The Crown Heights Film Festival celebrates local and international film in the heart of Brooklyn. With the generous support of Five Myles Gallery, the festival will showcase short narratives, documentaries, experimental/fine art films and animations from Thursday, October 13 through Saturday, October 15, 2011.

Part performance, part installation, part gathering place, To Gather; is a collection of performative and architectural artifacts from a cross section of Crown Heights’ social spaces. Bringing a local perspective to urban flux, the artwork raises questions about perceptions of ‘authenticity’ in a rapidly changing Brooklyn neighborhood.

Visitors to the installation in FiveMyles Garage are encouraged to hang out on the stoop, converse in the makeshift pulpit, and relax in the barbershop chair. Erik da Barber will be on hand opening night, as well as hip-hop duo DobleFlo, vocal artist Malesha Jessie, poet Lynne Procope and comedian Elon James White. For the remainder of the exhibition, the public is invited to linger and use the artwork as their own gathering place.

Exhibition: August 6–14, 2011. Opening Reception: Saturday, August 6, 5–8pm. Performances begin at 6pm. Location: FiveMyles Gallery, 558 St. Johns Place, Brooklyn NY 11238. Gallery Hours: Thursday–Sunday 1–6pm or by appointment. Subway: 2,3,4,5,S to Franklin Avenue.

You are all most welcome to join us for a Kaffemik at Shetland Museum & Archives, Lerwick on Saturday 12th December 2009, 2-4pm.

This event shall serve to open SIKURLUK, a group exhibition by artists Jacob Bee, Hamer Dodds, Erin Gleason, Melissa MacRobert and Julia Martin. Kaffemik is a Danish term for a Greenlandic social gathering around a cup of coffee to celebrate occasions and exchange news. The artists shall be on hand for an open dialogue with guests to talk about their fieldwork in Greenland, the projects that have grown from there, and the showcased works themselves.

In May 2008, the group took part in a research trip to the mouth of the Jacobshavn glacier in Ilulissat, north-west Greenland, with internationally acclaimed artist Elizabeth Ogilvie as part of her ongoing arctic research and International Polar Year project.

Erin is pleased to announce the launch of FIELDWORK, the first publication by A/S/N Mutual Press. FIELDWORK gathers together a series of recent conversations with leading international artists who have visited Edinburgh in the last year, as well as anthropologists, landscape architects, and composers including Joseph Kosuth, Dan Peterman, Marc Camille Chaimowicz, Alan Johnston, Sanna Marander, Tim Ingold, Eelco Hooftman, and Martin Parker. Each interview reveals a complimentary vision of what it means to do fieldwork today, and the stimulating challenges of site-specific enquiry and practice.
