Work Selected for Parallel Lines: Drawing and Sculpture

This exhibition will explore how artists have used line in both drawing and sculpture. Guest Curator Caroline Worthington (Director, Royal Society of Sculptors) will use twentieth century sculptures from The Ingram Collection placed alongside contemporary drawings from the members of the Royal Society of Sculptors (RSS). The RSS is based at Dora House, South Kensington and is an artist led, membership organisation. They lead the conversation about sculpture today through exhibitions and events for all.

We are delighted to announce that the following pieces have been selected for consideration:

Body Obsessed World:

How do I perceive my own body?

The mirror is at the heart of our relationship with our own bodies. These sculpture use mirrors to project the illusion of self. 

At the heart how society perceives physical beauty, is how we perceive ourselves. Society’s flaws begin with the self.

From these holographic bronze sculptures, we can explore the fake impressions we create of ourselves.

 

The Hurwitz Singularity:

“The technological singularity” is a future time speculated in science fiction. At the singularity moment, a human made machine will design a machine more advanced than itself. This moment will mark the end of mankind’s dominance.

The singularity is the moment that machines become more intelligent than us. Some analysts expect the singularity to occur some time in the 21st century, although their estimates vary -Wikipedia.

Talk At The Centre For The History And Philosophy Of Physics

Throughout the ages physics has sought to explain the nature of matter both on Earth and in the heavens. Millennia ago, the Greek philosophers posited the existence of atoms, thereby launching a journey through the centuries, which in due course confirmed their existence and have made them tools of our everyday life.

Saturday 23rd February 2019 10.30 am – 5.00 pm

St Cross College, University of Oxford – Martin Wood Lecture Theatre, Department of Physics

Throughout the ages physics has sought to explain the nature of matter both on Earth and in the heavens. Millennia ago, the Greek philosophers posited the existence of atoms, thereby launching a journey through the centuries, which in due course confirmed their existence and have made them tools of our everyday life. More recently, modern thought combined the theories of relativity and quantum mechanics leading to an understanding of matter now encoded in the Standard Model. This progress has led to startling new applications in fields such as nanotechnology and genomics. This conference will trace the progress of thought from the speculations of the ancients to the reality of the modern day.

 

Registration to attend this conference is free, but must be confirmed using the Conference booking form by midday on Friday 15th February 2019.

There will be a conference dinner at St Cross in the evening following the end of the conference with an after-dinner talk by Jonty Hurwitz (nano sculptor and engineer) on his construction of the smallest human form ever created using nanotechnology.

A Geometric Look At 3D Illusionist Techniques

ICGG 2018 – Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Geometry and Graphics

Madalena R. Grimaldi

Daniel W. L. Rodrigues

The work of Jonty Hurwitz is covered in the paper as the authors present a brief description of the ideas of scholars and artists, who sought to systematise the laws of Perspective, and compare them with the breakthroughs made in recent times. In this comparison, it is given special attention to the compositions that invite those who attend their exhibitions not to merely watch scenarios but also interact with them and experience an anamorphic immersion in a kind of a magical world.

The article includes several photos, which were personally taken in places where the positioning of planes allows the observers to complete an image, provided it is observed in accordance with a certain point of view.

Under certain circumstances, the visitors can even be included into the scenographic set, acting as extra characters in the 3D simulation. The authors highlight the creativity some street artists employed in designing their murals, and analyse the procedures taken and described by them to display their works to an audience composed of visual effects addicts. Some excerpts of interviews, when the artists provide information on their working methods and show their enthusiasm for the several possibilities of creating new plastic scenes, are a vivid example of the integration between Geometry and Art.

April 2017 at ArtCatto Gallery, Luille

Artcatto is the brainchild of Gillian Catto, who after 30 successful years as the owner of an internationally recognised and respected Gallery in London, decided to settle in the Algarve.

Gillian Catto developed a reputation, which is second to none. She was responsible for launching the careers of artists who have subsequently become household names, such as Jack Vettriano. His solo exhibition at her Gallery helped to create a global demand for his work, which skyrocketed in value virtually overnight.

Show Opening 27 April, 7pm. Arctatte Loule, Portugal

Gillian Catto developed a reputation, which is second to none. She was responsible for launching the careers of artists who have subsequently become household names, such as Jack Vettriano. His solo exhibition at her Gallery helped to create a global demand for his work, which skyrocketed in value virtually overnight.

There are many artists who owe a debt of gratitude to Gillian, whose gallery became a byword for quality artwork. The gallery’s success had a lot to do with her personal style. The gallery was a haven for an eclectic and interesting group of people who would gather to see the latest exhibition on show.

Childhood

Edition of 21

I look back on my own childhood and marvel at how the line between imagination and reality was so blurred. Somehow I needed to try and capture that complex relationship in this artwork. Can you still see the imaginary with your own eyes? Can you still believe in the existence of daydreams nurtured in your own mind? At what point did you accept reality as what you see? This sculpture explores the relationship between fantasy and reality in the mind of a child.

From droplets on a spider web to a spiral galaxy: Stunning photos reveal the natural beauty in science

A set of stunning photographs that reveal the natural beauty in science are set to go on show to the public.

The 100 incredible images are the shortlisted entries for the Royal Photographic Society's International Images for Science competition and highlight how important photography is for academics.

The show includes a photo of one of the smallest 3D sculptures ever made, a surfing girl that measures just 150 micrometres tall, taken by Stefan Diller.  The sculpture was made by nano-artist Jonty Hurwitz using a 3D printing technique called multiphoton lithography which tightens polymer resin with infrared light one 3D pixel at a time.

A European project called Nanorestart is turning to nanotechnology to find novel ways to preserve modern works of art, explains Carolien Coon.

Nanotechnology Cleans Up.

A European project called Nanorestart is turning to nanotechnology to find novel ways to preserve modern works of art, explains Carolien Coon.

These are just a few examples of the rapid technological progress occurring in modern heritage science, which often feels like a game of cat and mouse when trying to keep up with artists constantly at the forefront of experimentation. Some artists are even creating nano-art directly. Jonty Hurwitz, for example, uses two-photon lithography to print sculptures on the nanoscale. These sculptures perfectly illus- trate what conservators might have to deal with in the future as art and science enjoy increasingly close connections.
