Six months since the seminal meeting, MadLab felt very much like ‘home’ for the fourth group meeting. Five of us came along this month and there were plenty of varied projects to cover with some interesting debates being generated in many cases.

James Pashley started by sharing the exciting news that he has now confirmed an offer of employment working as a teaching assistant in Japan! He will be working as part of a cultural exchange programme to support English teaching beginning in late July or early August. While his insights and contributions will be missed in meetings, we are all looking forward to seeing his new website, which we briefly discussed, and to hearing updates on his experiences via his new blog. Meanwhile I am wondering if this means we can now label CRITgroup as an international art collective…! (more…)

CRITgroup is a recently formed initiative, started by graduates from MIRIAD (Manchester Institute for Research and Innovation in Art and Design) at MMU (Manchester Metropolitan University). It aims to facilitate an opportunity for those working in a broad range of disciplines to meet, share and discuss their practical work as well as issues impacting on their practices, be those professional or otherwise. 
While exchange and dialogue is encouraged, those who wish to attend but do not have new work to share are also very welcome. 

To date, those involved in the group have practices ranging from Sculpture, Jewellery, Photography, 3D Design, Textiles, Book Art, Ceramics, Installation, Painting, Community Projects, Illustration, Curation and Graphic Design. Though this is a new group, it is hoped that opportunities for collaboration and/or exhibition will develop in the future.

If you would like more information about the next event or would like to bring your work along, please register your interest using the form to the right.
