  • BLIND-LIGHT-Sean-Kelly-Gallery
    Sean Kelly Gallery 528 West 29 Street 212 239 1181 New York, NY 10001 www.skny.com ANTONY GORMLEY Blind Light October 26 – December 1, 2007 Sean Kelly is delighted to announce a major exhibition of new work by Antony Gormley. The opening of the exhibition will take place on Thursday, October 25th from 6pm until 8pm. The artist will be present. The centerpiece of Gormley’s ambitious exhibition is a room-sized installation that occupies the main gallery entitled Blind Light . Blind Light is a luminous glass room filled with a dense cloud of mist. Upon entering the room-within-a-room, the visitor is disoriented by the visceral experience of the fully saturated air, in which visibility is limited to less than two feet. The very nature of one’s sense of one’s own body and its relationship in space to others is challenged. In Gormley’s words: Architecture is supposed to be the location of security and certainty about where you are. It is supposed to protect you from the weather, from darkness, from un - certainty. Blind Light undermines all of that. You enter this interior space that is the equivalent of being on top of a mountain, or at the bottom of the sea. It is very important for me that inside it you find the outside. Also you become the immersed figure in an endless ground, literally the subject of the work. Blind Light was included this summer in Gormley’s hugely acclaimed exhibition at the Hayward Gallery, London, to unprecedented public and critical approbation.

  • Student Handout Presenter: Dr Clare Taylor
    Open Arts Objects http://www.openartsarchive.org/open-arts-objects Student handout Presenter: Dr Clare Taylor Yinka Shonibare, Nelson’s Ship in a Bottle, 2010, National Maritime Museum, London http://www.openartsarchive.org/resource/open-arts-object-yinka-shonibare-nelson%E2%80%99s-ship- bottle-2010 In this film Dr Clare Taylor looks at a work made by a living artist who works in London, Yinka Shonibare. The subject, materials, and sites she talks about all encourage students to think of their own individual, national and global identity in new ways. The work also turns on its head traditional ideas of a sculpture on a plinth, which often commemorate a person well known in their own time, and reverses ideas about what such a work should be made out of, using a range of materials rather than stone or metal. Before watching the film 1. What do the words ‘Nelson’, ‘message in a bottle’ and ‘Trafalgar Square’ mean to you? 2. What do you think this work represents? 3. What is it made out of? And how is it put together? Are the materials obvious at first glance? 1 4. What function do you think this work serves? After watching the film 1. What effects (aesthetic, social, political etc) do you think the artist was trying to achieve in this work? 2. Has the film helped you define some of the formal elements of the work? Consider scale, subject matter, medium, and other formal elements 3. Does it have a recognisable purpose or function? Does this relate to the time period in which it was made? 4.

  • Guide to Liverpool Waterfront
    Guide to Liverpool Waterfront “Three Graces” – Together the Royal Liver Building, Cunard Building and the Port of Liverpool Building make up the Mersey’s ‘Three Graces’ and are at the architectural centre of Liverpool’s iconic waterfront. A massive engineering project has recently extended the canal in front of these three buildings, adding beautifully landscaped seating areas and viewpoints along the canal and the river. Museum of Liverpool – this brand new museum, opened in 2011 is a magnificent addition to Liverpool’s waterfront. Celebrating the origins and heritage of the city, it features collections from National Museums Liverpool that have never been seen before. Otterspool Promenade – The construction of Otterspool Promenade (1950) provided both a new amenity for Liverpool and an open space dividend from the disposal of Mersey Tunnel spoil and household waste; a project repeated three decades later to reclaim the future International Garden Festival site. A favourite with kite fliers this often overlooked wide open space is perfect for views of the river and picnics Antony Gormley’s “Another Place” - These spectacular sculptures by Antony Gormley are on Crosby beach, about 10 minutes out of Liverpool. Another Place consists of 100 cast-iron, life-size figures spread out along three kilometres of the foreshore, stretching almost one kilometre out to sea. The Another Place figures - each one weighing 650 kilos - are made from casts of the artist's own body standing on the beach, all of them looking out to sea, staring at the horizon in silent expectation. Mersey Ferry - There's no better way to experience Liverpool and Merseyside than from the deck of the world famous Mersey Ferry listening to the commentary.

  • Antony Gormley: Some of the Facts
    Antony Gormley: Some of the Facts Tate St Ives 16 June – 2 September 2001 Notes for Teachers As part of the ongoing development of resources for teachers we would like to encourage you to comment on how useful you have found this information and make any suggestions/additions to be incorporated during the exhibition and shared with other educationalists. E-mail [email protected] Call 01736 791114 Art is the means by which we communicate what it feels like to be alive…. Making beautiful things for everyday use is a wonderful thing to do – making life flow more easily – but art confronts life, allowing it to stop and perhaps change direction – they are completely different. Antony Gormley Things already exist. Sculpture already exists. The job is to transform what exists in the outer world By uniting it with the world of sensation, imagination and faith. Action can be confused with life. Much of human life is hidden. Sculpture, in stillness, can transmit what may not be seen. My work is to make bodies into vessels that both contain and occupy space. Space exists outside the door and inside the head. My work is to make a human space in space. Each work is a place between form and formlessness, a time between origin and becoming. A house is the form of vulnerability, darkness is revealed by light. My work is to make a place, free from knowledge, free from history, free from nationality to be experience freely. In art there is no progress, only art. Art is always for the future.

  • Yinka Shonibare MBE: FABRIC-ATION
    COPENHAGEN, JULY 3RD 2013 PRESS RELEASE Yinka Shonibare MBE: FABRIC-ATION 21. september – 24. november 2013 Autumn at GL STRAND offers one of the absolutely major names on the international contemporary art scene. British-Nigerian Yinka Shonibare is currently arousing the enthusiasm of the public and reviewers in England. Now the Danish public will have a chance to make the acquaintance of the artist’s fascinating universe of headless soldiers and Victorian ballerinas in his first major solo show in Scandinavia. Over the part 15 years Yinka Shonibare has created an iconic oeuvre of headless mannequins that bring to life famous moments of history and art history. With great commitment and equal degrees of seriousness, wit and humour he has mounted an assault on the colonialism of the Victorian era and its parallels in Thatcher’s Britain. In recent years he has widened the scope of his subjects to include global news, injustices and complications in a true cornucopia of media, for example film, photography, painting, sculpture and installation – all represented in the show at GL STRAND. FABRIC-ATION mainly gathers works from recent years, as well as a brand new work created for the exhibition, Copenhagen Girl with a Bullet in her Head. The subjects include Admiral Nelson and his key position in British colonialism, the significance of globalization for the formation of modern man’s identity, multiculturalism, global food production and the revolutions of the past few years in the Arab world. In other words, Shonibare is able, through an original and captivating universe, to present us with the huge complexity that defines our time, as well as the underlying history.

    Kino, Carol, “Artist Yinka Shonibare Makes a Move to the Barnes Foundation,” The Wall Street Journal, January 23, 2014. Accessed online: http://on.wsj.com/1c7tFyt Artist Yinka Shonibare Makes a Move to the Barnes Foundation Once known as an art-world provocateur, the artist has taken on the Enlightenment and the power of knowledge as themes behind a project place for emerging talent and a solo show at Philadelphia's Barnes Foundation—the museum's first contemporary commission in over 80 years By CAROL KINO Jan. 23, 2014 1:04 p.m. ET BRIGHT OUTLOOK | Shonibare in his London studio, with sculptures featuring his signature batik cloth.Photography by James Mollison for WSJ. Magazine ON A GLOOMY WINTER afternoon, the conceptual artist Yinka Shonibare sits in his wheelchair in his cozy East London studio, mulling over some sculptures that arrived unexpectedly from a fabricator that morning—two ten-foot-high library ladders and a model of a coffee-colored young girl garbed in a Victorian frock made from African batik cloth. They are propped against the only empty wall in the art-crammed space, opposite a desk piled with colorful fabric scraps and magazine clippings, where he normally makes collages. Nearby, three female assistants sit quietly at their desks, fielding a stream of emails and requests. From the floor below arises something less typical: the sound of African drums, as a musician warms up for a performance in the emerging artists' project space Shonibare runs downstairs. The ladders and the mannequin are part of a new piece he is creating for "Yinka Shonibare MBE: Magic Ladders," his solo show at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, which opens this January.
