A TURNING POINT / UNCERTAIN STATES 12


Uncertain States issue 12 is fresh, free and available now. The latest edition is as good as ever and the group is showing a selection of last year's contributors at Espacio Gallery 159 Bethnal Green Road until next week. Amazing space and experience guaranteed. Also, I have been invited to write about our 2012pics platform on page 3. Short notice but words came easy and so did the team who managed to execute the production in a blink of an eye. I am very grateful to the Uncertain States collective to have given me the opportunity to explain and present what our platform is to a wider audience, and on a different format, especially as the release coincides perfectly with the East London Photomonth Festival.

HOX'S END


This last week-end of September 2012 marks the departure of our first official collective show from the Hoxton hotel in Shoreditch. I am very proud that this project has been selected amongst other very serious contenders. Besides the venue decided to extend the show for an extra three weeks. The response from the artists has been amazing and the experience with the staff truly exceptional. We are now working on new possibilities by considering new angles from the large archives we have produced. Many thanks to everyone for your support and visits.

THE GREAT LEAP SIDEWAYS

You will find an enriching interview from Chris Dorley-Brown with The Great Leap Sideways online magazine. Chris talks about his 30 years career so far, the East End and life.

FLIP & GAMES


Interesting issue 22 of the London Independent Photography magazine (FLIP) especially dedicated to the 2012 Games and the notion of game (as practice and leisure)
8 pages cover the work of Homer Sykes about one of his latest work titled Before the Blue Wall
Also a double page with Chris Dorley-Brown Roach Road which is being shown at the Hox gallery.
Finally there is a review of the Art of Dissent book with the usual suspects mentioned in earlier post.
I found my copy from the Photographers Gallery and it costs £4.

UNCERTAIN STATES / 11


You will find an article commenting on the Salon des refuses' selection for the Art of Dissent book project (recent post - scroll down) held last Autumn at the Container Cafe by the Olympic stadium. Alessandra Chila, Chris Dorley-Brown, David George and Peter Marshall works are being summarily described by author Ben Campkin. Adjacent is a full page with George's Dissolution series with statement. Uncertain States paper is truly a magnificent project for alternative photography which I  recommend strongly. This issue is Phototheraphy orientated. I got my copy from the Flowers Gallery on Kingsland Rd, Hoxton and it's free. Enjoy.
