TC McCormack<\/a> and Marie-Jos\u00e9 Ourtilane are developing a project that explores a principle that might be called the complex space (espace complexe<\/em>), the title of a series of exhibitions through which curators and artists experiment with their relationships. ESPACE COMPLEXE<\/em> implicitly refers to dialogue, to an idea developed by Edgar Morin: \u2018Two principles united without duality being lost or vanishing in this unity. [T]he problem is to unite antagonistic notions to think about the organisational and creative processes. The word complex is understood here in the etymological sense of the term, i.e. \u201ccomplexus what is woven together in a tangle of intertwining (plexus)\u201d\u2019.<\/p>\n

TC McCormack\u2019s central preoccupation has always been how one navigates the space between the legacy of modernism and the reach of contemporaneous media. He is an artist, researcher, and curator. His work is primarily based in film and installation, while spanning photography, collage, and text, involving searching through media and archives for speculative contexts, in the social sphere, film history, sculpture, technology, museology, architecture, and urban planning. His work is commissioned by galleries and arts institutions in the UK and internationally.<\/p>\n

Marie-Jos\u00e9 Ourtilane studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Le Havre and the Faculty of Art History of Paris I Pantheon-Sorbonne. In the 1990s she moved to Berlin. She founded and was a member of numerous art projects, including the gallery-residence Visite ma tente 2010-15 and the project space General Public. She works as a freelance curator and has been the director of Project Space Festival since 2016.<\/p>\n

Transmission<\/em><\/a>\u00a0is an annual series of lectures and symposia, now in its seventeenth year, and is a collaboration between Fine Art, the Art & Design Research Centre at Sheffield Hallam University, and\u00a0Site Gallery<\/a>. Convened by Sharon Kivland in 2001,\u00a0Transmission<\/em>\u00a0was developed collaboratively with Lesley Sanderson from 2001 to 2004, and with Jasper Joseph-Lester from 2004 to 2012. The\u00a0series is now convened by Sharon Kivland, TC McCormack, Hester\u00a0Reeve,\u00a0and Julie\u00a0Westerman,\u00a0in association with Site\u00a0Gallery,\u00a0Sheffield. The lecture series has an annual theme, and involves students\u00a0from\u00a0Fine\u00a0Art,\u00a0fromundergraduates\u00a0to\u00a0PhDs.<\/p>\n

Transmission<\/em> is the passing of information via a channel, and this is the intention of the Transmission<\/em> project. We enquire about the aesthetic and discursive forms required by practices in the field of contemporary art and theory that address sociality and subjectivity. It has encompassed a lecture programme, seminar discussions, an annual symposium, a print portfolio, four series of books: Transmission Annual, The Rules of Engagement, Transmission chapbooks, and five volumes of discussions\/interviews, entitled Transmission: Speaking and Listening. These are published by Artwords Press, London.<\/p>\n

Site Gallery\u00a0is Sheffield\u2019s international contemporary art space, specialising in moving image, new media, and performance. Pioneering emerging art practices and ideas, Site works in partnership with local, regional, and international collaborators to nurture artistic talent and support\u00a0the\u00a0development\u00a0of\u00a0 contemporary\u00a0art.\u00a0At\u00a0the\u00a0heart\u00a0of\u00a0what\u00a0Site\u00a0does\u00a0is\u00a0the connection of people\u00a0to\u00a0artists\u00a0and\u00a0to\u00a0art,\u00a0inspiring\u00a0new thinking\u00a0and\u00a0debate\u00a0through\u00a0its\u00a0public\u00a0programmes and participatory\u00a0activity.\u00a0Through\u00a0diverse\u00a0programming,\u00a0Site reveals\u00a0the\u00a0process\u00a0of\u00a0making\u00a0art\u00a0to invite\u00a0its\u00a0audience\u00a0to engage,\u00a0explore,\u00a0and\u00a0connect.\u00a0In\u00a02018\u00a0Site\u00a0Gallery\u00a0re-opened after\u00a0a\u00a0building programme\u00a0which\u00a0trebled\u00a0the\u00a0scale\u00a0of\u00a0its\u00a0public area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
