Our online exhibitions over the next months will be presenting new work from David Blandy, Sean Vicary and Richard Fenwick, along with a group exhibition focusing on Dance Animation.

Offline, we are staging a dance animation panel event in collaboration with Portland Green Cultural Projects, presenting a film programme at the Canary Wharf Screen, premiering Carolina Melis’ new film at Ham House and Garden and commissiong five Random Acts films for Channel 4.

Our current programme, supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, finishes around the end of March. After this point we may go a bit quiet as we focus on researching and developing new projects and transforming the organisation.

David Blandy: Passage of the Soul brings together several recent works that explore this ongoing quest, as enacted by a cast of alter-egos that stem from the artist’s passions for kung fu, soul, hip hop and Japanese manga. The exhibition will include Child of the Atom; Duels & Dualities: Battle of the Soul; and the first part of a new, episodic animation Anjin.

To coincide with the exhibition at Exeter Phoenix, Animate Projects is delighted to present Blandy's newest work Anjin online at animateprojects.org in February.

David Blandy: Passage of the Soul is produced by Exeter Phoenix Gallery in association with Animate Projects and Zabludowicz Collection.]]> http://www.animateprojects.org/news/david_blandy_at_exeter_phoenix_and_online http://www.animateprojects.org/news/introducing_our_new_administrator Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:00:01 GMT
