The methodology applies a synergy between drawing practice and theoretical writing about urban spaces, regeneration and the city. The project uses the contested regeneration of the Elephant and Castle in south east London as its primary case study. The area has an extensive historical visual record of urban change and redevelopment since the nineteenth century. The thesis integrates current theories and debates on drawing with urban regeneration. It is partly an account of the drawing process, what I have witnessed and how I recorded it, and how this relates to the theoretical aspects of the research. I have interlinked the multi-themed purposes and motivations behind urban regeneration, visual planning and the London imaginary in the thesis. Many aspects of the stages of urban regeneration have been under-observed, and official visual representations by developers and the local council dominate the flow of public information and perception of changes taking place.

  • POSE! Making and Taking Portraits
    POSE! Making and Taking Portraits Saturday 23 November, 1:30pm-4:30pm Borough Gallery, 103 Borough Rd, SE1 0AA L - Edna Mann, Bent Figure, Charcoal on paper. Courtesy of Borough Road Gallery R - Dorothy Mead, Self Portrait, 1973. Courtesy of Borough Road Gallery ● A free afternoon of drawings and exploring portraits at Borough Road Gallery ● Live drawing sessions with local artist ● #CuratorTalks on portraiture and identity ● Art-inspired selfie booth Borough Road Gallery is hosting a drop in, free to attend art session inspired by the gallery’s collection of modern art, taking place in the gallery on Saturday 23 November. The event will explore ideas around portraiture and identity, through an afternoon of live drawing and curator talks, an art-inspired selfie station and the chance to explore the gallery’s permanent collection of paintings and drawings. Local artist Jenny Bell will run a series of interactive drawing activities asking us to rethink how we capture movement on the page - visitors will take turns modelling and drawing in charcoal to explore the many different ways the human form can be interpreted. Borough Road Gallery curator Theresa Kneppers will give short talks on artists representing the body, looking in-depth at two particular artworks by prominent female figures of the Borough Group, a collective of mid-20th-century artists from Southwark including Dorothy Mead and Edna Mann. This event is programmed by the Kids in Museums Youth Panel in association with the Borough Road Gallery.

  • Charcoal in Context Kelly Chorpening As This Is a Talk Related to An
    Charcoal in Context Kelly Chorpening As this is a talk related to an exhibition of charcoal drawings, what I would like to do within the next forty-five minutes is try and establish some context for David Bomberg’s work, his teaching and how it was interpreted by his students, in order to then relate that to the contemporary art practice. To do this, I will focus on three artists known for their use charcoal: William Kentridge and Kara Walker and Robert Longo. Beyond their work being made in the same medium, the relationship between the technical and material aspects of their work is intertwined with ideas in ways that establish an interesting link between the historic works in this exhibition and contemporary drawing practice. I have resisted a full art historical account of Bomberg’s history and tried to stick to motivations: as an artist, a teacher, and citizen. I would like to establish the relationship between the material and technical to the conceptual within these different historical contexts, leading to questions such as: are there qualities particular to the medium of charcoal that all artists are particularly drawn to? How can artists today relate to the ideas of Bomberg, especially in regard to expression and the spiritual qualities in art? And finally, in terms of motivations, what does this comparison yield? But first I would like to begin with two personal anecdotes. Firstly, as a student I was introduced to the work of Frank Auerbach in 1990. For those who may not know, Auerbach was a student of David Bomberg at Borough Polytechnic.

  • A Century of Painting Life 5
    ART HISTORY REVEALED Dr. Laurence Shafe This course is an eclectic wander through art history. It consists of twenty two-hour talks starting in September 2018 and the topics are largely taken from exhibitions held in London during 2018. The aim is not to provide a guide to the exhibition but to use it as a starting point to discuss the topics raised and to show the major art works. An exhibition often contains 100 to 200 art works but in each two-hour talk I will focus on the 20 to 30 major works and I will often add works not shown in the exhibition to illustrate a point. References and Copyright • The talks are given to a small group of people and all the proceeds, after the cost of the hall is deducted, are given to charity. • The notes are based on information found on the public websites of Wikipedia, Tate, National Gallery, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Khan Academy and the Art Story. • If a talk uses information from specific books, websites or articles these are referenced at the beginning of each talk and in the ‘References’ section of the relevant page. The talks that are based on an exhibition use the booklets and book associated with the exhibition. • Where possible images and information are taken from Wikipedia under 1 an Attribution-Share Alike Creative Commons License. • If I have forgotten to reference your work then please let me know and I will add a reference or delete the information. 1 ART HISTORY REVEALED 1.
