WILLIAMS AND SON<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frank Williams and Alun Williams: paintings and drawings<\/p>\n\n\n\n

March 23 – April 27 2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Private View: Saturday March 23, 12-4pm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open Saturdays and Sundays, 12-4pm and by appointment (contact alunw@pm.me)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This exhibition presents the respective work of a father and son who came to their mutual passion for painting via different routes and whose subjects and techniques are apparently unrelated. One of the premises of the exhibition has been to see if the shared (artistic) DNA of the two artists rises to the surface in any perceptible way. As the first member of the family to attend university, Frank Williams had a career as an architect, and while draughtsmanship was a constant, he was only able to focus fully on painting and drawing much later in life. In consequence, his work has only rarely been presented in public, and this is in contrast to the work of his son, Alun, who was fortunate to study painting (with the clear support of his parents!) and who has exhibited regularly ever since in the UK and overseas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alun Williams has been committed to an exploration of the human presence in his paintings, frequently through a desire to represent specific characters, often historical ones, but rarely with any concern for \u201cresemblance\u201d, as such. This comes from the notion that paint has far more potential and potency for expression than merely by acting as a vehicle for observation. In this quest to give paint as rich a voice as possible, Williams also regularly resorts to referencing Art History. When Frank Williams began immersing himself more intensively in the challenges and pleasures of painting and drawing, about twenty years ago now, his reflex in terms of choice of subject was perhaps a conventional one: portraits, landscapes and the repetitive practice of life-drawing. However, behind this, it\u2019s interesting that when contemplating some of his architectural studies, the viewer might discern a small element or device that would seem to be not strictly necessary \u2013 and therefore somehow of great interest! In a similar way, his portraits and landscapes, and other unrelated works, often include a more or less unexpected detail, element or protocol, which serves to activate the work in a more dynamic way than it perhaps might seem at first sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frank Williams studied architecture at Manchester University, and ended his career by returning to teach in the new MMU School of Architecture, Faculty of Art and Design. In between, he worked first as architect and later as town planner for the City of Manchester, then for private architectural practices, and for an architects\u2019 cooperative. He also later studied architectural conservation and has campaigned, often successfully, to save buildings of historical interest in Manchester.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alun Williams was born in Manchester, studied painting at the University of Wales and Goldsmith\u2019s College in London, as well as at the National Art School in Bourges, France. He has exhibited regularly, mostly in the UK, France and the USA, in galleries, non-profit venues and museums, and his work is represented in numerous private and public collections. He has also been active within organisations offering opportunities to artists. For example, he was one of the founders of the Triangle-Asterides contemporary art center in Marseille, France, is currently co-chair of the Triangle Arts Association in New York, and was founder and director of Parker\u2019s Box, an experimental, artist-run gallery in Brooklyn (2000-2013).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Paths We Cross<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Briony Jenkins, Stephen Milner, Mike Thorpe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn this journey of life, even though we may begin at different times and places, our paths cross with others so that we may share our love, compassion, observations and hope.\u201d<\/em> (Steve Maraboli).
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is so of these three artists, living in Aberdeen, Sale & Macclesfield, brought together via Newlyn in Cornwall, their paths joined by a casual conversation. A path that had crossed forty years before, unknowingly for Briony & Steve as students of Manchester School of Art, but all three universally connected by one birthplace \u2013 Manchester. Now joined in passion for their art, this a first opportunity to engage with their home city.

Their work encompasses painting, collage and film, and embodies each individual\u2019s search for a greater connection through their materials and experiences of landscape and the human form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P.V. Saturday November 4, 2-5pm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shifting Ground is a retrospective exhibition of work resulting from projects undertaken in Europe in the last two decades alongside recent new paintings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work draws on the artists experiences of places containing resonances of social, political or historic changes. From an abandoned Russian airbase in Estonia after the collapse of the Soviet Union in the 90s through post conflict Kosovo to the 1936 Olympic village outside Berlin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The images from these sites become the starting point for paintings of spaces balanced between the real and imaginary that look beyond the landscape to distil the essence of a place capturing the sensations it evokes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The paintings are rooted in the experience of these places but at the same time are mediated notions of landscape refracted through memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition explores themes of memory, history and place and reflects on our relationship with landscape in a shifting and unstable world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ten Obstructions are a porous group of ten artists that came together in late 2019 through bOlder, a Castlefield Gallery artist development programme. This is their sixth group exhibition and they continue to offer each other support critique encouragement and friendship. The exhibiting artists are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maya Chowdhry, Jane Fairhurst, Sarah Feinmann, Sabrina Fuller, Claire Hignett, Christopher Rainham and Ian Vines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Gladly Beyond<\/em>\n Ten Obstructions embrace the opportunity for experimentation that Rogue\n Project Space offers. The title comes from ee cummings, himself  a \nradical experimenter with form: \u2018somewhere i have never travelled, \ngladly beyond any experience\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gladly Beyond<\/em>\n journeys literally, visually and imaginatively through time and through\n space. It explores the possibilities of visual representation: through \nlight, through simplification of form, or by playing with scale. It \ndelves into the nature of perception, the process of looking, the \nconnections and dialogue between visual representation and the natural \nworld \u2013 capturing a feeling, a pulsing life essence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Journeys\n of the imagination take us from fabled and mythic magical gardens to \nspeculative fictions. We leave behind the constructs and fictions that \njustify existing hierarchies and inequalities – all responding to the \ninexorable march of man-made climate change. <\/p>\n\n\n

In\n November 2019 in response to the gender imbalance in the arts we \norganised and co-curated a hugely successful exhibition of all female \nartists entitled ROGUE WOMEN. This was shown in the large ground floor \nRogue Studios Gallery Space with most female members taking part. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the dialogue surrounding the inequality of women in the arts continues, we have decided to create ROGUE WOMEN 2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\n have a 50% representation of female artists practicing both nationally \nand internationally here at Rogue and the exhibition will showcase the \ntalent of up to 40 of the women members alongside a small number of \nselected guest artists from around the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout\n art history women have been largely invisible, ignored and excluded. \nOur aim is to place women in the spotlight, show solidarity and to \ncontinue the discourse around these issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our guest curator will be Natasha Howes, Senior Curator at Manchester Art Gallery<\/p>\n\n\n

John-Paul Brown explores what it is to communicate in an age plagued with disinformation and polar opinion; how the present day written word and verbal languages are failing to connect, unify, inform and address the climate emergency. A rise in climate-related anxiety is effectively shutting down social capacity to sustain a collective demand for change, and feel optimistic for our futures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embracing a no blame, no shame approach to discussing carbon footprints, he aims to create a safe space for open dialogue and shared learning, juxtaposing global issues such as deforestation, mass migration, permafrost, new energy etc, with notions of self care, resilience, and future affirmations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking inspiration from the ancient visual languages of cave art, and the Rosetta Stone in the age of short-hand emoji chat, he has produced a series of symbols and signifiers to encourage climate curiosity, self education and continued conversation. He explores alternative ways of low-carbon art-making through material choices, utilising non-recyclable materials, and post-art recycling considerations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The show is presented in two acts. Act I offers research and development through a series of installations, climate equations, AI sound, and painting. Act II explores performance and ritual meditation with artists Kelly Jayne Jones, transformation of Act I materials, and regeneration of self.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About John-Paul Brown <\/p>\n\n\n\n

John-Paul Brown (b.1981) graduated with a BA (Hons) in Photography from Blackpool & Fylde College in 2004. His practice ranges from documentary photography and drawing, to large scale installation and social engagement. His work addresses concerns relating to the climate and ecological emergency, non-recyclable materials, urban environments, and low-carbon art-making. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He combines research with personal experience to create layered narratives of social present, exploring the material choices and positive roles artists can play in tackling the climate crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holding Time is an exhibition by Ruth Murray and Linda Hemmersbach. It explores their mutual fascination with the materiality of paint and its ability to evoke places and sensations through colour, surface and touch. Focusing on the relationship between ourselves and the environments we inhabit and through which we move, the exhibition aims to show the many shared avenues that their studio practices have taken. Themes such as landscape, geological matter, deep time, the body and birth, are presented as constellations of memory, consciousness and hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

China, an enigma <\/em>is a new body of work, which began at Red Gate\nGallery in Beijing\u2019s 798 Artzone. The catalyst for its development was an\nInternational Art Residency in 2019, which included the opportunity of living\namongst the local community and experiencing the intensity of China\u2019s capital city.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photography was used as a\nmethod to record personal observations of China, from the banal to the\npeculiar. The work is an exhibition of ceramics, paintings, collage and mixed\nmedia, in response to the residency period in Beijing, but also includes experiences\nprompted by visits to Shanghai, Hangzhou, Huangshan, Jingdezhen and Xi\u2019an City.\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Source material to further\ndevelop ideas, comes from a mixture of collected ephemera from China and the\nUK, with items being acquired from second hand shops, in both countries. The\nwork uses imagery alluding to aspects of Chinese history, culture and contemporary\nlife, but also incorporates British history in an attempt to set up a dialogue,\nwhich teases out comparisons as well as differences between the two countries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An additional layer of\nmeaning communicated is the legacy of the Cultural Revolution, manifestations\nof this ten-year period still exist in China today. Upheaval and turmoil are\ncommon features in our turbulent world\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So many years ago heroes ruled the world
(some died for love in a cruel world)
They were the only ones in a cruel world<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proximity is a collective of 6 artists interested in the spatial and social elements of practice-as-research (established May 2019). Through a series on in-person residencies across the north of England and regular virtual meet-ups, we have developed our approach of \u201cconvivial aesthetics\u201d and provide one another with professional, creative, and emotional support.

During our residency at Rogue Project Space we will continue to explore different ways in which our proximity to each other can create new ideas, ways of thinking, and strategies for making and thinking art.

hi! i\u2019m beznitz.<\/strong>
selected works 2017 – 2020 by Mateusz Beznitz
 
7 – 29 March 2020
preview: Friday 6 March 6 – 9 pm
 
\u201cCreativity brings me a sense of life, sense of what makes me a human and why I am here on this Earth\u201d<\/em>  – Beznitz
 
\u201chi! i\u2019m beznitz.\u201d <\/em>is an exhibition of Mateusz Beznitz\u2019s paintings created from the time of his arrival in the UK in September 2016 up to the present day.
 
This exhibition showcases his large scale paintings as well as a series of over 30 small abstract portraits. Marking a new period of time in his life, all of these works have been created in the UK – most in his current studio at Rogue, and others back in 2017 in his flat.

Beznitz invites you to explore, contemplate, interpret, enjoy or dislike his work. His abstract expressive paintings are rather detached from conscious decision making and reveal intuitive aspects of his humanity, some would say they almost feel like visual poems<\/em>.
 
Beznitz is a European visual artist, painter and sculptor. He studied Fine Art at University of Technology and Humanities in Radom, Poland. Born in 1975 in Starachowice, Poland, Beznitz is currently based in Manchester, United Kingdom.

He is a member and resident of <\/a>Rogue Artists\u2019 Studios & Project Space CIC<\/a>, co-founding member of Europia Art Collective,<\/a> and member of Artists Union England<\/a>.
 
The exhibition has been curated by Karol Kochanowski<\/a>, co-founding member of Europia Art Collective.<\/a>

the experience of history<\/em><\/strong><\/h1>\n

new and recent work by david gledhill<\/strong><\/p>\n

extended until February 24th
<\/strong><\/p>\n

open every Monday, Thursday and Friday 12-5pm.<\/p>\n

(Closed December 21 \u2013 January 6)<\/p>\n

Private View: Friday January 10 6-9pm<\/p>\n

the experience of history<\/em><\/strong> is an exhibition of paintings, films and objects based on and incorporating amateur snapshots acquired from flea markets in Europe during the past 10 years.<\/p>\n

Most of the photographs were taken between 1930 and 1945 and provide a glimpse of a momentous period in modern history, as recorded by citizen photographers.<\/p>\n

The exhibition features four linked projects. \u2018Poland 1940-1941\u2019 is based on an album of photographs probably taken by a German civil administrator posted to Sosnowiec in southern Poland in June 1940. \u2018The Berlin Olympic Village Project\u2019 features paintings based on amateur snapshots of the Olympic Village during the Games in 1936, together with paintings and films that depict the Village as it appeared in 2016. \u2018Karel<\/em>\/Karl\u2019 includes paintings based on photographs from a box of personal effects that belonged to an ethnic German carpenter from Czechoslovakia, together with assemblages that combine furniture and suitcases with documents from the box. \u2018Ruth Finger\u2019 is based on a small wallet of personal photographs taken in Germany during the 1940s.<\/p>\n

Timed to coincide with the 80th<\/sup> anniversary of the start of the Second World War and at a turning point in British history, the exhibition shows how previously tolerant populations can be persuaded to identify with extremist ideologies through a process of indoctrination, scapegoating and pageantry.<\/p>\n

Rogue Women<\/em><\/h1>\n

16 November – 1 December 2019<\/h2>\n

Private View: Friday 15 November 6 – 9pm<\/h3>\n

Rogue: <\/strong>Behaving in ways that are not expected or not normal.<\/em><\/p>\n

Subversive<\/strong>: seeking or intended to subvert an established system or institution.<\/em><\/p>\n

Solidarity: <\/strong>unity or agreement of feeling or action, especially among individuals with a common interest; mutual support within a group.<\/em><\/p>\n

Why are so many female artists airbrushed from history?<\/p>\n

Why is there gender inequality in the art world?<\/p>\n

What does it mean to be a woman in Art?<\/p>\n

Throughout art history women have been largely invisible, ignored and excluded from the dialogue.<\/p>\n

We have decided to respond to the discourse around the gender imbalance in the arts by having an all female artists exhibition entitled \u2018ROGUE WOMEN\u2019<\/p>\n

This brings together and celebrates the work of 40 women artists from Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield and London and includes young emerging artists alongside established international artists working in varied disciplines.<\/p>\n

The aim is to put women in the spotlight and show solidarity with women artists everywhere. Our guest curator is Ann Bukantas, Curator and Head of Fine Art at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool.<\/p>\n

WHY BE EXOTIC IN PRIVATE? JENNY STEELE <\/strong><\/p>\n

Rogue<\/span> Project Space

Manchester

Opening event: Saturday 8th June, 2-5pm, all welcome
Open 9th- 29th June, Thursdays and Saturdays 12- 5pm and available to view by appointment (contact: jennysteelestudio@gmail.com<\/a>)
Closing event: Saturday 29th June 12-5pm<\/p>\n

\u2018Why Be Exotic In Private? is a solo installation by artist Jenny Steele<\/a>, which is the result of her research into South Beach Miami\u2019s 1930\u2019s \u2018Seaside Moderne\u2019 architecture which was inspired by the long sweeping streamlined curves and details of ocean liners and the International Modernist style. In addition to recording the formal and decorative elements of the buildings, Steele explored the social history of the largest area of coastal art deco architecture built internationally. The installation was Steele\u2019s first solo exhibition in London at The Foundry Gallery, Chelsea from December 2018 \u2013 March 2019, and is at Rogue<\/span> Project Space, Manchester until June 29th.<\/p>\n
