Art Exhibition by Panayiotis Marlagoutsos / LT Gallery, 1 Orchard Street, Weston-super-Mare BS23 1RG / South West

Description

Panayiotis was born in Argos, Greece in 1977. He studied at the Athens Schools of Fine Arts and is a member of the Hellenic Chamber of Fine Arts. He has had work in seven group exhibitions and has had five solo shows. More recently exhibiting locally to where he now lives in and around Crudwell. His work is open to interpretation by the viewer.

"I can remember myself with a pencil drawing on a piece of paper at a very early age. I love it because it is my ‘antidepressant’. You can tell tales of the most tragic or the most beautiful images using very modest commodities.

Contrary to common belief, the painter doesn’t know exactly what he sets out to do, nor does he know how to do it. He simply hopes that he can react correctly to the dilemmas that the art brings about. The anticipation of the correct reaction gives birth to passion for painting.

That’s what painting is to me- the pleasure and the acknowledgement that you are in fact just a child; a continuous pursuit and a harsh resistance to obligatory adulthood. It is the possibility to preserve one additional nature; that of being an adult but retaining the right to enjoy life, even when life is not so pleasurable, simply by ‘opening windows…’"

- Panyiotis Marlagoutsos

Blue Cloud Scratch seeks works for upcoming scratch nights / Blue Cloud Scratch / London

Description

lue Cloud Scratch are seeking submissions from dance artists to present short works at our Blue Cloud Scratch on Tuesday 30 May and Friday 21 July. Pieces can be up to 15 minutes long and we prioritise new work and works-in-progress rather than completed pieces.

Please note: we can only accept applications from UK residents

Deadline for applications: 6 May / 26 June


To apply please complete this form: http://ift.tt/2oTkiPn

Due to the number of applications we receive, we strongly prefer to see footage either of the proposed work or other work by the same choreographer.

You will need to cover any costs involved such as travel, costumes and props. Each piece will receive a share of box office income but it is unlikely to be a substantial amount.

Our scratch nights provide artists with a friendly space in which to show their work, with facilitated Q&As, technical and marketing support and documentation.

Blue Cloud Scratch originated from Cloud Dance Festival’s open space event in January 2016 on gender and equality, and seeks to address the need for scratch nights and feedback sessions, while Blue Elephant Theatre seeks to explore ways to support independent artists.

"Camberwell’s friendly performing arts space, The Blue Elephant has teamed up with established dance platform, Cloud Dance Festival, to showcase brand new choreography and make dance more accessible at the same time…Blue Cloud Scratch has shown itself to be a very welcome addition to the Off-West End performing arts scene. A rewarding experience for those on, off- and backstage which hopefully will become a regular event."

Health: From Here to Where?

1st Prize: £1500

Runners Up: £500

The UK. 2017. The health gap between the richest and poorest children for obesity has widened every year for the past nine years. A quarter of the most deprived 10 year olds are now obese, more than twice the number of their least deprived peers.

And it’s not just obesity. Across many aspects of health, inequalities are widening. The most deprived can now expect at least 19 fewer healthy life years than their most affluent counterparts.

Fast forward 10, 20, 50, 100 years. Where are we headed? What are the consequences for our health, for us as individuals and as a society, if we keep on this trajectory?

That’s where we – the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH) and the Health Foundation – want your help. We want talented creative writers with an interest in health and wellbeing to help us imagine a dystopian future (near or far) where the consequences of the social and commercial determinants of health are played out.  The story should shed light on the lack of choice people currently face about the factors that shape their health and wellbeing such as work, education, housing, social networks and communities. These factors are largely outside of individual control and are influenced by political, social, economic, environmental and cultural factors.

If this idea captures your imagination, we would like you to submit a short story of up to 5,000 words to the HEALTH: FROM HERE TO WHERE? competition by 11th June 2017.
