List members may be interested in the following study day:
THE ARCHIVAL IMPULSE: ARTISTS & ARCHIVES
Organised by ARLIS\UK & Ireland Visual Archives Committee in partnership with Tate Britain
There is increasing interest among artists in the processes of documenting practice, the construction of archives, and in the interrogation of the meaning of the past.
This study day explores why the archive has become a central issue in contemporary artistic strategy. Bringing together leading artists, archivists, museum professionals and theorists it examines how the archive has been figured, contested and constructed by artists and seeks out the theoretical thinking behind a critical engagement with the past in order to provide a creative space for the future. Contributors include Bruce McLean, Julie Bacon, Ruth Maclennan, Uriel Orlow, Neal White, Sue Donnelly and Clive Phillpot.
Venue: Tate Britain Auditorium, London, SW1P 4RG.
Date and time: Friday 16th November, 10:00am - 6:00pm
Cost: £25.00 (£20.00 concessions)
[Please note that lunch is not included in this price. However, tea, coffee and biscuits will be available and the event will be followed by a wine reception to which delegates are invited]
