Charter Of The Forest
6th & 7th August 2011
Tereza Buskova / Richard DeDomenici / James Wilkes and Townley & Bradby / Via Vaudeville! / Boyd Webb / Carey Young
A weekend of performances, guides, talks and artworks at Chambers Farm Wood in Lincolnshire.
Situated amongst Lincolnshire's historic woodlands, Charter of the Forest brings together six artists of which four have been commissioned to develop new work that draws upon the historic Charter of the Forest document, presented alongside existing video works which point towards key issues raised through the project.
Often known as the 'Charter of the Common Man', the Charter of the Forest provided new rights for ordinary people, permitting hunting, foraging and the free use of forestland. New artworks will explore the social, historical and natural impact of the charter document, whist also investigating our public use of woodlands today.
Charter of the Forest at Chambers Farm Wood has been developed in partnership with The Collection and the Forestry Commission.
