In March Dialogue went to Oxford Brookes University. It was a different type of space than the Halle -and in fact it was on two foyer spaces of the Fine Art Building. We all had take into account the challenges offered by this space. For example my banners at 10ft by 2ft were too high to br hung in the space so I produced A0 size panels that went on the wall. Graham had to modify the hanging piece he exhibited. Joss had two wall based digital prints, Peter had to cut down one of his installation panels and Myfany had to position her floor piece at an angle to comply eith health and safety issues. The show had a different feel but was still a coherent and strong show. The reaction of the art students at Brookes was interesting which ranged from indifference to being intrigued by the artwork that was inhabiting the foyer spaces they walk through to get to their studios. We did get a positive review in the Oxford Times newspaper.
In April we have invited 4 artists from Bordeaux to show at BIAD Birmingham City Uni and will give more details in next post. These are: Nicolas Julliard, Valere Chanceaulme
Veronique Lamare and Francis Vigera. The exhibition will open on 13th April. For more information on these artists follow their links.
