Paula Kane, Studio Wall
What procedures
are adopted by contemporary painters and why? How are technologies
adapted and appropriated into the methods and processes of painting?
What kinds of skills do painters need? The Processes of Painting
explored questions about methodologies and technologies as well
as notions of expression and intention through a series of conversations
with painters who teach at the UAL.
Speakers included:
Stella Capes, Mikey Cuddihy, Jeff Dennis, Richard Dyer, Mick Finch, Rebecca Fortnum, Dereck Harris, Katrine
Hjelde,
Vanessa Jackson, Paula Kane, Katie Pratt, Mario Rossi and Daniel Sturgis.
The event was organized in collaboration with a newly formed Painting Research Group at UAL called Paint Club, open to all interested in developing painting research within the University and beyond. It has been supported by Central St Martins, Chelsea, Wimbledon, Camberwell and Byam Shaw.
How Art Thinks is an ICFAR research project that
aims to explore artists' narratives as well as find new ways to
document artists' processes. This symposium coincided with the
evening launch at the October Gallery of Studio Wall: Paula
Kane published by eyeseefar, ICFAR'S new publishing
imprint and RGAP (Research Group for Artists Publications)
in collaboration with the Visual
Intelligences Research Project at LICA, Lancaster University.
