Alistair O'Neill
Thursday 18 October, 3:30
for Stage 2 students
Alistair is a Research Fellow at the London College of Fashion. This is what he says about his own work: "As a writer and curator my research centres on the interpretation of visual culture particular to metropolitan contexts. The central project to date has been the single-author publication 'Mapping Fashion in London' for Reaktion Books. The book is an account of the relation between fashionable identities and the capital across the twentieth century that considers unusual instances, much of it drawn from archive sources. Recent exhibitions have focussed on the citation of fashion as a concept in photographic archives, these include 'Wolf Suschitzky: Charing Cross Road in the 1930s' (Elms Lester Painting Rooms, 2004) and 'The Harry Jacobs Archive' (Fashion Space Gallery, LCF, 2003). I am also researching the career of the Savile Row tailor Tommy Nutter." [http://www.arts.ac.uk/15408.htm]

Wednesday 10 October, 12:00
All stages welcome
Kathleen Madden was the Commissioning Editor for Contemporary Art at Phaidon Press where she published Vitamin Ph: New Perspectives in Photography and Ice Cream, the fourth book in the Cream series, which invites ten international curators to select ten emerging artists resulting in a book with 100 international emerging artists. Prior to accepting her position at Phaidon she was working on a PhD with Professor Michael Corris on late-60s conceptual art, looking at the show, When Attitudes Become Form curated by Harald Szeemann in 1969 at the Kunsthalle Bern and later organized by Charles Harrison at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, London. The crux of the thesis is an examination of the impact of traveling this groundbreaking show, where site-specific art was first realized in a museum setting. From 2003-2005 she also worked in the Department of Exhibitions and Displays at Tate Modern and later at the Barbican Art Centre on the exhibition Colour After Klein. She is now a freelance contemporary art book editor, working directly with artists.
Among other things, Kathleen will be discussing her work on the book Vitamin Ph, on some issues of politics and censorship.
