SUMMARY:Bunker Talk #164: Benedict L Phillips
DESCRIPTION:Please register on Eventbrite if you wish to attend. \n\n\n\nA video recording of this talk will be available from 5 June. \n\n\n\nAn A-Z of neurodivergent ideas \n\n\n\nBenedict Phillips is an established artist\, curator\, and consultant. His practice is eclectic\, encompassing a broad range of methodologies\, generating work as diverse as public art\, performance\, sculpture\, photography\, and media art. He is particularly concerned with the ongoing interrelationship and shifting hierarchy between photography\, sculpture and performance within his practice\, and the aesthetics of each approach. Exploiting historical production processes as well as more recent digitally driven approaches informs the making of much of his work. \n\n\n\nBenedict has been making neuro-affirmative art projects for 35 years and recently celebrated the 30th anniversary of his manifesto and artwork The Agenda of the Agresiv Dislecksick\, published in Disability Arts in London (DAIL)\, 1995. \n\n\n\nBenedict is currently developing a project that encompasses and reflects on the past\, present\, and possible futures of neurodivergent creative practice. He has recently rescued the Art Dyslexic Trust Archive\, which encompasses the period 1992 to 2012\, from destruction. \n\n\n\nBenedict is Director and founding member of several arts groups and organisations\, including: Field Study (est. 1993\, book art and mail group); Digital Media Labs (est. 2010\, professional development residencies for artists); Lens Lab Project (est. 2020\, a not-for-profit socially engaged photographic community-focused organisation). Benedict has been a regular guest lecturer at universities in the UK and the USA over the past 25 years\, delivering professional development and artist talks\, and he is a member of the expert panel at Manchester School of Architecture.

SUMMARY:Bunker Talk #165: Stephen Sutcliffe
DESCRIPTION:Please register on Eventbrite if you wish to attend. \n\n\n\nA video recording of this talk will be available from 19 June. \n\n\n\nUK based artist Stephen Sutcliffe (1968\, Harrogate) creates and exhibits films\, collages\, wall paintings and photographs from an extensive archive of material he has been amassing since childhood\, together with items found in institutional collections. Often reflecting on aspects of British culture and identity and having literary origins\, the results are melancholic\, poetic and satirical amalgams which subtly tease out and critique ideas of class-consciousness and cultural authority. Employing an extensive editing process Sutcliffe’s works subvert predominant narratives\, generating alternative readings through the juxtaposition and layering of both found and self-generated material. \n\n\n\nRecent solo exhibitions include\, Psychopomp\, Moon Grove 2026\, You Can Come in But You Won’t Like it\, Rob Tufnell 2023\, High Windows\, Dead Birds\, Künstlerhaus Stuttgart (2019). Sex Symbols in Sandwich Signs\, Talbot Rice Edinburgh\, Twixt Cup and Lip\, Hepworth Wakefield (2017)\, Going Over\, Rob Tufnell\, London (2015)\, Outwork and Workings Out\, Tramway\, Glasgow (2013). In 2018 he participated in the Manchester International Festival in collaboration with Graham Eatough on a film for the Whitworth Gallery No End to Enderby\, for which they won the Contemporary Arts Society Award. He has been shortlisted for the Jarman Award twice and in 2012 he won the Margaret Tait Award. In 2019 he had two books published\, at Fifty (Sternberg Press) a monograph and Much Obliged\, (Book Works) a kind of autobiography. That year\, he curated a Herbert Read Archive exhibition at Leeds University’s Brotherton Library with Pavillion\, accompanied by the video City of Dreadful Something. In 2024 he presented Memories of the Five Administrations\, a joint exhibition with Simon Bedwell at Beaconsfield Gallery\, London.

SUMMARY:Writers’ Retreat with Chad McDonald
DESCRIPTION:In-person only in GE 2.06. \n\n\n\nWriters’ Retreats give PhD students in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities the opportunity to devote a whole day to writing in a quiet\, structured\, and supportive atmosphere. The retreats are facilitated by Dr Chad McDonald\, the faculty’s Senior Academic and Study Skills Tutor. You will need to arrive ‘ready to write’ but may\, of course\, bring any materials (laptops\, books\, data\, etc.) with you for the whole-day session. There will be some short discussion around good writing practice and how to approach your writing as a professional task\, but much of the day will be devoted to writing without distraction. Whatever your writing project (e.g.\, annual report\, paper\, thesis)\, the retreat will provide a space away from your office or home in which to concentrate and reflect on the process of writing. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
