LIVE LONG AND PROSPER…

Welcome to 2016 where we fold and bend time and perspectives, clashing fiction, fact, science and art as we present new and existing works by Larissa Sansour. In times where much media and news reporting references apocalyptic contexts, Sansour reconstructs our understanding of power and colonisation, with sci-fi inspired films, objects and an occupation of Palestinauts. As part of our three day Future Perfect? Film Festival, Larissa Sansour discusses her practice during a special in conversation and she will provide valuable critique as we showcase the work of exciting filmmaking talents.

This season we launch Saturday Art Club for families, as we continually find ways to nurture the creativity of young people. We celebrate our neighbourhood’s cultural diversity, hosting a Persian New Year and a Polish Fat Thursday donut day. Bahbak Hashemi-Nezhad revisits a fascinating local citizen-led project that emerged in the 1970s, Hyson Green Workshop Units, through an exhibition, creative workshops, and a panel discussion which looks at the possibilities of citizen design activism. We continue to support Tasawar Bashir, our Academic in Residence, who immerses us in the science fictions of Sufi sounds, introducing the Su-Fi aesthetic.

We hope to see you participating, animating and informing our programme. Travel far with us this year!

Artist Larissa Sansour was born in Jerusalem and her practice is underscored by the urgency of Palestine’s political problems. She typically deploys dry wit and pop culture references in her work as a means of cutting through cultural divides and connecting the international community with the universal relevance of this situation. Allusions to comic strips, sit coms and Hollywood films feature heavily throughout Sansour’s previous works, however this exhibition focuses specifically on her more recent exploration into the genre of sci-fi.

The show concludes with Sansour’s newest work in film, In the Future They Ate From the Finest Porcelain (2015). Addressing the politics of archaeology, this piece depicts a resistance group burying elaborate porcelain which is suggested to belong to this entirely fictional civilisation. Their aim is to influence history and support future claims to their vanishing lands. Once unearthed, this tableware will prove the existence of this counterfeit people. By implementing a myth of its own, their work becomes a historical intervention – de facto creating a nation.

Larissa Sansour will be discussing her work as part of Future Perfect? Film Festival (see page 10).

The exhibition begins with A Space Exodus (2009). Inspired by Stanley Kubric’s iconic film, with a nod towards Neil Armstrong’s moon walk, the piece depicts a female Palestinian astronaut travelling to the extremities of outer space in order to claim land for her nation. Palestinauts (2010), a collection of toy-like astronauts bearing the Palestinian flag on their space suits, swarm the gallery, playfully extending the dialogue around power and colonisation. In the film installation Nation Estate (2012) Sansour’s use of irony and humour continues, however here she also introduces fantastical CGI aesthetics to showcase the absurdity and surrealism of Palestine’s situation. The film explores a vertical solution to Palestinian’s diminishing claim to land – their own state in the form of a single skyscraper with a floor dedicated to each Palestinian city.

EXHIBITIONS

In the Future They Ate From the Finest Porcelain is co-commissioned by FLAMIN Productions through Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network with funding from Arts Council England; New Art Exchange; Bluecoat, Liverpool; Wolverhampton Art Gallery, Wolverhampton; and The Mosaic Rooms, A.M.Qattan Foundation, London; with support from Doha Film Institute; The Danish Arts Council, Arts Council England, Iambic Film, Knud Højgaards Fond and Contemporary Art Platform – Kuwait. Produced by Spike Film and Video, Bristol.

Faced with ill-considered planning and architectural flaws of mass social housing, the active citizens of the flats, spearheaded by the Hyson Green Tenants Association, reacted by devising alternative modes of co-designing their own environment. Together, the group fought to transform the disused and problematic garages, situated underneath the flats, into spaces for cultural expression, community activity and economic growth.

Bringing together new and existing archival materials, oral histories and artefacts, the exhibition will present a comprehensive overview of this movement. In addition, the gallery will transform into a creative space through hosting a programme of community-led workshops (see page opposite) and we host a panel discussion to explore the social role of citizen design activism and maker spaces today (see page 12).

The Necessary PracticeCENTRAL GALLERY EXHIBITION23 January – 20 March 2016

EXHIBITION LAUNCH Saturday 23 January, 12pm – 2pm

The Necessary Practice examines the difficulties that many graduates face in securing employment in line with their artistic education or talent. Through a body of portraits and a series of interviews with the participants, the exhibition considers how many seek to support their artistic practice through employment outside of the creative industries.

Curated by Nikoo Nikkar Esfahani and photographed by Tom Morley, The Necessary Practice brings together artists from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds. The project aims to promote the hidden ambitions and talents that otherwise go unseen, offering a new perspective to the viewer whilst also giving creative practitioners a new platform to promote themselves and their work.
