The Stones of Menace
-------------
The austere architecture of Brutalism is often vilified as producing social neglect rather than the vibrant community life envisioned by its architects. Art, on the contrary, is mostly seen as a potent tool to create social cohesion.
In this show we would like to explore polemical perspectives on architecture and art and open up a debate on the role of culture as a source of conflict and criticism.
We are looking for work that reflects on the relationship between art/architecture and its social/physical context or deals with issues of creative expressions of violence and social discontent. Work can include video, performance, 2D and 3D work, presentations/lectures.
The call for entries is now closed.
Those selected will be contacted by the 28th February 2010.
Scare in the Community is a collaboration
between Julika Gittner and Jon Purnell.
