Art and Cities
|
Art and Cities promotes the better understanding of cities and urban life through art and the role of art and artists in urban renewal. It aims to provide opportunities for exploring all forms of contemporary urban art, including painting, photography, architecture... Activities are likely to include exhibition visits and discussions, visits to areas of interest, studio visits, workshops and exhibitions. Art and Cities intends to continue the work of the London Arts Café, which, from 1996-2008 produced an extensive programme of activities, many of which were documented in its magazine, 'Art and Cities.' The final issue of the magazine, still available, is a retrospective look at its 12 years of existence. The London Arts Café web site also gives a good idea of past activities at http://londonarts...

"hi peter.....i've been looking at a big ugly electricity substation wall for ages. it really needs beautifying. green lanes, quite a lot of deprivation. a lot of eastern mediterranean sexism. something for women is required, incorporating the "danger of death" signs. going to the may68 conference next weekend. agitprop for inspiration. plan classical images, gods and goddesses from british museum. gnomic slogans. banksy becomes gransky. i need partners in crime! can you help?"
