi Gallery’s first all-women exhibition, Champagne Life, Anderson spoke to Studio International about her obsessive practice and her inner drive. Anna McNay: When did you first begin wrapping objects? Alice Anderson: I don’t really use the term “wrapping” because my purpose is different. I “record” objects with thread. It is my own method of “memorising” objects in 3D.

Elle construit de nombreux dialogues entre les scènes américaines et françaises et s’était déjà intéressée à l’évolution des genres et du féminisme pour l’exposition Le Quatrième sexe, qui avait eu lieu à l’espace Le Coeur, à Paris, en 2017. Pour sa deuxième exposition à La Patinoire Royale, Alice Anderson propose un nouveau corpus de peintures constituées d’un mélange de cuivre (Empirical Sounds et Free Compositions), qui réinterroge le médium tout en se jouant de certaines contradictions. Le premier antagonisme étant que la peinture est un support qui tend à l’idée de la contemplation et du silence, quand pour Alice Anderson il évoque, de manière sous-jacente, le bruit, le dynamisme et les vibrations. Dans sa pratique, qui est totalement liée à la performance, l’artiste peut soit dessiner, tandis que ses danseurs se mettent en mouvement en suivant le rythme qu’elle produit, soit se laisser happer par un ensemble de sons.
