Participating Artists: Paul Caporn & Kate Gregory.
Venue:
Heathcote Museum & Gallery,
Swan House, Heathcote Cultural Centre, 58-60 Duncraig Road, Applecross.
Description: For Tilt 2010 Paul Caporn will be dealing with the relationship between history museums and art galleries.
This will be driven through a collaborative process between Caporn and Dr Kate Gregory, historian from the National Trust. The collaboration between an artist and historian will enable archival voices to be unearthed for inspiration.
By mining the archive and drawing out elements of the history of the site through the installation, the project will be grounded in a relationship between the present and the past. The work will interpret aspects of the history of the site bringing a new reading of the past to Heathcote Gallery and Museum.
Tilt is an initiative by the City of Melville where one artist each year is invited to showcase their talents by exploring an aspect of Heathcote's multi-layered history, using their chosen art medium or a new exploratory medium.
Opening night 19 November at 6pm. To attend please RSVP to 9364 5666.
Dates: 20 November 2010 to 19 December 2010.
Opening Times: Tuesday - Friday 10-3pm; Saturday - Sunday 11-3pm.
