Becky Shaw and Amanda Ravetz began working together through a research council funded project ODD: Feeling different in the world of education<\/em>. The project brings together artists, anthropologists, and educational researchers to explore how politics, school policy, environment, and children interact to produce a child\u2019s embodied experience of what it is to fit, or not fit in. They will talk about ODD<\/em> and other works, touching on \u2018artists ethics\u2019, the \u2018meniscus\u2019 between artists and participants in social works, live art and image, the visceral, and what it is to try to work \u2018lightly and slightly\u2019 in prescribed commissions or research projects.<\/p>\n

Becky Shaw<\/a> is an artist, occasional writer, martial artist, Reader in Fine Art, and leader of the Art and Design Research Centre PhD programme at SHU. She makes live works in institutions of care, industry, and education, and institutions that try to do all three. The works happen in (and generate) complicated and easily broken relationships with organisations, participants, and commissioners. Recent works include How Deep is your Love?<\/em>, commissioned by the City of Calgary, Alberta, Water Services, and the ongoing Paper Exercise<\/em> exploring the local authority use of \u2018paperjackets\u2019 to hide empty shops and conjure a better class of customer.<\/p>\n

Amanda Ravetz<\/a> is Professor of Visual and Social Practice at Manchester Metropolitan University. Current preoccupations are growth, transformation, loss, and decay, understood as intimations of liveness. Recent research includes Black Gold: trustworthiness in artistic research (seen from the sidelines of arts and health)<\/em> in Interdisciplinary Sciences Review 43, 3\u20134 and On Reverie, Collaboration and Recovery<\/em>\u00a0in Collaborative Anthropologies 10, 1\u20132.<\/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,\u00a0from undergraduates\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 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":"
