KATY CONNOR

20 Nov 2009 10:00:00 GMT

Exeter Phoenix, Bradninch Place, Gandy Street, Exeter, Devon EX4 3LS
Until Tue, 21/12/2010, 8pm

Katy Connor’s work demonstrates a fascination with the moving image and its capacity to visualise patterns of thought and physical sensation. Her latest work Pure Flow, commissioned through the Exeter Phoenix Digital Media Bursary, will generate live, moving imagery created from the data flows between a Global Positioning System [GPS] device and the three satellites which triangulate its position at any one time. Connor reveals a new way of visualising ordinarily invisible streams of data and acknowledges the common usage in surveying and navigational tools of sophisticated technologies, initially developed for military purposes. The exhibition will also include a further selection of Connor’s screen-based works, sculptures and drawings which also reflect upon the profound and ubiquitous presence of technology in our daily lives.

Closer by Patrick Marber

09 Mar 2010 19:30:00 GMT

Barnfield Theatre
Until Sat, 20/3/2010, 7:30pm

This famous British comedy-drama of coupling and uncoupling, instant attraction and inveterate infidelity offers more than just a voyeur's peek inside somebody else's bedroom. It exposes the raw nerve of pain that comes with the territory of love, setting off sympathetic vibrations in anyone who has been there. Dan meets Alice, Dan falls in love with Alice and meets Anna, Anna falls in love with Larry, Dan falls in love with Anna.
‘Closer’, an exciting, urban drama, showcasing the trials of falling in love the modern way. From blind dates, to internet sex, from chic art exhibitions to seedy night clubs — at some stage we have all been in that setting with those feelings.
£8 (£5)

Sovay Berriman

12 Mar 2010 10:00:00 GMT

Exeter Phoenix, Bradninch Place, Gandy Street, Exeter, Devon EX4 3LS
Until Sun, 2/5/2010, 6pm

Sovay Berriman’s practice has a strong theme of exploration, through academic and scientific, as well as imaginative endeavours. Despite romantic and cynical extremes which are often apparent, a sense of humour runs through her work offering a release from this otherwise present tension.
As well as the production of objects, drawings and texts, Berriman also incorporates events into her practice, such as ‘Ghosts, Landscape, Literature: a walk with Dr. Shelley Trower’ (2009) a commissioned text delivered on moorland in Yorkshire and, ‘Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers Back to Back’ (2008) an overnight screening of all the films of the legendary dance duo.
Whether seeking to offer us a route to comprehension or a course of escape is unclear, but what is certain is the importance of fantasy in the topography of Berriman’s work and of her efforts to persuade us to embrace it.

Vibraphonic Knife In The Water & Rosemary’s Baby

18 Mar 2010 20:00:00 GMT

Exeter Phoenix
Thu, 18/3/2010, 8pm

These films are being shown as part of the Polish Film Festival in Exeter – Kinoteka on Tour 2010, not only celebrating the work of director Roman Polanski but also that of soundtrack composer and jazz pianist Krzysztof Komeda, probably the most important artist in the history of Polish Jazz. The Oscar-nominated Knife In The Water (1963 / 94 min / 6pm) is a subtly chilling tale about a married couple who pick up a young hitchhiker to join them on a boating trip provides a background for an agonizingly tense look at male posturing and ego. In Rosemary’s Baby (1968, 136 min, 8.15pm) the mix of Polański’s ordinary settings and Komeda’s score of jazz, 60's pop and unique gothic orchestra lead to a truly disturbing effect in this low key thriller with a shocking twist. Komeda's powerful and chilling theme, The Lullaby, is one of the most memorable of all horror film themes. This event is part of the Polish Film Festival in Exeter - Kinoteka on Tour 2010, which is financially assisted by Polish Cultural Institute and Exeter City Council.
£4.50 (£3.50)
