The Centre for Research into Expanded Dramaturgies at the University of Winchester will be holding its fourth event in the series 'Architectonics of Performance'. Professor Jane Rendell: Site-Writing: Art, Architecture and Criticism 'Site-writing' was first initiated as a pedagogic tool through site-specific writing courses at the Bartlett from 2001, and then as a mode of spatializing writing in texts and projects published from 1998 onwards, and now brought together in a forthcoming book: Site-Writing: The Architecture of Art Criticism (London: IB Tauris, 2010). In this lecture, Professor Rendell will be discussing this book, with some background, emphasizing the relationship between spatiality, subjectivity and textuality in writing practices, and describing a project within it. The project is supported by the University of Winchester. Biography: Professor Jane Rendell BA (Hons), Dip Arch, MSc, PhD is Director of Architectural Research at the Bartlett, UCL.
