A MANIFESTO FOR THE BOOK

At 187 pages long, you'll be sitting at your computer screen for a while, but this project from the University of West England's Book Arts Research department helps to question the place of the book in contemporary art practice.

Please see below for forthcoming projects.

VISUAL PARADIGMS

Visual Paradigms is a online, open source project for visual artists exploring the links between contemporary art practice and art writing run by [Details on Request].

The exhibition will be exploring ideas between communication, personal reactions to art and the complexities of interpreting language through a reworking of the surrealist game of the Exquisite Corpse.

Seven writers have been invited to produce a piece of writing about seven different images chosen by the curators; in turn, artists are now invited to submit original works to the project that they believe reflect or are inspired by thetexts.

Works from all mediums will be accepted whether it be painting, sculpture, performance, video, audio or other. See T&C for information on how to submit work.

For more information please see the Visual Paradigms website.
