Episode 11: Artur Zmijewski, T5, Oct - Dec 2010

Author: tramway October 28, 2010 Duration: 22:54
Curators Lesley Young and James Hutchison discuss Artur Zmijewski's work Democracies, their relationship to the artist, his developing practise and ponder audiences' reactions to the work. Democracies features 19 videos of mass public gatherings, riots and protests shown simultaneously in Tramway's street-facing gallery T5.

Step behind the curtain of Glasgow's dynamic visual arts scene with the Tramway Visual Arts Podcasts. This series offers a unique, layered perspective on the exhibitions housed within Tramway's distinctive spaces. Rather than a standard audio guide, each episode builds a rich, conversational understanding of the work on display. You'll hear directly from the artists as they discuss their intentions and processes, while programmers provide insight into the curation and thematic threads that bind a show together. Perhaps most uniquely, the voices of visitors are also woven into these discussions, capturing the immediate and personal reactions that give art its living context. We delve into the background of the creators, exploring their previous work and the ideas that inform the current exhibition. It’s an immersive companion that adds depth to your visit, whether you're standing in the gallery or reflecting from afar. For each major exhibition, this podcast serves as an evolving audio catalogue, offering nuance and narrative that static text often cannot. Tune in to discover the stories behind the installations and the multitude of ways they are experienced and interpreted.
