Since I last posted on here I have been busily working on organising the fund-raising show.
So far I have been compileing lists of artists, designers, and illustrators to ask to contribute to the show. These include tutors at the university, visiting artists who have given talks to our MA group, artists that I know, artists that I would like to contact, and famous Bristolians! The list is becoming longer and longer. Via twitter I have managed to promote it a little, and several artists who follow me have said they will take part, which is wonderful, and generous of them! If you are reading this and are interested in taking part, do contact me, and I can give you an address to send the work. The only pre- requisite is that it is 6x4inches. (postcard size) with you name hidden on the back.
If anyone out there is organising a similar fundraising show I would love to know – and would be more than happy to contribute a piece. So again, just contact me via this.
So far the plan is to hold the exhibition at Motorcade/Flashparade, which is an exciting emerging gallery in Bristol, run in part by my friend Julie Mccalden who is also on the course. It is a lovely space and has a real buzz about it.
I now have a meeting at Spike Island to discuss the dreaded evaluation document, but also to see the show there which I have heard is very good.
