PANEL DISCUSSION
“ When we study, discuss, analyse a reality, we analyse it as it appears in our mind, in our memory. We know reality only in the past tense. We do not know what it is in the present, in the moment when it is happening, when it is. The present moment is unlike the memory of it. Remembering is not the negative of forgetting. Remembering is a form of forgetting .” (Milan Kundera 1995)
An intervention with historical archives, taxonomy and museology is a gesture of alternative knowledge or counter-memory offering the possibility of an alternative future. The panel discussion will offer an opportunity to further expand and interrogate the conceptual threads of 'They Do Things Differently There'. Please join our group of eleven postgraduate curators along with guest speakers Anne-Marie Kramer (University of Warwick), Daniel Watt (Loughborough University) and Nicholas Oddy (Glasgow School of Art) for this informal yet informative event.
FREE event but due to limited seating booking is essential. Please email rocca.gutteridge@eca.ac.uk to confirm a place for the discussion.
STORYTELLING GALLERY AUDIO TOUR
Postgraduate curators Rocca Gutteridge and Sarah Morris collaborate with New Media Scotland to produce this unique storytelling audio tour. The gallery audience will be able to engage creatively with the artwork and theme of the exhibition by drawing on the notion that “The ways in which we look at the past are always relative because time is forever moving forward, and as soon as the present seems the only identifiable entity, it is no longer the present, but at once, the past.” A series of three narrated short stories, together with a digital overlay narration, will grant the viewer a thought-provoking exploration of our curatorial theme while simultaneously grounding them back to the gallery space itself.
STORYTELLER GALLERY TOUR
Professional storyteller, Mara Menzies will become the catalyst for dialogue between an intimate group of six young adults and six elderly people. Through the sharing of a story specifically created for this tour, she will lead participants through the gallery space illustrating ideas of shared and private histories, memories and perceptions of time.
