SUMMARY:Tim Noble & Sue Webster: Love and Hate at Firstsite
DESCRIPTION:Noble & Webster have created a remarkable group of anti-monuments in their 24-year career\, mixing the strategies of modern sculpture and the attitude of punk to make art from anti-art. \nTheir work derives much of its power from its fusion of opposites\, form and anti-form\, high culture and anti-culture\, male and female\, craft and rubbish\, sex and violence. \nIn this presentation\, eight light sculptures by Noble & Webster illuminate areas of the Firstsite building with pops of glimmering colour. \nThis series of light sculptures reference iconic pop culture symbols represented in the form of shop-front-type signage and carnival shows inherent of British seaside towns\, Las Vegas and Times Square. With the aid of complex light sequencing these signs perpetually flash and spiral out messages of everlasting love\, and hate. \nPlease note\, that this exhibition contains works including flashing lights and contrasting colours across the building. For further information please speak to a member of staff. \n  \nAbout Tim Noble & Sue Webster \nIn 2009\, Noble & Webster were awarded Honorary Degrees of Doctor of Art at Nottingham Trent University in recognition of their contribution to contemporary British Art and their radical influence on younger generations of artists. In 2007\, they were awarded the ARKEN Prize at Arken\, Museum of Modern Art\, Copenhagen for outstanding contribution to the international scene of contemporary art\, in the same year their critically acclaimed project Polymorphous Perverse at the Freud Museum was nominated for the prestigious South Bank Prize. \nSince their first solo show in London\, British Rubbish in 1996\, Noble & Webster have enjoyed international recognition with solo exhibitions at Rockefeller Plaza\, New York\, 2008\, The Freud Museum\, London\, 2006\, CAC Malaga\, 2005\, Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, 2004\, P.S.1/MoMA\, New York\, 2003\, Milton Keynes Gallery\, UK\, 2002\, Deste Foundation\, Athens\, 2000 and The Chisenhale Gallery\, London\, 1999. Their work was included in Statuephilia—Contemporary Sculptors at The British Museum\, London in 2008–09 and in the exhibition Apocalypse—Beauty and Horror in Contemporary Art\, at The Royal Academy\, London\, 2000. \nTheir work is in the permanent collections of the AISTHI Foundation\, Beirut; Arken Museum of Modern Art\, Copenhagen; Art Gallery of South Australia\, Adelaide; Artis-François Pinault\, France; Berengo Studio\, Venice; The British Museum\, London; Dakis Joannou Collection\, Athens; Es Baluard Museum\, Palma\, Spain; The Goss-Michael Collection\, Dallas; Honart Museum\, Tehran\, Iran; Lyonel-Feininger Museum\, Quedlinburg\, Germay; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Denver; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Los Angeles; National Portrait Gallery\, London; Nicola Erni Collection\, Zug\, Switzerland; The Olbricht Collection\, Berlin; Project Space 176–The Zabludowicz Collection\, London; Saatchi Collection\, London; Samsung Museum\, Seoul\, Korea; Solomon R.

SUMMARY:Women's Sacred Drum Circle
DESCRIPTION:In our Sacred Drum Circles\, we unite in a circle—a symbol of wholeness and unity. The drum\, one of the oldest instruments known to humanity\, guides us on a journey of self-expression and connection. Through the steady beat of the drum\, we enter a meditative and healing space where each woman is honoured and heard. \nWe hold these circles with deep reverence for the ancient wisdom passed down by our ancestors\, creating a sacred container that allows for growth\, empowerment\, and healing. \nAt the heart of our drum circles is the powerful energy of sisterhood. In this space\, we are committed to uplifting\, supporting\, and empowering one another. Through laughter\, shared experiences\, and the rhythm of the drums\, we create bonds that transcend the every day and help each woman feel seen\, valued\, and supported. \nNo previous drumming experience is needed—whether you are new to drumming or a seasoned drummer\, every woman is welcome. We drum to heal ourselves\, to empower our spirits\, and to remind one another of the strength and beauty we all carry. \nPlease bring your own drum or musical instrument\, I will have spares if you do not own one. \nLove\, Claire \nWhenSunday 21st SeptemberSunday 12th OctoberSunday 21st December \nTime16.15 – 18.15 \nWhereThe Tree Room\, Trinity Street\, Colchester\, Essex.  \nInvestment£15.00 per person \nhttps://dharmabelle.co.uk/womens-sacred-drum-circles/ \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/719444434002913/?event_time_id=719444444002912
