TART 2014

The artist Duncan Campbell has just been shortlisted for the Turner prize. Anne gave him his first US show at TART in 2005.

Duncan Campbell’s film “Falls Burns Malone Fiddles” draws out the processes whereby people do nothing and something happens. It is a sort of aesthetization of everyday existence visible in the hairstyles, the fashions and aspirations of the moment…

Update: Campbell won the 2014 Turner Prize!

As TART was conceived to exist for no more than 3-4 years (our first show was in 2004 our last, 2008), the website I designed has become the space’s primary archive.

The Shape of a Pocket

Anne’s work reached new heights at the beginning of the year with a stunning, commissioned exhibition for the Mills College Art Museum.

With screens set amongst paper rock sculptures, Colvin’s newly commissioned three-channel video installation A Granite Note creates a haunting call and response refrain using abstracted visual and sonic fragments of boats, flowers and pipers that extend and shrink the chasm between time and image.

Work at MASS MoCA

Mass MoCA poster

I designed this poster for a show that Anne was in at MASS MoCA. She showed her video work Cracked Actor which was part of Moyra Davey‘s One Minute Film Festival which is being celebrated with this exhibition:

The One Minute Film Festival took place annually in a barn outside of a small town in upstate New York, on the first Saturday after the 4th of July, from 2003-2012. On that day, artists, writers, film- and video-makers would arrive in the afternoon with food and drink and a one-minute movie. After sunset, everyone took their seats and the movies began, usually lasting two or three hours, and afterwards people danced. The festival was organized and hosted by artists Jason Simon and Moyra Davey.

Holiday Reblog

Thinking about the holidays again – already! Originally posted on Anne’s blog, 12 February 2012:

We spent a wonderful three weeks back in Blighty over Christmas and New Year – from London to Okehampton to Edinburgh to Newton Stewart and Glasgow for the day – visiting our family and friends. Managed to fit in some shows at The Fruitmarket Gallery, Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, The Dean Gallery, CCA, TATE Modern, Gagosian and Seventeen Gallery but my favorite experience was Martin Creed’s Work No.1059… here is the original post →
