FIRST PROJECT!

OUR FIRST PROJECT IS CALLED JOURNEYS AND DESTINATIONS IN GROUPS WE HAD TO VENTURE OUT AND VISIT A LIST OF INTERESTING CITY VENUES. INCLUDING: -

THE NOTTINGHAM CONTEMPARY

VIVIENNE WESTWOOD

PAUL SMITH

THE NOTTINGHAM CASTLE

THE PLACE THAT I LIKE THE MOST WAS THE NOTTINGHAM CONTEMPORY MUSEAM WHERE WE SAW THE WORKS OF THE TOBIAS TWINS ARTISTS FROM TRASYLVANIA, WHICH WAS VERY INSPIRING!

Gert and Uwe Tobias’ large woodcuts, gouache paintings, typewriter drawings and ceramic sculptures combine influences from traditional folk art and abstract art from the early 20th century. Their vividly coloured images, objects and environments evoke a world that is hallucinatory and strange. Twin brothers, Gert and Uwe grew up in Translyvania, then Germany.

Bruno Basso and Christopher Brooke – explained it as being “where bleeding edge techno-futurism meets dusty hand-scribbled antiquity” – which on the catwalk translated as handwritten notes by Da Vinci, Tolstoy, Balzac and Saint-Exupery providing prints on short little dresses, prim shirts and peg-shaped trousers.
