THE COSMOS
Apr 1 - May 27, 2012
The Cosmos, the first of Wysing’s series of artist residencies for 2012, launches with a series of talks and events by artists, experts and enthusiasts from organisations ranging from the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge University to the Pumpkin Patch Observatory in Bourn village.
Four artists and artist groups, Salvatore Arancio, Flora Parrott, Nilsson Pflugfelder and Stuart Whipps, will be in residence at Wysing Arts Centre in rural Cambridgeshire for six weeks from 1 April, where they will develop new work taking The Cosmos as a starting point, culminating in a public presentation in Wysing’s gallery. The residency process includes events and public presentations made by invited individuals and groups, which profiles the knowledge and interests of people living close to Wysing’s Bourn village location and offers new thoughts and tangents on the theme. In addition, and reinforcing the literary influences on the residencies, Escalator artist-in-residence Patrick Coyle will document the year long programme of residencies through creative writing.

WYSING ARTS CONTEMPORARY : RECOLLECT
Jun 9 - Jul 8, 2012
A group exhibition of work for sale that explores buildings as expanded personal archives and depositories for memories. Taking Wysing's iconic outdoor structure Amphis as its starting point, a structure that was made with materials donated to the centre, the exhibition will focus on the connection between architectural space, memory and experience and will include archive footage of the creation of other Wysing structures, including a Walking House, alongside sculpture, drawing, photography and video. A number of events will bring artists and experts together to discuss the connection between art and architecture.
