ART WRITING FIELD STATION will be take place at East Street Arts Patrick Studios, St.Mary’s Lane, Leeds, LS9 7EH, on Saturday March 27th 2010, 10am – 1pm as part of the RITE publication launch. A map is here.

ART WRITING FIELD STATION is an ongoing event and publications series at which practitioners present material and evidence of the “field” of art writing. The aim is both to make a field recording of the field of art writing as constituted by a set of practices, and to offer an example of that field in poetic operation. 

 As well as individual presentations, each ART WRITING FIELD STATION produces a lexicon or live writing archive of its group discussions, which serves as a script and provocation for future events.

 ART WRITING FIELD STATION at Patrick Studio’s will feature presentations of new work by David Berridge, Rachel Lois Clapham, Emma Cocker, Mary Paterson, and Nathan Walker.  

 Please join us for the presentations and discussion, but note space is limited. To reserve a place email David at verysmallkitchen@gmail.com

The first set of FIELD STATION chapbooks (including texts by Tamarin Norwood, Matthew MacKissack, and Hyun Jin Cho) will be published on Mar 30th).

This web site includes a range of images, texts and materials unfolding the concept of the field station and its possible architectures. See here.    

 ART WRITING FIELD STATION LEEDS is supported by Writing Encounters, East Street Arts, PSL (Project Space Leeds) and New Work Network.
