Materials from the Garden

AN EXHIBITION with work from PENNY HALLAS and ALLEN FISHER 

@tactileBOSCH

Cardiff 10th to 30th September

In the midst of environmental, political and public health emergencies, Penny Hallas and Allen Fisher look to the garden, the allotment and the wider landscape for ways of thinking about their own place and the place of others in a world leaning towards disaster. Discomfort and anxiety are a part of it, but so are glimpses of paradise. Through drawing, installation, projection and performance they bring messages from the Garden to the commercial urban centre of Cardiff. 

tactileBOSCH, Capitol Centre, Queen Street, Cardiff, CF10 2HQ

Open Wednesday to Saturday, 10th – 30th Sept.

10th September 2 – 5pm – see the show and chat with Penny. 6-8pm – Opening event

Mae anghysur a phryder yn cyfrannu iddo, ond hefyd yw’r cipolwg ar baradwys. Trwy luniadu, gorseddau, taflunio a pherfformiad maent yn dod â negeseuon o’r Ardd i ganolfan drefol fasnachol Caerdydd.

Allen Fisher’s work

at Without Borders, formerly at the Elysium gallery, Swansea City Centre

At the end of the Elysium exhibition, the pages were bound together to make a book and taken to the next venue, to be taken apart, displayed, and then reassembled before moving again to its next location.

The exhibition will travel to Japan, Norway, USA, Venice, Canada, and back to Wales. The project will also be globally accessible via an e-catalogue.

The work is currently, January 2022, at Art Spot Korn in Kyoto

At the end of the tour, the artworks will permanently be bound together to create one unique artist book, to be housed in a special collection’s library which will be announced at a later date.

Curated by Jonathan Powell, elysium gallery Director and Heather Parnell, co-editor of 1SSUE artist books. The project salutes the diversity of creativity, showcasing the work of all participating artists democratically, in a format that is portable and accessible. The ‘Artists Book’ serves as the vessel and sets the parameters into the exploration of the notion of Borders.
