By acquiring a boat, recording her journey, while playing shipyard songs, Aliceson has created a floating monument to the shipyard. With this piece Aliceson attempts to celebrate current and past production within the Gdansk shipyard as well as its origins as the birth place of the Solidarity movement. ‘My boat making and broadcasting of solidarity songs would be a homage, as an outsider, to the people & history of the shipyard’ – says Aliceson. The boat, now situated in Modelarnia accompanies a projection of the filmed voyage. During the opening night Aliceson in collaboration with Zbigniew Stefanski (Shipyard’s bard) recited shipyard songs with a twist. Aliceson sang a new song she has written about the shipyard and regeneration plans for the Young city development plan to the tune of Shipbuilding by Elvis Costello/Robert Wyatt. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />

Matthew describes Post-industrial landscapes as haunting - full of economic, political and ideological histories. During his time in the shipyard he attempts to uncover these histories and connect them with a wider network of contemporary ideas.</span><span style="font-size: small;"> The installation takes the form of two video works and three audio pieces. The audio works within this exhibition consist of headphones set within pile of debris (sand/dirt/rubble and other found objects). Each audio piece is an interview with individuals Matt has met during his time in Gdansk, drawing on issues which have caught his interest such as the young city development, as well as stories from Wyspa Sobieszewska, the island on which Matthew was staying during the residency period.</span> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS_nesWFCBan0QIa83vKaLZIqx1g2VlqaPtm5ReaKnP_0gOwrGKcGWJPyHgJ8NLABLkfqazL0Vp0LkVIWoOl_9keA7Ae_foA46urXC3AkqAL6ZCXqH24nwzaPJoATeUL847lT1TmDNq8Q/s1600/DSC_0024.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhS_nesWFCBan0QIa83vKaLZIqx1g2VlqaPtm5ReaKnP_0gOwrGKcGWJPyHgJ8NLABLkfqazL0Vp0LkVIWoOl_9keA7Ae_foA46urXC3AkqAL6ZCXqH24nwzaPJoATeUL847lT1TmDNq8Q/s400/DSC_0024.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: xx-small;">Louie + Jesse<i>, If we stop now, they will crush us like bed bugs</i>, audiovisual installation, Kiosk<span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; line-height: 14px;">,</span> </span></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: xx-small;"> 2011</span></span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13pt;"></span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3379M38h1gGqvsS1VGEOtyhQxyzJhow_gd2t_BivaI9Im1ffHotMUV3CI7jONjvIJT7T0WtYX-5ZPvg-h8bjCUgsNN6kCyTPexjgdZ5Vw_rUWz9TtAtJUBmqmIDk0KcHrb1D0mQvBQwI/s1600/DSC_0023.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3379M38h1gGqvsS1VGEOtyhQxyzJhow_gd2t_BivaI9Im1ffHotMUV3CI7jONjvIJT7T0WtYX-5ZPvg-h8bjCUgsNN6kCyTPexjgdZ5Vw_rUWz9TtAtJUBmqmIDk0KcHrb1D0mQvBQwI/s400/DSC_0023.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: xx-small;">Louie + Jesse<i>, If we stop now, they will crush us like bed bugs</i>, audiovisual installation, Kiosk<span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; line-height: 14px;">,</span> </span></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: xx-small;"> 2011</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Louie + Jesse have created a site-specific installation exploring the shipyard strike of 1970 and 1980. They are interested in the so called selective cleansing of history, how some areas are left as monuments and others (the messy elements) are demolished. They are interested in exploring the role of Alina Pienkowska in Shipyard’s strikes, an activist and nurse who became stranded in the clinic during the strike activity. They researched a particular moment within the strike’s history, just before communication lines were cut off. A moment where Alina made a quick but vital phone call to Jacek Kuroń stating details of the strike including its demands. As a result information about the strike was relayed worldwide. It is an understated but significant moment within the shipyards history. Having acquired a kiosk space just outside Wyspa Institute of Art as a location in which to realize their artwork, Louie and Jesse have developed a site-specific installation. The installation appears to be a cross between a hospital room and a hotel room. Their work draws on archival material about Alina but is also influenced by the recent young city developments and regeneration taking place within the shipyard grounds. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9oau35c0HKBtxfaKOXRFVNaO_7P8VsalLaESgInOF3hybsby48cP6M7W631Mz7m9Porxh5NreVtRrveyvtkJMcmMXZaueFQI9sqbfJ4zUXPnQrh80MY8Bg2_i2KCHRwYna-tC21ueB1s/s1600/DSC_0051.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9oau35c0HKBtxfaKOXRFVNaO_7P8VsalLaESgInOF3hybsby48cP6M7W631Mz7m9Porxh5NreVtRrveyvtkJMcmMXZaueFQI9sqbfJ4zUXPnQrh80MY8Bg2_i2KCHRwYna-tC21ueB1s/s400/DSC_0051.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqxejVO8UYDIlK052TcDy8S3FtGfscbK3xYC1e90l8yGUpHhaY9aW17lsd1_B2pFJymhNaBKsjSgZWpuDX77qcHgV66lgGLCEekp0Tq91EHM_YDQAMsIY-bPHJepCCDSaH9SDoImyFlFc/s1600/DSC_0033.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">So we have been back in Poland for 4 days now and so much has happened. After a long journey from Birmingham we arrived at Wyspa laden down with baggage. We managed to take a quick snooze before the opening of Alernativa, an art festival organised by Wyspa taking places around the shipyard. It was an immense opening; over 50 internatioanl artists are showing at Alternativa which will run until the 30th September. It was a great opportunity to meet new artists and to catch up with our own Post Industrial artists. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">On Sunday Roma and I accompanied Aliceson to Kuznica a small town on the Hel peninsula. A couple of weeks earlier Aliceson found a fishing buoy washed up on the beach close to her accommodation on Wyspa Sobieszewska. It’s a beautifully made object and Aliceson decided to embark on a 3-hour train journey to return it to the fishing boat it belonged too. She researched a code written on the side of the buoy and found out where it originated. So on Sunday morning we set off with her to re-unite the buoy with its owner. When we arrived at Kuzica train station we were greeted by a sea of mosquitoes, much like our trip to Puck during our last visit. It was quite terrifying!</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">After walking along the coast for a few minutes we found the gate to the dock, and by chance met a man who recognised the buoy as belonging to his friend. Unfortunately the owner could not collect it so we left the buoy with the dock security guard happy in the knowledge it would be safely returned. For Aliceson, the discovery of this buoy instigated the development of a side project to her main exhibition pieces, more will be revealed about this later.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">Monday was a particularly busy day, were Aliceson embarked on a boat trip around the shipyard Island, the make shift boat (adapting an existing rowing boat) became a floating monument to the shipyard. Roma and I were lucky enough to hitch a ride on the speedboat which towed Aliceson’s boat. It was amazing seeing the shipyard from sea level. It’s wonderful having the opportunity to realise this performance, footage taken from this trip will form a video pieces which will be shown during the exhibition. We want to say a big thank you to Nick for towing the boat along and making this all possible.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">As an artist Matthew is interested in the idea of the flaneur<b>. </b>A flaneur being someone who experiences an environment by walking through it, in order to understand it. He is also interested in the parallel idea of the fugue, which is a state of psychological breakdown accompanied by loss of identity and long periods of seemingly aimless wandering. People who undergo dissociative fugues have been known to travel many hundred of miles, suddenly becoming aware of what has happened but having no explanation of how they got to where they are.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">He views walking as a critical process. ‘When you walk, you think. Your thoughts are led by what you see and you reflect upon your environment. To walk in a post-industrial environment is to begin to understand the history of such an area on<b> </b>a human scale. To exist as an individual in a post-industrial landscape is a way of challenging that environment and its inevitably de-humanising nature.’<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Matthew works predominantly with sound, whether video, performance or installation, his works are often led by the sound, particularly spoken narration. This narration is then underpinned by soundscapes made from his recordings.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Matthew has previously undertaken residencies at the Royal Standard in Liverpool, and the Lombard Method in Birmingham, both in 2010. During these residencies Matthew focused on the post-industrial landscapes of each city and made work that dealt with the micro-histories that exist in such environments.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">louie+jesse are a visual/sound/performance art collective of two core members, with varying associates. Having trained at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, they work in multiforms such as performance installation, sound sculpture, and site-specific video, combining an enthusiasm for new technologies and materials with an analogue aesthetic. They are particularly interested in the interplay between external space and personal body, their pieces are often politically engaged and respond to place, history and community. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

This installation consisted of vast quantities of bright industrial drainage tubing carry sounds from one place in the building to another. The tubes disappear and reappear through the many holes in the floors, ceilings and other areas, not limited by rooms or straight walls, some paths traceable and some unclear. </span><br />

</span></b></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;"> <b>histoires concrètes</b> is a project realised by louie+jesse in PeerGrouP’s P.A.I.R. (<a href="http://www.peergroup.nl/"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;">www.peergroup.nl</span></a>) – a temporary residence for artists. It consists of two six-metre containers where the artists lived and worked for one month (Nov/Dec 2010). Situated in a remote rural location - between fields, wood and mudflats, near the village of Finsterwolde. The final piece for this project formed an unconventional map of the local area, inviting physical experience of place and exploring both the limitations and potential of ‘history’ and communal narratives. Made from local clay soil, the sculptures embody the different processes evident in the landscape, and changed radically daily with the weather.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

We begin with Aliceson Carter. Her</span></span></span> Art practice revolves around observation, and as such reflects the world around us. She graduated from Goldsmiths College in 2009. During her time there she made a piece of work where she paid homage to the 1968 Paris protests and the legacy of Marcel Duchamp (who died in Paris in 1968). She carried a urinal from his Paris residence to Birkbeck University in London, documenting the journey in a 5hr video piece. This was shown at 1968: Impact & Implications conference in July 2008. Since graduating she has taken part in a research lead project in Berlin, documenting the Berlin border of today with Kodachrome photographic film from the 1980s, when the Berlin Wall was in force. A 2010 residency in Sweden documented the Tranäs Cruising event, an annual parade of hundreds of restored vintage American cars around the town. She has also recently travelled to Kansas to record the last days of Kodachrome processing for my Kodachrome Pre Paid Processing Packet Project. In all these projects she has been interested in exploring the community, history & locale. This has lead to making work that focuses on the sense of time & place and our interactions within them. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">So it’s been a busy time for Post Industrial Revolution. Roma and I embarked on the first of two-scheduled trips to Poland last week, initiating the second part of the project. We set off a little under the weather but powered through. After a day of re -familiarising myself with Wyspa, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;">Modelarnia</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"> and the shipyard, as well as discussing practicalities with Marta and Roma we were good to go.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Two of the four British artists, Aliceson and Matt arrived bright and early Friday morning. We then embarked on a busy day, dropping off artists baggage at the accommodation, beach frolics, and a spot of lunch followed by a trip to Wyspa.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">The following day we got all touristy and jumped aboard a ferry to Westerplatte, historically significant as the location were Germany invaded Poland on 1st September 1939, initiating the Second World War. We visited a monument dedicated to the 182 Polish Solders who lost their lives defending the city, keeping the Nazi’s at bay for a staggering 7 days. The ferry trip offered fantastic views of the shipyard from the water showing just how vast the Gdansk shipyard really is. The afternoon was spent exploring the shipyard on foot, the highlight being Aliceson’s discovery of a huge polystyrene cube! We are hoping to borrow or possibility rent this object for the exhibition. After talking to Marta I discovered that scrap or discarded object in the shipyard can be borrowed or rented rather then taken. I rather like this idea of loaning found materials. Different parts of the shipyard are owned by different companies or individuals, so it’s just a case of finding out who owns the polystyrene. The day was rounded of with dinner, an opportunity for the artists to meet different members of the Wyspa team and indulge in some tasty polish delicacies.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

We went part of the way by train and the remainder packed into one of the artist's camper vans. Unfortunately upon arriving at our destination we were engulfed by a plague of mosquitoes! It was almost biblical. The event was cancelled but we took it as an opportunity to explore the town. We then stopped off for a beer in Gdynia, the second largest city making up the try cites of Gdansk, Gdynia and Sopot.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

This is where I came across our old friend Lech Walesa, this model of him was installed in Wyspa's gallery space during my last trip to the shipyard a year previously.</span><br />

The moment is propitious for them to buy the building at a preferential price. However they can only do this within a very short time. Wyspa enjoys a good reputation thanks to the artistic activities, which create a dialogue between the fields of art and political reflection. </span></span> </span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-style: normal;">The environment of the former Shipyard area, so full of historical and social emotions, has inspired artists for years. Wyspa, apart from its exhibitions, discussions and workshops, is conducting an international residency programme, a multi-media archive and a bookshop. Their research activities into issues of contemporary artistic culture are also geared towards cooperation with local inhabitants, who, like Wyspa, constitute part of the community in the district of Młode Miasto [the Young City]. The new district should have its own places of culture. Wyspa has been recognised and praised, not only in Poland but also in the international arena, which has helped to build the positive image of Gdańsk as a vibrant centre of contemporary art.That’s why they need your help!</span></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

The billboard is a work by an artistic collective 'Slavs and Tatars', and it forms part of a multiplatform project '79.89.09', that re-imagines an Iranian Polish solidarity, constructed in equal parts through archival research and original work. The project looks at three key dates:1979 (the Iranian Revolution), 1989 (the collapse of communism) and 2009 (the financial crisis). Along with the billboard artists prepared a publication as well as an installation of river bads and an Iranian and Polish book archive. </span></span> </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-style: normal;"><br />

</div><div class="MsoBodyText"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;">The Exhibition will be open until the end of this week so this is the last chance for you to see outcomes of the month-long residency of Polish artists in Digbeth. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;">In this post you can find more information about the work of Kamila's Szejnoch, which will be followed by posts about other artists in the next few days. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;">During her stay Kamila Szejnoch has developed a fascination with the Birmingham coat of arms, using it as a focal point of her research. In particular she is interested in the motto for the city ‘Forward’. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;"> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPkVnxvoCFYHsoG_w3971imDT8GtJuCk2_naOH8SxVE4oPmjAFdZqr6zcouOHojQI7pVVkNL05hcI8VAsz22lMPvmoFxWCiMNq2MQCvIPL_ZvM1ss0iCwOdOwGfM-vulAwHg5eIY_YzgY/s1600/7.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPkVnxvoCFYHsoG_w3971imDT8GtJuCk2_naOH8SxVE4oPmjAFdZqr6zcouOHojQI7pVVkNL05hcI8VAsz22lMPvmoFxWCiMNq2MQCvIPL_ZvM1ss0iCwOdOwGfM-vulAwHg5eIY_YzgY/s400/7.png" width="315" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: xx-small;">The coat of arms of Birmingham </span></div><div class="MsoBodyText"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoBodyText"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;">For Kamila exploring the significance of symbols and monuments associated with a city is significant, and she often develops whole bodies of work in relation to obscure local references to civic pride. She tries to approach outdated layers of the past by adding something new, contrasting with its original style or function. Her works often consist of two elements, one is history and tradition, the second is more contemporary, open, playful and interactive.</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-size: 12pt;">For Post – Industrial Revolution Kamila has developed a series of site specific interventions through out Digbeth. Most notably ‘For what?’ a large scale text piece situated in a car park next to the Custard Factory facing Digbeth High St. ‘For what?’ is a direct response to the 'Forward' mural, an earlier art work referencing Birmingham's coat of arms in a car park on Heathmill Lane. 'For what?” aims to instigate a dialogue about the past and future of the district by responding to the statement ‘Forward’ with a question.</span><span lang="PL" style="color: #333333; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></span><br />

The girls got straight into research mode. The first few days involved lots of walking around Digbeth locating building which were previously home to food based manufacturing or processing. It turns out there was a lot of fish and bacon curing in the area. There was also a Typhoo Tea Factory and most famously the Birds Custard Factory. There are still working abattoirs in Digbeth, slaughter houses aren’t something I would have initially associated with the area, but I suppose it makes sense with all the transportation links nearby. Unfortunately most other food based production has declined over the years.</div><br />

The girls have developed a strong interest in the Polish Center situated on Bordesley Street in Digbeth. It’s an amazing 1950s build frequented mainly by Poles who immigrated to the UK after the Second World War. MASH/HER/DIP have dedicated much of their time to developing connections with people who visit this centre on a daily basis, many of them ex workers from factories and workshops in the region. Their intention was to develop a dinner for these people they make connections with during the residency.</div><div class="MsoNormal">During this period the girls have experimented with creating a recipe which draws from the food based manufacturing Birmingham is famous for, incorporating ingredients such as Cadburys chocolate, Birds Custard and Typhoo Tea in such an inventive way. You’ll have to make a visit the exhibition to find out what culinary delights they came up with.</div>Post-Industrial Revolutionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13739982078170409561noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2237224802579745546.post-77311253527341482952011-02-15T09:12:00.000-08:002011-02-15T09:13:09.325-08:00Off-site project by Kamila Szejnoch<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Parts of our Post-Industrial Revolution project is based off-site. Kamila Szejnoch, who usually works in a public space, realised a mural refering to one of the Birmingham's most signifficant symbol. We can't tell you what is it yet, but you can have a look on it on the <a href="http://www.custardfactory.co.uk/">Custard Factory's</a> wall just now.

The comparisons between Digbeth and the Gdansk Shipyard as post industrial sites are of significance, each city has at some stage been deeply affected by the demise of industry, its movement abroad, and more recently the development of cultural and leisure industries in these former industrial areas. What interests us is how visual art can be seen to carry out and reflect this shift in usage, the change in social and industrial history of such spaces and its implications.</span><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br />
