News: PURE profile – help and what to do

Now is a great time to make sure your Pure profile is up-to-date and does justice to all the work you’ve put into your Research and Knowledge Exchange. Pure provides the detailed public face of the university’s research. It feeds search engines very well and is the main way peers, senior staff and students, as well as the press and public get to find out more about you and your work. There is a Sharepoint site to help you through the mechanics of adding material to the system. Access to the editor is through the link  https://cris.brighton.ac.uk/.   Any problems or questions with this end of things, please contact Pure Support <Pure-Support@brighton.ac.uk> A few reminders of the basics.

These should be in paragraphs rather than […]

Research and Knowledge Exchange (RAKE) Week to take place from 11th – 15th November 2024. This is a great opportunity for staff to share our research and make connections between our teaching, research, and knowledge exchange.

Event: Exhibition Fergus Heron Phonex Art Space: Project Space, Brighton | 5-13 October 2024 Preview from 6pm 4 October 2024 – Phonex Place, Brighton

The exhibition previews on Friday 4 October from 6pm. You are all very welcome. Exhibition is open Wednesday – Sunday 12-5pm. An exhibition featuring new work by Fergus Heron takes place as part of Photo Fringe 2024 at Phoenix Art Space Project Space in Brighton. The work develops earlier projects picturing urban environments, including Albion Street 2017, showing and returning the view from the window of Heron’s studio in Phoenix Art Space. This new project titled Phoenix Place, depicting the immediate vicinity of Phoenix Art Space, is partly inspired by art historian Nikolaus Pevsner’s perambulation into Phoenix Place described in The Buildings of England: Sussex East with Brighton and Hove. In connection, dialogue is created between different kinds of observations. Heron’s pictures propose a sense of place made up of composite views, some imagined from the past, layered with others seen in the present. The exhibition addresses the Photo Fringe […]
