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!

    • Its a few years ago now, but I organised my end of year prom (for year 13) at Off the Cuff in Herne Hill - was on the cheaper side to rent and at that age, felt very cool and clubby. I had my own 18th at Whirled Cinema in Loughborough Junction but I'm not sure if they take event bookings like that anymore 
    • You are right . It isn't going to change him for the better. Sending such a negative message is potentially counter-productive. Trump is narcissistic, arrogant, unpredictable, spiteful, divisive, and dishonest, with a penchant for a total a disregard for democratic norms.  He is one who bears a grudge so there's a case to be made for not offending him as he could react with a bunch of  adverse actions  such as  deciding to increase import tariffs on UK exports to the US.      
    • Unless we don't fly I don't think we can be too critical of the authorities.  
    • In 2016 London City Airport began using concentrated flight paths. When there's a predominantly westerly wind, incoming aircraft approach from East London (north of the River). When there's a predominantly Easterly wind, incoming aircraft approach the airport from the West: circling through Forest Hill, Dulwich, Vauxhall, Tower Hamlets, Docklands. This latter flight path affects many of us in South East London. https://www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-london-assembly-does/questions-mayor/find-an-answer/london-city-airport-concentrated-flight-paths The planes going into City are often below 2,000 ft, so very noisy. Sometimes we have incoming Heathrow at the same time, flying higher. The early flights that I hear e.g. 04:30 are incoming to Heathrow. They are scheduled to land at 05:30 but are 'early'. Apparently the government allows a percentage of flights to arrive early and late (but these are now established as regular occurrences, informally part of the schedule). IMHO Londoners are getting very poor political representation on this issue. Incredible that if you want to complain about aircraft noise, you're supposed to contact the airport concerned! Preposterous and designed solely in favour of aviation expansion.
