a full day yesterday – the teaching at Camberwell saw me running two seminars that had presentations at their core – we started to consider the catalogue for the final show and what its role might be for this year’s student cohort http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/catalogue-what-2011-6859005 its interesting to look at all the catalogues since the beginning of the course - it really is an interesting archive - and to remember the conversations that have taken place over time – the introduction of the virtual and how the group dynamics inform the intention around the catalogue as well as the final design. in the afternoon there was also a conversation around research and its relationship to the final essay http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/writing-context-2011-6858951 supported by this year’s part-time students who have already gone through the process it was a very full presentation with lots to consider – but the possibilities are endless.
before getting the train home (late!) and going for a drink in the city with a friend i managed to see the second in the must see shows in London at the moment the Gabriel Orozco exhibition is magnificent http://www.tate.org.uk/modern/exhibitions/gabrielorozco/default.shtm there are the signature pieces – which are fun but the ‘folded ink blot pieces’ and the circular drawings really captured me – the catalogue is so full of ideas and work which makes you rethink the act of looking.
