Final preparations have started for pre-Christmas critique, Thursday 17th December.

Can all check the requirements and agenda.

This week will focus on detailing and drawing up the hub and finalising the showcase/event (brief) - this is already in place - but the days up to Thursday will allow you to check, amend and clarify.

Instructions and guidelines on studynet. Make sure you know what you need to do.

Good luck everyone. h

ps------Remember we are showing the work in January at Iniva - I will start the editing for the DVD this week, this will be an ongoing process and I ask everyone to respond to any image/drawing requests promptly, as and when. Many thanks.

Aliens and other in-betweeners

Nada Prlja, "Local Globalism", 2007 - 2008

Iniva panel discussion attended last night - very interesting and relevant to our own discussion on art and culture; through our spatial explorations in the Shoreditch area. Many new ideas grow from attending discussions, events, exhibitions - next time, come along.

Myself a 'trans-national, alien'.. and borderline artist/designer - living in a different place to that where I was born.. or, probably more accurately, 'in-between' the place where I was born (1), grew up (2) and where I now reside and work (3). Those students that attended the event had a rich and real experience and had the opportunity to meet the artists afterwards. Collaborative ideas, links made. Thanks Iniva.

The Role of 'Nation' in artists' work

For your diaries >>>>>>>>Thursday evening -

29th October 2009 - free talk/event -

6.30pm start - booking essential - not to be missed

check the iniva webiste for info and bookings

"Gabriela Salgado, Curator Tate Modern and artists Nada Prlja and Alexandra Handal discuss the role of 'nation' in artists' work. Is the concept of ‘nation' still a relevant subject for artists working today in both their practice and the way we view their work? The panel will consider this in the context of nations being established over the past 50 years and the consequent effects of globalisation".
