    Go Slow... in the Camargue Naturetrek Tour Report 3 - 10 June 2018 8g8 Black-winged Stilt Greater Flamingo Coypu Peacock Moth Report compiled by Matt Collis Images courtesy of Terry Goble Naturetrek Mingledown Barn Wolf's Lane Chawton Alton Hampshire GU34 3HJ UK T: +44 (0)1962 733051 E: [email protected] W: www.naturetrek.co.uk Tour Report Go Slow... in the Camargue Tour participants: Terry Goble and Matt Collis (leaders) with 16 Naturetrek clients Summary A weeks birding trip to the very special Camargue district of southern France provided an excellent opportunity to experience good views of typical birds of the west Mediterranean whilst exploring a few of the amazing areas surrounding this generally wetland and farmland landscape. Utilising a family-run hotel on the outskirts of the ancient city of Arles as our base, the itinerary aimed at providing an easy opportunity to look for Camargue specialists such as flamingos, herons and other water birds found in the various shallow waters and reed-fringed lagoons. The scrubby and dryer areas attract different more localized species and we located glamour birds such as Little Bustard, Hoopoe, Roller and Eurasian Bee-eater, together with a selection of the raptors and larks. With one day in the more mountainous area of Les Baux-de-Provence, we were also able to search for alpine specialities such as Blue Rock Thrush, Crag Martin and Alpine Swift. Day 1 Sunday 3rd June Thirteen guests travelled with leaders Matt and Terry on a British Airways flight from Heathrow to Marseille. After a relatively smooth flight of just over two hours we collected the two minibuses from the airport drop off and headed towards our hotel.

First, we thank the artist Robert Morgan. He opened his home to us many times. He talked with us. He told us where to find works and loaned us his own. He helped us load hordes of brightly colored warriors into the back of moving vans. He spent the past twenty years making this work. Secondly, we want to thank all the individual collectors and institutions who loaned works of art: Jim Brancaccio, Linda Breathitt, Barry and Laura Crume, Georgia Henkel, Susan Masterman, Van Meter Pettit and Linda Blackford, Dan and Wendy Rowland, the University of Kentucky Art Museum, and UK HealthCare. As always, we owe our thanks to everyone at Morehead State University, our parent institution. Without MSU’s consistent support and trust, projects like this would be impossible. We also offer our thanks to the Friends of Kentucky Folk Art Center Board of Directors, who work diligently on our behalf.

  • From Tamburlaine to Henry V
    ORE Open Research Exeter TITLE The Smoke of War: From Tamburlaine to Henry V AUTHORS Preedy, CK JOURNAL Shakespeare DEPOSITED IN ORE 15 January 2019 This version available at http://hdl.handle.net/10871/35467 COPYRIGHT AND REUSE Open Research Exeter makes this work available in accordance with publisher policies. A NOTE ON VERSIONS The version presented here may differ from the published version. If citing, you are advised to consult the published version for pagination, volume/issue and date of publication The Smoke of War: From Tamburlaine to Henry V Early in Tamburlaine Part 1, Marlowe’s protagonist promises that his army’s bullets, “[e]nrolde in flames and fiery smouldering mistes”, will occupy the heavens (2.3.20). Uniting the technological with the supernatural, Tamburlaine is characterised as a warrior who commands the “compasse of the killing bullet” (2.1.41), with the smoky emissions generated by his ordnance complementing his martial ambitions. As Tamburlaine and his rival Bajazeth compete for discursive and material control of the fictional – and theatrical - air, deploying smoke, flying bullets, and airborne contagion, Marlowe’s drama introduces an association between pollution and achievement that Shakespeare would subsequently interrogate in Henry IV and Henry V. While Shakespearean characters such as Hotspur continue to celebrate the fumes of “smoky war” (1 Henry IV 4.1.115), Shakespeare also registers the performative risks of generating environmental pollution: an approach that culminates in Henry V when the title protagonist’s threats conflate bullets with rotting bodies and render the air itself a poisoned weapon that “choke[s]” the atmosphere (4.3.99-108).

  • Pangea United 22.03–9.06.2019
    Pangea United 22.03–9.06.2019 Muzeum Sztuki w Łodzi Więckowskiego 36 msl.org.pl It is more than likely […] that we are no longer the citizens of any one particular state. Deep down, we carry within us the countries that we were born in: this means their chaotic diversity, rivers and mountain ranges, forests and savannahs, the changing seasons, birdsong, insects, air, sweat and humidity, grime and city noises, laughter, disorder, and confusion. Achille Mbembe, Politiques de l’inimitié, 2016 [forthcoming in English, 2019, as Necropolitics] The history of Pangaea, or ‘Pangaia’, is the tale of a mega-continent that existed about 200-250 million years ago, combining all the currently separated continental blocks. The fragmented pieces of what was once Pangaea still bear the traces of that oneness. By making use of this geological metaphor, the Pangea United exhibition invites viewers to imagine our earthly community as one household, one home. Artists taking part in the exhibition ask a number of questions in order to spark our ecological imagination. How can prototypes created within the art world teach us responsibility for the often-unnoticed suffering inflicted on other bodies? Can the logic of industrial live- -stock production lead to a similarly objectifying production of human life? What is the environmental potential of humble actions, such as scrubbing floors with recycled fabric, seeding cress in public spaces, or organizing meetings where women can collectively discover the burdensome legacy of patriarchy? What can we learn from people who live in communities under threat of extinction, many of whom belong to so-called indigenous and folk cultures? What would be the value of goods, money and labour in a future devoid of all prospect of economic growth? Why will the borders, zones, and territories that divide the Earth forever remain fictitious and porous? The artworks presented in this exhibition form a kind of essay, a meditation on the matter of human attentiveness and the interdependence of life in all its forms.
