research in space and spatialities in art, philosophy, literature and politics
Furnace Park // PODIUM Zero Hours (Part of Art Sheffield 2013) // images
On Saturday October 5th, Furnace Park hosted an exhibition by Ben Cain, We’re In A Delicate Phase.
Alongside Ben’s work, which was made on the day with the help of volunteers from SKINN, Art Sheffield 2013 and the French Department at the University of Sheffield, Amanda Crawley Jackson (University of Sheffield) and Bhavani Esapathi (Henry Moore Institute) curated a programme of interventions by speakers from Sheffield and Leeds on the subject of zero hours. This was the first in the PODIUM series, which uses an informal and participatory soapbox format to bring together speakers from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines while inviting spontaneous intervention from visitors to the park.
Once we’ve gathered our thoughts and warmed up a bit from the sunny autumnal chill of the day, we’ll be publishing some of the interventions here online and also putting together a free magazine containing images and ideas from the day, which will be distributed locally in all the usual venues.
