tryharderfailbetter: July 2012

http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html

Sunday, 8 July 2012. Urgh, how has it been a month since I wrote I'd have an update in a month about we face forward. I'm sure I wrote that only last week. I'll make sure to post something this week. Work is slow at the moment so I'm sure I'll be able to rustle a few hundred words up. In the meantime, that series of Grayson Perry docs was certainly something wasn't it? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What does this all mean? There should be gallery. And anything else vaguely related to art. Image: pubic hair...

tryharderfailbetter: July 2010

http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 27 July 2010. A shock from the mains. I'm sorry but I have no excuse for an absence of this length. It's not that there hasn't been any art to review, as there has. I went to see it, made copious notes, and never turned it into an article. I'm sorry, I hope you can forgive me, maybe we can give things another chance between us? Intuition, is at the Whitworth gallery until January 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What does this all mean? There should be gallery. And I'll get onto it right away.

tryharderfailbetter: April 2010

http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 13 April 2010. So it felt like I was back at art school for the evening which brought back memories, and when I got home I tuned into Goldsmiths: But Is It Art? Oh wait hang on, that Goldsmith’s thing should be repeated on Sunday at 10PM on BBC4. Http:/ www.castlefieldgallery.co.uk/Default.asp? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What does this all mean? I'll try to give you my idiosyncratic take on the Art scene in the Northwest, with what I hope to be a much needed touch of humour and irreverence.

tryharderfailbetter: 2012 and so on.

http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2012/06/2012-and-so-on.html

Saturday, 2 June 2012. 2012 and so on. In my last post, dated June 2011, I promised there would be some updates soon. I don't work at the college any more; now I work for a marketing company, mainly Photoshopping a blue sky into pictures of shops. It's not the most glamorous of jobs. I'm also learning the violin at a rate that would embarrass a 4 year old. The new We Face Forward exhibition looks good. I promise you some sort of content on the subject with the next month. What does this all mean? After n...

tryharderfailbetter: February 2010

http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

Thursday, 18 February 2010. Ron Mueck in the Artist's Room. Ron Mueck (b 1958) is a hyperrealist sculptor, who your mum has probably heard of. The painstakingly exquisite sculptures of naked humans in awkward poses are some of the most striking and symbolic pieces of contemporary art to emerge from Saatchi’s influential Sensation show. His piece Dead Dad. 1996) made him a household name, and he went on to have his monumental piece Boy. Featured as part of the Millennium Dome. The three pieces in this sho...

tryharderfailbetter: This Game Cheats!

http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2011/01/this-game-cheats.html

Tuesday, 18 January 2011. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What does this all mean? I'll try to give you my idiosyncratic take on the Art scene in the Northwest, with what I hope to be a much needed touch of humour and irreverence. As much as I love Art, and I do, I feel it can be a bit aloof, detached or unapproachable, and just plain wanky at times. I hope to be an incredulous guide through this, by turns seemly torrid yet passionless landscape. There should be gallery. By the way, I accept bribes.

tryharderfailbetter: September 2010

http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html

Thursday, 30 September 2010. I can't believe it's been two months since the last time I spouted my art nonsense all over the internet. There's been loads to write about! New exhibtions are popping up everywhere, and the Liverpool Biennial is on! Which is only the UK's best biennial! It's also the Manchester Weekender, this weekend. I'm afraid I'll have to link you to a much better Arts blog than mine for news of that, as I can't be bothered paraphrasing a load of dates and times for no one's benefit.
