LATEST PUBLICATIONS

Silicon Fen
With texts by Iain Sinclair, Simon Willmoth, Steven Bode, Sean Cubitt and Tom Williamson
Silicon Fen
ISBN  978-1-904270-27-0
PRICE  £12.00

A record of a long-running visual arts project that took place at venues across the east of England between 2004 and 2007, Silicon Fen considers how landscape in general (and the East Anglian landscape in particular) has been both affected and reflected by technology. Immersing themselves in the distinctive history and topography of the region, whose remote, almost desolate vistas belie the complex nature of its substantially man-made environment, the participating artists (Suky Best, Susan Collins, Dalziel + Scullion, Annabel Howland, Stephen Hughes and TNWK) contribute works that capture the unique character of the Fenland landscape and whose facility with digital forms of image-making brings their subject into sharper focus.
     
The Memorial Walks
The Memorial Walks
ISBN  978-1-904270-26-3
PRICE  £10.00

The Memorial Walks celebrates a unique project, in which artist Simon Pope invited a series of writers to memorise a scene from a landscape painting, which they would then be asked to recall while out walking in the open country. Continuing the exploration of memory and place at the heart of Simon Pope's multi-disciplinary practice, this artist's book acts as a 'field guide' to the seventeen different walks that made up project and features recollections from well-known literary names such as Geoff Dyer, Iain Sinclair, Hari Kunzru, Trezza Azzopardi and Tom McCarthy.
