Peter Liversidge – Flags for Edinburgh, 2013



Peter Liversidge – Flags for Edinburgh, 2013
Edinburgh Art Festival
1 August – 1 September 2013
Peter Liversidge made a proposal for the Edinburgh Art Festival 2013, inviting anyone in the city with a flag pole to fly a white flag which bears the text: HELLO.
In a city which doubles in size in August, Liversidge's proposal invites Edinburgh to join in a collective and universal greeting. In the artist's own words, a "simple welcome across the roof tops, a buoyant, floating 'Hello'"
from the website of the Edinburgh Art Festval:

The 'HELLO' flag was also part of an edition by Peter Liversidge, published in an edition of 25 + V copies by The Flag Club and Peter Foolen Editions in 2012. There are still a few copies of this edition (a box with this flag, a numbered and signed polaroid photograph and publication Proposals for the Flag Club, membership card and a set of letterpress printed postcards) available from Peter Foolen Editions, see:

Part of the series Museum Restaurant dinner series

First in the Museum Restaurant dinner series, Tate collaborates with London-based artist Peter Liversidge for this exciting public event. In line with Peter’s diverse practice, which invites the audience to question what is possible and where humour often plays a key role, this event starts with a proposal for the dinner. Guests join the artist in enjoying a menu of specially selected recipes across four generations of his family with food from loyal suppliers in Lincolnshire, Turkey, Tower Hamlets in London and Essex amongst others. Peter is closely collaborating with Tate’s chefs in preparing and serving this bespoke three-course meal including home-made lemonade and mint tea.
As a guest, you are participating in a realisation of a proposal, the meal and surrounding guests. A copy of the proposal as a certificate of the piece is given to each of the guests to take home. The evening will also include a personal selection of musical tracks and shared stories from the origin of each recipe.

18.30 Private view of Meschac Gaba’s Museum of Contemporary African Art
19.30 Come on over – Dinner in Starr Auditorium Foyer, Level 1
22.00 Conclusion 

The dinner consists of at least three courses. A vegetarian option is available. Please advise/select on booking. Menus will be available on the exhibition website three weeks prior to each event.
This event is related to the exhibition Meschac Gaba: Museum of Contemporary African Art

Time, the deer, is in the wood of Hallaig



Time, the deer, is in the wood of Hallaig
6-11 June 2013
The Belfry Art Gallery
St John on Bethnal Green
200 Cambridge Heath Road
E2 9PA London

Curated by Amy Cutler.
This exhibition investigates the properties of forest memory through text, archive, and ‘xylarium’, or wood collection. Between the French horticultural term “forest trauma” and Robert Pogue Harrison’s “forests of nostalgia”, a whole discipline around history, witnessing, and the memorial qualities of woodland opens up.  Art works examining the cultural expression of time and history in the forest are placed here alongside archival photographs, small press texts, artefacts, and museum objects, in an old, low-lit belfry designed by Sir John Soane.
A candle-lit collection on forests, memory, and social and natural history ● Cabinets of book works, wood works, paintings, drawings, prints, film projection, and music ● Wood specimens and photographs from Kew’s Museum of Economic Botany, English Heritage, the Epping Forest archive, the London Metropolitan Archives, and local collectors ● Tree ring slices and materials from dendrochronology labs ● Installations and one-off editions from forty artists, including Colin Sackett, Chris Drury, Bryan Nash Gill, Richard Skelton, herman de vries, Katsutoshi Yuasa, Stefka Mueller, Alec Finlay, Tony Lopez, Willem Sanders and Amy Todman.
Peter Foolen Editions supplied books and works for this exhibition by herman de vries, Willem Sanders, Chris Drury, Oooms and Paul van Dijk.
