Construction and its Shadow
Seminar, Henry Moore Institute
Wednesday May 11, 14:00-18:00
This seminar is based on contemporary exchanges and arguments with artists from the British Construction and Systems groups. These exchanges, from positions frequently outside the constructive or systems based paradigm, seek to bring those models back in to contemporary debate. The work selected for the current collections display at Leeds Art Gallery, Construction and its Shadow, proposes argument as a form of communication between generations, based on the belief that a largely overlooked area of British Abstraction has much to offer contemporary practice and theory, and with this seminar, presents an opportunity to extend the debates of modernism. This event and exhibition, organised by the artist Andrew Bick, are the outcomes of his Henry Moore Institute Fellowship.
