  • Michael Newman - Body As Place: Antony Gormley Outside-In
    MICHAEL NEWMAN - BODY AS PLACE: ANTONY GORMLEY OUTSIDE-IN From MODEL, White Cube, London, UK Body as Place: Antony Gormley Outside-In I In 1973, after returning from a trip to India, Antony Gormley made a series of works based on plaster-soaked sheets placed over the prone bodies of friends. He writes that he had been touched seeing people asleep on streets and railway platforms covered by cotton saris or dhotis, which 'described the minimum space necessary for a person to establish shelter.' [1] In retrospect, we can see here many of the elements of his work to come: the sculpture produced by contact, by recreating the body through a mould rather than representing it; the minimum means for establishing a relation to place; and a sense of stillness. But these works are by no means benign. Considering these sculptures in the present day, we are perhaps more aware of their political implications: that they show not a universal condition but poverty in Asia, the place of the West's supposed 'other'; and that the 'world' of the people who live and sleep like this can no longer be considered apart from global networks and relations of power. In effect, the two dimensions of these works - the cover and the body - subsequently divided into two ways of making place. For ROOM (1980), Gormley took his own clothes, cut them into continuous spirals of cloth, and formed an inaccessible enclosure within the space of the room by wrapping them like a fence or wall around four poles. In the following year he began making sculpture by wrapping lead around a form produced from a mould of his own body, resulting in an organic shape sometimes rather like a pod or Egyptian mummy case marked on its surface by the rectilinear grid of welds.

  • UK Passport Design
    Introducing the new UK passport design The new design For many centuries, the United Kingdom has led the way in the creative industries. Her Majesty’s Passport Office is proud to launch the new ‘Creative United Kingdom’ passport with some of the best achievements of the last 500 years in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The new passport contains images depicting just some of the successes in innovation, architecture, art, and performance that the UK has brought to the world. For innovation, these include Stephenson’s Rocket and the London Underground. To represent architectural excellence, the work of Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and modern day architecture such as the Falkirk Wheel are shown. In art, the work of John Constable, as well as current greats Antony Gormley and Anish Kapoor, are included. William Shakespeare and the Globe Theatre are also featured to represent the very best of what the UK has brought to the performing arts. The new 34 page book houses the most intricate designs that have ever been produced for a UK passport. In keeping with its theme, these designs, coupled with some of the latest security features, mean that the new passport is at the very forefront of creativity in secure document production. The UK passport is one of the most important documents a British national can hold, giving them the freedom of international travel and a means to prove their identity. But as an internationally respected document it also becomes a target for fraudsters who try to create false passports, or tamper with existing ones for criminal gain.

  • Wjt Mitchell - What Sculpture Wants: Placing Antony Gormley
    WJT MITCHELL - WHAT SCULPTURE WANTS: PLACING ANTONY GORMLEY From ANTONY GORMLEY, Phaidon, London, UK, 1995 and 2000 'The continuation into the twentieth century of a traditional treatment of the human figure is not given a place in these pages ?' - Rosalind Krauss, Passages in Modern Sculpture (1977) 'Sculpture: the embodiment of the truth of Being in its work of instituting places.' - Martin Heidegger, 'Art and Space' (1969) 'It is undeniable that from man, as from a perfect model, statues and pieces of sculpture ? were first derived.' - Giorgio Vasari, Lives of the Artists (1568) Sculpture is the most ancient, conservative and intractable of the media. 'The material in which God worked to fashion the first man was a lump of clay', notes Vasari, [1] and the result was a notoriously rebellious sculptural self-portrait, since God took himself as the model and formed Adam (or Adam and Eve together) 'in his image'. You know the rest of the story. God breathes life into the clay figures. They have minds of their own, rebel against their creator, and are punished for it by being condemned to leave their paradisal home and work all their lives, only to die and return to the shapeless matter from which they emerged. Variations of this myth appear in many cultures and materials: Prometheus' creation of man from clay; the Jewish Golem; the clay statuettes animated by the Great Spirit in Hopi legend; Pygmalion falling in love with his own statue; 'the modern Prometheus', Dr Frankenstein, who uses dead bodies as material for his rebellious creatures; the metallic humanoids of contemporary science fiction, the 'post-human' creatures known as robots and cyborgs.
