LondonLINDA BENGLIS IN CONVERSATION WITH GREGOR MUIR talk/event
 Feb 10, 2012 1:15pm
American sculptor Lynda Benglis joins us for this lunchtime talk with ICA Director Gregor Muir to discuss her practice and the changing shape of culture in the 21st century.
Benglis is known primarily for her wax paintings and poured latex sculptures, and rose to prominence during the 1960s and 70s, a time when her singular practice both intersected with and transcended the categories of post-Minimalism and feminist art. Alongside her sculptural output, Benglis created a radical body of work in video, photography, and media interventions that explore notions of power, gender relations, and role-playing.
Tickets £5.

WIMBLEDON space EnglandJEANNIE DRIVER AND CHRISTOPHER LUNDIE talk/event
 Feb 10, 2012 6:00pm - 7:00pm
Jeannie Driver and Christopher Lundie explore the conceptual qualities of paper: the way which it begins to articulate a complex set of ideas from repetition, materiality, consumption and production while maintaining its strong aesthetic and creative presence as an art object.
Jeannie Driver makes work from the A4 waste office paper. This ubiquitous material is a symbol of immaterial production and a signifier of the bureaucracy. Through re-processing the discarded material, Jeannie makes works that reference issues of consumption, flow and waste. www.jeanniedriver.com.
Christopher Lundie is researching the relationship between repetition and printmaking. His work challenges the processes involved in print production. He enjoys the repetitive nature of printmaking and exaggerates this at all stages of production: inconsistencies in the printing press, ink, paper, and matrix are highly controlled to produce small changes to each edition. Christopher is the SHP Resident Artist in Printmaking. christopherlundie.wordpress.com
The talk is followed by the Opening Reception of the Ubiquitous Materials exhibition, 7-8.30pm - all welcome!
6-7pm, £10 (concessions & members £8) bookings: 01344 484123; www.southhillpark.org.uk.
