Edwin Pickstone’s work is AMAZING — playing with the restrictions & purposes of print & form, how language can be shaped. Really inspiring. The AirSpace Print Room has been officially activated: you can now use the excellent resources & receive a loyalty card🖤

Thanks for visiting Laura! Loved having you here for a few of our #publicyoume events

[Laura Robertson 👻 @doublenegativeL]

Wonderful visit @AirSpaceGallery #publicyoume. Letterpress expert @GSofA, Edwin Pickstone, taught us how to use the Adana Presses to print our own celebration & declamation cards🚩mine read ‘COURAGE BOLDNESS AND REBELLION’ (taken from the Futurist manifesto, spot the typo)...

Boat in which migrants died displayed at @la_Biennale @guardianart - but is this an act of commemoration or simply using an artifact from a tragedy as a spectacle? I hope visitors view the bigger picture https://t.co/r9tFZRRf0C

A few words on Harley Kuyck-Cohen's grad residency show @AirSpaceGallery "Rather than being a clean-cut, ready-made show-room for 'pre-fabs,' Allotment is more of a show-room for the vernacular – for what's actually happening beneath the corporate veneer" https://t.co/sQfrWCku2i

Thank you to everybody who took part in #PagesOfTheSea today. Together, on beaches across the UK, we said a collective goodbye to those who left our shores during #WW1. https://t.co/R7K2JxYqSa

Fantastic image of Cornelia Parker's Thirty Pieces of Silver in the making - part of her talk @ArtsKeele today - also poignant to reflect on her more recent use of poppy negatives in War Room @WhitworthArt

REVIEW: The delivery of Anni Albers’ retrospective at @Tate Modern not only identifies her as a pioneering influence on 20th century design but it also reflects the gallery’s move to increase its representation of women artists @thisistomorrow_ https://t.co/1u5ef8DlAV

Still I Rise is the new exhibition at @Nottm_Contemp - it offers up new ways of presenting and producing art. I review @guardian https://t.co/vtT08gSpEI

“From childhood we understand that sand marks time. First There is a Mountain builds upon this concept, making us aware of mountain rocks’ erosion over millennia, rock shifting across earth.. forming unique fingerprints of sand across our modern coastline" 🌍🙌 Katie Paterson
