09.01.2022 Postscript: Writing After Conceptual Art features the work of over fifty artists and writers exploring the artistic possibilities of language. Presenting works from the 1960s to the present, the exhibition includes paintings, sculpture, installation, video and works on paper that raise questions about how we read, look at, hear, and process language today. A major current underlying the exhibition argues that the field of literature known as conceptual writing can be seen as engaging in a provocative dialogue with the field of contemporary art, producing new insights into the meaning of both literature and art. Featuring our very own Mark Amerika and Chad Mossholder

01.01.2022 Coming up on Monday 19 November, a free all-day symposium presented by Paper Tigers and the Centre for Creative Arts: 'Unintended Consequences: Has the Internet created a social myth too big to fail?' 'The Internet in its present form has undergone a number of "conceptual evolutions", yet at its base it remains an open network of computers programmed to exchange packages of data. In the 1960s Cold War hysteria prompted the United States to create a decentralized network capab...le of withstanding a nuclear strike. By the 1990s the Internet had developed into a world wide web for mainstream use. While inventors saw the technological potential of the network, it has been the ideological enthusiasm of developers that has propelled the Internet through the last two decades with the promise of its utopian applications. We are now living amongst a certain cynicism of commentators on the scope and application of Internet culture that marks a regression of the hype surrounding online potentialities.' Presenters include: Marcus Breen (Bond University), Hugh Davies (La Trobe University), Scott McQuire (University of Melbourne), Alex Lambert (University of Melbourne), and Jenny Kennedy (Swinburne University) 9:30-5:00pm, Monday 19 November 2012 La Trobe University City Campus, 215 Franklin St., Melbourne Follow the link for more information and to RSVP
