Through readings, presentations and discussion, Annotations artist Heather Phillipson and invited friends: Helen Cammock, artist; Karen Di Franco, archivist and curator; Helen Nisbet, Curatorial Fellow, Cubitt; and Helena Reckitt, curator and researcher, will consider intersections of drawn and written lines – the potential convergences for visual and poetic practices in attempting to, as Kathy Acker said, ‘mine the hot stuff’.

Please note: This event will not be recorded

Drawing Room’s Summer School is a week long programme of dynamic workshops run by professional artists. Ideal for both experienced and beginner artist practitioners, the workshops will enable you to develop work conceptually using a range of material processes.

The title of this year’s Summer School is The Body Politic, and calls for all those interested in developing work around this broad and timely theme. The workshop leaders are artists Joy Gerrard, Markus Vater and Phoebe Boswell.

An informal session providing an opportunity to discuss themes raised in the work of Heather Phillipson, our current ‘Annotations’ artist in residence.

An afternoon of presentations and discussions, selected from an open call, examines recent research and critical issues around contemporary drawing.
