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. We are aiming to offer a wide range of sessions and activities focusing on research or knowledge exchange that will be open to all students and colleagues, as well as sessions targeted for staff development and REG activities. Do NOTE that the blog site for this is underdevelopment. This year we plan to hold a Postgraduate Research Day for PGR and PGT students on the 13th November and we will work with MA Course Leaders and the Doctoral College Lead to co-produce the sessions. In order to maximise attendance during research week we are suggesting a mixed mode of engagement, and would encourage staff where appropriate to arrange sessions that align with timetabled events, so that targeted students […]
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 […]

Working Together was a partnership project between a university, a gallery and a community organisation that grew out of an MA Inclusive Arts Practice module of the same name. It provided a creative and social space for people with learning disabilities, students, graduates and gallery, university and support staff to work together, meaningfully engage with an arts venue and exhibition, make art and co-learn and co-produce knowledge. We have produced a toolkit to share learning and resources that aims to support people to work together to make art, explore exhibitions and have creative conversations. We have also created our dream galleries to think about how everyone can be meaningfully included in gallery programmes. We would love it if you were able to join us at the Towner Gallery 11am-1pm on Wed 17th July to celebrate our toolkit and project and be part of creative conversations and activities to explore […]

The exhibition presents a selection of work by six artists from our Photography Research Group; Holly Birtles, Daniel C. Blight, Zoe Childerley, Fergus Heron, Asa Johannesson and Martin Seeds. Stranger than fiction Exhibition 5-9 June 2024 Phoenix Art Space, 10-14 Waterloo Place, Brighton, BN2 9NB With individual practices engaging with diverse themes, common to this exhibition are tensions between the real and imagined; embracing the strangeness of photography to comment upon social experiences, see places as they seem to appear, and evoke uncanny visions of worlds yet to be. Artists with work featured in the exhibition are practice-based researchers and lecturers contributing to teaching on the undergraduate and postgraduate photography courses in the fine art subject area of the School of Art and Media at the University of Brighton.

The exhibition is the outcome of an arts-based research project, collaboratively produced by Matt Adams, Principal Lecturer in Psychology, School of Humanities and Social Science and Jim Wilson, a designer and maker in the School of Art and Media, University of Brighton, with additional support from various technical specialists in SAM. Featuring a series of dioramas, combined with images, text and audio features, the exhibition reimagines an aspect of the life and work of Russian psychophysiologist Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936). Remembered today for revolutionising psychology, here Pavlov’s dogs, once anonymous experimental subjects, take centre stage in a darkly playful twist on accepted androcentric and anthropocentric narratives, shattering preconceptions about Pavlov’s methods, supposedly docile experimental animals, and the universal laws of science. Tapping into our enduring fascination for miniature worlds, the three-dimensional scale models incorporate dogs, humans, lab equipment, surgical appendages, experimental procedures, parkland, architecture, interior design and medical technology. Highlights include the sinister goings on in the Towers of Silence, an antivivisection […]

Each student has been tasked with producing an edition of prints in each of the four main printmaking areas, screen, litho, etching and relief. Returning back to each process has allowed the student to develop new skills and insights into their own working practice. This term has been full of challenges, from collaborative printmaking, group activities and small student led exhibitions, they have risen to the challenge and begun to form a discernable identity as an artist. From an intensively taught semester 1 they are now developing real independence of practice which is vitally important as they move into L5. Watching their journey this year has been immensely exciting and we wait eagerly to see what they will do next year. Image credit – created by students.

Vanessa Marr (Domestic Dusters) and Katy Styles (We Care) were awarded the 3rd Sector Care Creative Arts Award in Birmingham on 15 March 2024. This award recognises exceptional practice that supports the care sector. We Care, a grassroots organisation run by Katy Styles, campaigns for the rights of unpaid carers, and Domestic Dusters, practice-based research project by Principal lecturer Vanessa Marr, who uses embroidered dusting cloths to champion the rights of women, share a mutual interest in the invisible nature of care in a domestic context. Both partners have singlehandedly built their initiatives from scratch, fuelled by a desire to translate lived-experience into positive change-making and impact-led activities. This craft-activist collaboration has united unpaid carers in in a common creative and change-making cause to improve their rights, giving them a voice where they would otherwise be silenced, unheard or ignored. The carers, many of them parents or spouses of those they […]

“I cannot penetrate, cannot reach into the Photograph. I can only sweep it with my glance, like a smooth surface” (Barthes, 2000: 106) We are pleased to announce the call for papers for the International research symposium that focuses on the intricate relationships between photography and autobiographical memory, which is scheduled to take place on 18 July 2024 at The University for the Creative Arts in Canterbury, UK. This interdisciplinary event aims to explore ways in which 21st century artists, photographic practitioners and other researchers attempt to reach and rummage beyond the smooth surface of the photograph, and contemplate its relationship and contributions to the construction of autobiographical memory. We invite scholars, artists, academics, practitioner-researchers, researcherpractitioners, and other professionals doing research into relationships between memory and images created through the “frightfully speculative eye” (Deleuze, 1990: 243) of the photographic camera to propose papers and panels that explore, but are not […]

This autumn Bonington Gallery at Nottingham Trent University presents The Art Schools of the East Midlands, the latest iteration of John Beck’s and Matthew Cornford’s ambitious Art School Project to locate and document the nation’s art school buildings or the sites upon which they once stood. The project combines photography, text, and archival materials to explore the histories and legacies of Britain’s art schools, and examine the vital role art schools have played, and continue to play, in the cultural and economic life of our towns and cities. For full details refer to the exhibition website. The twin Victorian engines of industrial ambition and social reform powered the British art school system, set up to deliver a skilled labour force for local industry – such as lace manufacture in Nottingham – and much needed educational opportunities to the newly enfranchised working class. Art schools combined practical training and exposure to culture, turning […]
