Here's my latest
interview which has been published by
International Times. This interview is with
Jago Cooper, Director of the the
Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts:
"Building on these radical foundations, Dr Jago Cooper, as Director of the Sainsbury Centre, and his team have been helping people find new ways to move, feel, think, and activate themselves within the museum and build new relationships with living work of arts in their own way. These approaches include: a pay what you can afford entry scheme; curated journeys through the collection; a Handbook for Meeting Living Art which suggests practical steps and techniques; and a new Living Art exhibition that allows visitors, who don’t want digital or text-based approaches, to feel what is meant when thinking about living art."
Earlier I
reviewed the
'What is Truth?' season of exhibitions for International Times and wrote an
article for
Seen and Unseen -
'Life is more important than art' - which reviews the themes of recent art exhibitions, such as those at the Sainsbury Centre, which tackle life’s big questions and the roles creators take.
My earlier reviews for International Times were of:
'Giacometti in Paris' by Michael Peppiatt; the first
Pissabed Prophet album - 'Zany in parts, moving in others, you’ll be hard pressed to find a more unusual, inspired & profound album this year. ‘Pissabed Prophet’ will thrill, intrigue, amuse & inspire' - and
'Religion and Contemporary Art: A Curious Accord', a book which derives from a 2017 symposium organised by the
Association of Scholars of Christianity in the History of Art.
Several of my short stories have been published by
IT including three about
Nicola Ravenscroft's
EarthAngel sculptures (then called mudcubs), which we exhibited at
St Andrew's Wickford last Autumn. The first story in the series is '
The Mudcubs and the O Zone holes'. The second is
'The Mudcubs and the Clean-Up King', and the third is '
The mudcubs and the Wall'.
My other short stories to have been published by International Times are '
The Black Rain', a story about the impact of violence in our media, '
The New Dark Ages', a story about principles and understandings that are gradually fading away from our modern societies, and '
The curious glasses', a story based on the butterfly effect.
