BRUCE RIMELL- Modern Palaeolithic
10 November - 11 December
Modern Palaeolithic springs from Bruce Rimell's long-standing personal interest in Palaeolithic imagery and draws upon insights into the archetypal hunter-gatherer mode of life which forms the majority time-period of human evolution. Drawing from archaeological data, the findings of specialists such as Lewis-Williams and Henshilwood, and from personal visits to Palaeolithic sites such as Altamira, Ekain and Creswell Crags, this exhibition explores the experiental, mythical and cosmogonical motifs thought to have been understood by the cultures of the Upper Palaeolithic from the Atlantic coast of Western Europe to Lake Baikal in Eastern Siberia.

John Latham, 1921 - 2006, was born in Rhodesia, studeid at Chelsea Schhol of Art and taught at St. Martin's School of Art. He founded the Artists Placement Group (APG) in 1968 and his filmmaking began in 1960 with Unedited Material From Star but developed to embrace collaborative works with the Event Structure Research Group, abstract animation in the 1960's, and works made for television in the 1990's.
Britannica is concerned with information, in particular our ability to read and digest the knowledge stored in the multi-volume encyclopaedia is challenged by Latham's acceleration of time - his other major preoccupation - through film animation.
Samuel Fisher

Taxonomy
Blenheim Walk
19 October - 6 November
Leeds Artist Samuel Fisher studied architecture at the University of Cambridge and his primary interest lies in architecture being commoditised for investment vehicles reducing buildings to the lowest common denominator; homogenous spaces of consumption, production or transit. Partly inspired by the geometries of Islamic art, his photoconstructed works capture stages of construction that act as brief moments of redemption before the buildings relapse into a mundane state for the remainder of their lives. Other work focuses upon abandoned buildings from the mid twentieth century and low-technology represented as a form of heightened beauty.
