When the City Speaks: The City is a Stage
… |
Concept
Artists will become the flaneur - city walkers
for the day - using the urban space as a stage and the
psycho-geographic setting to create art derived and
inspired by it.
Context
To create artefacts of what they have seen, found and
experienced and memorised on the day of the walk. The
situation will be an impromptu one, so the work made
on the day will formed from the urban exploration.
Objective
The focus will be the city as a hybrid culture and the
artists to examine its sub-cultures, such as the graffiti
artists, tattoo artists, city icons and whatever is
considered as an underground scene, the banal everyday
things that often goes unnoticed and more; utilising
the visual language and symbolism in the city space.
Outcome
The cultural examinations by each artist will then be
represented through a chosen mode of expression and
media on sections of paper to convey their experiences.
This could be through text, painting, drawing, collage,
photography, etc..
Programme
This programme will run in three cities, starting with
Liverpool (UK) in June 2007 moving to London (UK) and
then Paris (France).
Liverpool, June 2007.
London, July 2007.
Paris, August 2007.

Saturday
30 June 2007 artists from all around participated in
‘When the City Speaks – The City is a Stage’.
Everyone met at the Fact Centre, Liverpool, England
in the morning and their ventured out into the city
to explore art in an urban context. The Curator, Jo
Derbyshire, describes the days events:
‘Artists
from around Liverpool and the surrounding districts
came to contribute to the project. This was an open
submission and artists from a range of contemporary
art practices turned to up to engage in a Situationist
initiative’.
Derbyshire
further explains the objectives of the overall project:
‘When the City Speak’ comes from a series
of previous projects of art in the urban space. This
new direction is subthemed ‘The City is a Stage’.
It uses the landscape and invites people to become a
flaneur, a city walker, observing the banal and everyday
interactions’.
‘Due
to the alternative nature of the space explored and
removed from the conventional concepts of a studio or
gallery, the spontaneous nature of urban space with
a fusion of activities all on the go, the project becomes
more one of the concept and experience rather than the
end piece produced by each artist. Similar, the art
becomes a residue itself and an annotation of the artists
experience in this research project of urban space’.
Writers,
visual artists, musician and members of the public participated
in the project. From the initial day of the ‘flaneur’
experience and collating research on the theme, the
artists then had another twenty-four hours to finalise
and finish their final piece.
The
next stage of this programme is London in July 2007
and then Paris for August 2007.
An
exhibition of the Liverpool collection of art produced
will be from 10th August 2007 - 22nd August 2007 at
the South Bohemia Gallery, Smithdown Road, Liverpool,
England (http://www.freewebs.com/southbag).

you are interested in contributing to the next stage
in London email Derbyshire at aprilskies1204@aol.com.

When
the City Speaks to Jo Derbyshire.
Written by Lucia Andrea Sweeney.
08 August 2007.
‘When the City Speaks’ has been a cultural
research programme explored by Jo Derbyshire from her
earlier and independent practice as an artist through
to opening it up curatorial to other practitioners.
The impetus has been to creatively explore the concepts
of art in the constructs of the urban space and particularly
alternative spaces of the pubic realm and readdress
through a gallery context.
The
current development in this programme is ‘When
the City Speaks: The City is a Stage’ and founded
on artistic research in the city environment and consider
in terms of the flaneur (The term "Flâneur"
comes from the French verb flâner, which means
"to stroll". A flâneur is thus a person
who walks the city in order to experience it).
The
initial stage was set in Liverpool (UK), where a collective
of artists entered the city and responded accordingly
with their creative insight from which each derives
a piece of art. This work will be shown as a large installation
across the walls of the South Bohemia Gallery (Liverpool,
England), each section interlinking to convey the lineage
of experience from one place to another and reflect
visual dialogue, signs and semiotics of media and urban
cultural annotation we encounter.
Derbyshire
explains in an interview with Lucia Andrea Sweeney more
the purpose and structure of this curatorial intiative
from the onset of her own art to the broader insight
of the shared creative expeirence it has evolved:
Sweeney:
The upcoming exhibition of 'When the City Speaks
- The City is a State' is a programmed for three cities
and launches with art produced on the theme of Liverpool
from local and international artists. Can you explain
the concept behind this brief?
Derbyshire:
I chose the three cities Liverpool, London and Paris
for the personal connections to me, but each are cultural
beds of a hive activity. Although random, all have an
interesting history in arts and culture. ‘When
the City Speaks’ is forms part of my research
into urban culture and hybridity. I use the city environment
as a stage for people to explore, take in and utilise
in their work.
Sweeney:
What has been response and level of art produced
by the artists who have contributed to this project?
Derbyshire:
It has been a good response. It is funny, as a lot of
people are choosing to take photographs and paint and
collage over the photographs. So, it will be an interesting
turn out. The artists have chosen different methods,
but the fundamental is the creative experience and not
so much as the object of art as the end product, but
some have chosen a more spontaneous approach, while
others have initiated final produced art piece. This
will be an interesting turn out, because there are similarities
in how some have expressed there outcomes and others
different.
Sweeney:
You are both Curator to this project and Artist
too. How do the roles differentiate to the objectives
of cultural dialogue?
Derbyshire:
I cant really separate the two as the project came from
an inherent thing. Something that has been in my mind
to do for the last ten years. Its like the cities I
visited did really speak to me and I re-interpreted
this as an artists in a kind of chaotic way using a
collage of photographs, household paint, city scapes
and more. As a Curator, I used narrative and research
to achieve this. It was going on all at the same time
so hard to separate for me.
Sweeney:
What work have you produced and what has been the creative
process to encapsulate your own artistic interpretation
to art in or derived from the urban space?
Derbyshire:
I have produced an array of art around the subject of
urban space. These have ranged from large abstracts
of mixed media paints on canvas to denote sense of fusion,
transition and hybridisation a city space can convey
to the senses and on a similar ethos take these concepts
and express through live art project that have similarly
allowed other participants to contribute in the creativity.
Sweeney:
You consider the term 'flaneur'. Can you explain how
the term has been researched and embodied in your work
and that of other artists?
Derbyshire:
I also consider the situationism but in post-modern
terms and what that means today. Particularly, Liverpool
is the changing urban environment and how the buildings
are making people react. I have noticed in a lot of
the work that people are more attracted to the old buildings,
sub cultures like that within Quiggins, graffiti and
fly posters. Something not conducive with the public
image of new buildings, Capital of Culture and regeneration,
and more, but I suppose if this is considered as a culture
it is an homogenised version of something the artist
don’t consider worthy or worth mentioning about
Sweeney:
Liverpool in particular has been in a transition
with the regeneration and lead up to the European Capital
of Culture 2008. Have these changes influenced your
own insight as Curator and Artist? If so, how? Does
this current creative initiative align to these, whether
inspired or reactionary?
Derbyshire:
I have discovered something interesting and the focus
has been on the old, the established and the hidden
rather than the new. Perhaps this is because the old
is revered, known and understood. I think there is a
lot of resilience and resistance to the new as there
are areas of Liverpool becoming the forgotten town whilst
the wealthy move in with disregard to people’s
history or community. I am not fully against change.
I think Liverpool is looking a lot better with some
redevelopment but if a councillor suddenly moves into
a city apartment whose builders they voted in favour
of at a planning meeting, I’d be asking for an
enquiry.
Its
probably happened in the area I grew up in where a build
firm kind of won the rights to build irrespective of
the show the building will cast and views the high rise
block, but again the wealth derived has something to
do with this the individual can be forgotten when economics
come into the equation so can our social and cultural
history – it’s a bit like the 60’s
and 70’s revisited. On the other handm I do like
the changing skyline and Liverpool is moving with the
times a bit I just think a bit rapidly and without much
thought.
In
brief, Culture Company, well no surprises there, you
cant create culture and art it exists any way on many
levels and with money or not it will continue. The Tate
is brilliant we have one in the city and the Turner
Prize coming up, so that is positive. Emin and Blake
feature in my collage and are very much becoming iconic
figures of Liverpool.
Sweeney:
The next research projects and exhibitions are scheduled
for London (UK) and Paris (France). What do you hope
to realise from the overall programme?
Derbyshire:
How the urban environment is important and influential
on not only my work, but work of others. How the environment
is constantly changing proving that the camera does
lie in one sense. I will have to see how it develops
and I think I will have a lot of time reflecting on
this.
Sweeney:
What do you envision for the next stage of
development?
Derbyshire:
The project is one that has and allows for
an organic development in how it evolves. From the shared
experiences of this current programme will determine
how indeed the next stage of ‘When the City Speaks’
expands and evolves.
This
exhibition will run from 10th - 22nd August
2007.
Opening: 10th August 2007, 7.00 pm on wards.

‘Due

removed from the conventional concepts of a studio or

a fusion of activities all on the go, the project becomes
more one of the concept and experience rather than the
end piece produced by each artist. Similar, the art
becomes a residue itself and an annotation of the artists
experience in this research project of urban space’.
This
was the introduction by Jo Derbyshire, the Curator,
on the current exhibition at the South Bohemia Gallery
on Smithdown Road, Liverpool, England.
There
was presented an array of art in eclectic explosion
across the walls of the gallery. Each work merged with
next forming one large installation. It reminded me
of sketch book work and conveyed the experiences of
each individual artist through their visual dialogue
on art in the urban space. The amalgamation of art moving
into the next communicated the journey of the flaneur
to have the viewer engaged and explores and dissect
each piece of art.
On
the night of the private view, Friday 10 August 2007,
George Lund provoked an impromptu performance and adopted
only his yellow feathery mask, which usually belongs
to the rest of Funkadelic suit. He enticed co-artist,
Gaynor Evelyn Sweeney, to spontaneously join him in
a dance to the sounds of Bolero by Bizet. They came
together to waltz and then moved to gesture to the art
on the walls, turning to each other again spun out of
the gallery entrance and took the performance into the
streets. Eccentric, bewildering, enticing and fun, the
onlookers laughed bemused and confounded to the antics
of the two artists.
The
exhibition has work from many different creative practictioners,
such as writers, visual artists, musicians and more.
The artists who contributed to this research project
were Colin Binns, Claudia Brookes, Sarah Brookes, Peter
Carr, David Chalkey, Ingrid Christie, Sarah Cox, Jo
Derbyshire, Kate Eggleston-Wirtz, Kofi Fosu, June Rose
H, Tony Knox, George Lund, Eddie Lyons, Gaby Malcolm,
Steve McKay, Karen McLeod, Elaine Stapleton, Natalie
