Nuart 2011
So, it’s that time of year again! I’m off for the 6th time to Nuart 2011, this year sees a great line up of friends old and NU. The location is the beer halls at Tou Scene. An old and favorite location in Stavanger. The show opens on the 1st of October, with a wild night of dubstep from Hyperdub in the machine room next door it promises to be an outstanding opening night party. Details of who’s playing at numusic.no
My show production starts from the 18th, although there has been folk who have been hard at it for a long time already! I will of course update here, my take on the proceedings.
This year we release a book Eloquent Vandals with the history of the festival in glorious print, put together by back bone of the festival Victoria & marte (sounds like a song by the fall). Anyhow it will be released at the launch party in the gallery on the last weekend of the show (end of October). Although i am not on the official line up i am sure there will be some Dotmasters stuff up on the streets of Stavanger this year.
apologie
You may have noticed that picture posts are somewhat random rotation, posting stuff from a field from a blackberry. An element of partying, hard work and late nights finds me unable to remember the weird angle this phone assumes is the bottom and top. Anyhow a somewhat wet event has made the going underfoot heavy to bogey. Old boney’s a hit and all goes well with the unfairground.

All things FB
Suppose it is inevitable, and i am probably too late, but there is now a facebook page for all things Dotmasters. Held out a long time until i didn’t know what i was holding out for. Long gone are the days when Facebook was the evil interloper into cyber space (jeez! do you remember cyber space?) . Well suppose you either like it or unlike it. Pervasive as it is, it’s still a good way of getting a message out i suppose. You can check it out here
Katsu
If your going to do a graffiti show then expect some body to hit up your gallery wall. Kastu shows us how its done, I remember being chased off the Baltic during the spank the monkey show….should of used an extinguisher

So…Here’s your first chance to watch “Eloquent Vandals” the film about the Nuart’s festival 2008. Half an hour long and made with a hell of allot of good will. Its not a bad snapshot of what happens at Nuart (if you ignore the horrid lies that i break our artists noses). Any how you can watch it Monday January 31st at 10.00 GMT at the brooklynite gallery site. The film was directed and shot and lit by Martin Hawkes with myself conducting all the interviews and doing the sound . There is a fantastic soundtrack by Nick smith and the whole thing was put together at Saft films under the watchful eye of Mr Nuart himself Martyn Reed. Its worth a look and features footage of Nuart 2007 plus in depth interviews and a general look and feel at what we do at Nuart. There are lots of free give aways available on the day so turn on, tune in, and Get up!
