Hi There,


I'm currently studying Art and Design and getting ready for my major show at the end of the summer. I've heard quite a lot about the Dulwich Outdoor Gallery recently and have just come back from the Westminster Reference Gallery and read Ingrid Beazley's book on the project. As my aspirations for my project mirror some of those created during the event I was wondering if anyone would care to share any tips on how I can go about finding wall space in an around the London Borough's. I'm attempting to engage with local communities through my art work and street art work and public spaces seems like an interesting avenue to explore. Any helpful tips would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks


Daniel

The author of the book posts on here as IngridB so I'd suggest you drop her a private message and see if she can help you.


Have to say I love the street art around here, especially the ones by Stik. It's not at East London levels in terms of the quantity of street art, but the quality is high.


Good luck with your project.

I have wall space but it's on a wall on my house! Happy to "donate" the space!


I wonder if the council could help you identify spaces? There's lots of "wall space" around deptford (creek road, where all the artists rent space ) near the Laban dance building.


I have the book you mention and have really enjoyed reading it.


Good luck with your project.

Thanks Hazel,


That would be fantastic, i'd really appreciate that. I can send you a copy of my proposal outlining the aims of my project and if it is something that is still of interest perhaps we can talk further. If anyone else is also interested please feel free to let me know.


I'll be sure to check out the spaces you mention and thanks for your help. I agree, the book is amazing, really well put together and really interesting and inspiring!

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
