Pavilion will be presenting a series of screenings and events with artist Elizabeth Price in June (15-19) and I thought her work might be of interest to some of you. Elizabeth is an artist who uses "digital video and reprographic media, to reformulate and re-inscribes collections and archives using artefacts drawn from the debris of modernism, popular culture, consumerism and science-fiction." She is currently creating an ongoing series of work called The New Ruined Institute in which each video 'episode' unfolds a different room within a fictional museum. We will be screening the first two parts of the work - WELCOME (the Atrium) and USER GROUP DISCO (the Hall of Sculptures) at Pavilion during the week. We are also running two events with Elizabeth. There's more info about screening times and the events on our newsletter here: http://www.pavilion.org.uk/public/public_html/Newsletters/Elizabeth_Price.htm and there's also an interesting Art Monthly interview with Elizabeth and Paul O'Neill here http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_6735/is_326/ai_n31944778/ that gives some more insight into her practice.
If you are interested in the work and would like to come down as a group (or as individuals!) just let me know (gill@pavilion.org.uk) (It's a small space so we're asking people to book) The two videos last 19 minutes in total!
Best Wishes
Gill - Programme Producer (Interaction), Pavilion
