Finery & Filth @ The Terrace!

Dante Ferrara presents an evening of Finery and Filth at Cafe Portico @ The Terrace, Grantham Street Lincoln on Friday 13th November 2009 at 7.30 pm. Experience a delightful hour of music and songs by Henry Purcell and other members of the 'Restoration Rat Pack' plus a ribald tale set in 1695.

This Lincoln artist comes highly recommended by Betty Cooper who had engaged Dante to perform to a group of highly respectable ladies who were swept away by his interpretation of restoration lute music and collasped into to laughter on hearing his cheeky performance of rude songs from this period. Definitely not suitable for those of a puritan disposition.

Cafe Portico also provide the good food and drink to accompany this entertaining, not to be missed evening.

Tickets £5.00 on the door. For further information call 07988 104373.

Remote Churches of Herefordshire
24 – 26 July

Enjoy a real treat by joining us to explore some unique churches that are hard to find without an experienced guide.

We will visit Rowlestone, a church associated with the Herefordshire School of Romanesque Sculpture, and Clockock with its chancel set out as it would have been in the 17th Century. Further churches include the famous Kilpeck with its fascinating carvings and Abbey Dore, which began as a Cistercian monastery and was restored by John Scudamore.

The church at Bacton and the church of St Margarets provide other historic gems. Bacton has one of only three stone depictions of Elizabeth I that she allowed and at St Margarets we will see an elaborately carved rood loft, that survived Edward VI’s order for destruction.

Other churches in the tour promise diverse surprises. Hoarwithy is an Italianate and Byzantine building that looks out of place but is the most exciting Victorian church in Herefordshire!

Brockhampton was designed by William Lethaby, a friend of William Morris, and was actively involved with the Arts and Crafts Movement which is reflected in its the architecture.The remote church in Michaelchurch nestles in its own private valley. It contains a striking Norman font and, of all things, a Roman altar to a deity worshipped at crossroads. At Garway we will see a church associated with the Knights Templar which displays the foundations of a round nave.

Mark Chambers at London Zoo!

Mark Chambers (28), who works from The Terrace in Lincoln, was selected by London Zoo ,from hundreds of illustrators across the country, to redesign the children's section of the famous attraction.

Called Animal Adventure, the new children's zoo has been given a £2.3 million revamp and aims to immerse youngsters in the sights, sounds and smells of the animal kingdom.

The wild world of characters designed by Mr Chambers along with rhymes and play zones will bring young animal lovers face-to-face with red pandas, porcupines and prairie dogs.
"It's all part of a massive 10 year redevelopment of the zoo," said Mr Chambers, who is signed to the London-based Bright Agency. "Previously the zoo had used photographs of animals and it was all very proper and not much fun. They decided that they wanted to use illustrations and a different way of teaching kids about animals."

Two main child characters designed by Mr Chambers will guide children through a series of information boards in four different zones of the new zoo.

His work – which will be seen by around 1.2 million people each year – will even form the backdrop to the zoo's cafe and will be placed on souvenir pens and pencils.

Phil Holmes, interpretation developer at the zoo said Mr Chambers was the best illustrator they could find.
"Mark's illustrations were the perfect match for Animal Adventure," he said.

Being Left in the Dark is Good for Business

The Terrace is encouraging it's resident businesses to get involved with Earth Hour 2009 – the world’s largest global climate change event. We are joining Optima Graphic Design Consultants to invite you to simply turn of all non-essential lights and electrical appliances for one hour between 8.30pm and 9.30pm on Saturday 28 March.

Optima, which has produced graphics and packaging for WWF since 2000, is supporter of the global charity’s environmental aims and believes that charity not only begins at home, but it can also begin at work.As a business, The Terrace is conscious of its environmental responsibility. But it’s not just climate change that we’re promoting, what’s good for the environment can often be good for business. For example, Marina Rische is the seamstress who has worked on all of Optima’s promotional T-shirts for Earth Hour. Marina runs a small business in Lincoln undertaking bespoke tailoring and alterations. Marina was so impressed with the idea of switching off non-essential electricity for an hour in her shop that she’s introduced the practice every day. By simply switching-off her equipment and lights at lunchtime, Marina saved £70 last quarter. If turning off power can have such a dramatic effect for a small business, think what it could do for you.

Lincoln’s most recognised landmark, Lincoln Cathedral, will be switching off along with Lincoln Castle, The Collection, the Usher Art Gallery and the University of Lincoln. The Terrace is hoping that many other local attractions will participate as well. Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour to raise awareness of climate change. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights.

Global landmarks such as San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness. This year, iconic landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower and the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff are already committed to Earth Hour 2009.

To find out more visit www.optimadesign.co.uk/earthhour where you will be able to see who else is taking part, join the Earth Hour Lincoln UK Facebook group and see the latest tweets from the Earth Hour Lincoln UK Twitter page.

Lynn Baker Off To New Zealand

It’s a busy start to the year for Terrace-based glass designer, Lynn Baker of Studio 14 . She will soon be wrapping up her beautifully handmade glass and shipping it across the world to New Zealand.

Lynn’s work has been selected to exhibit in the UKGift 09 show in Auckland. Organised by UK Trade & Investment, the 4-day show will be held at the British Consulate in March. Lynn’s work will also feature in the show catalogue which will be distributed to buyers, retailers and media throughout New Zealand.

Working from her studio at The Terrace in Lincoln’s Cultural Quarter, Lynn produces hand blown and kiln formed glass bowls, forms and illuminated panels. Lynn gets her inspiration from the changes in light as it travels across the naturally beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds. As the light reflects and refracts off the glass, each piece is both tactile and optically exciting.

Lynn said “I am very excited - this opportunity offers a great way to test out a market with little expense. I think that New Zealand would be a great outlet for my work and if I can generate sales and new buyers, then I hope to follow this up with a visit to Auckland within two years”.

Sandie Griffiths, International Trade Adviser for UK Trade & Investment said “New Zealand enjoys a long history of association with the UK, much of the population is of British descent and the ties remain strong. As the legal and financial processes in New Zealand are similar to that of the UK, doing business is relatively straightforward.”

UKGift 09 will run from 24th to 27th March 2009 at the British Consulate in Auckland.

New Artist In Residence at The Terrace

New Artist In Residence in Collection Studio at The Terrace.

David Harket is the new Artist In Residence in Collection Studio at The Terrace until 17th March.

David's project is to undertake visual research primarily in the form of drawings and other documentation such as photographs into selected landscape paintings of Peter De Wint in the collection of the Usher Gallery. Peter De Wint (1784-1849) was an English watercolourist working in the early 19th Century. David chose the work of Peter De Wint because the Usher Gallery holds a significant collection of this landscape painters’ work. In addition an important theme in David's own practice concerns an analysis of the depiction of landscape and an assessment of landscape painting as a genre.

This project is supported by a grant from the Arts Council England.

Peter De Wint produced a series of paintings and watercolours of Lincolnshire including views both in and around the County City of Lincoln itself during his frequent visits. David also has a personal connection with Lincoln. He was born in Lincoln and his childhood was spent in Lincoln and North Hykeham. David's research will concentrate on selected works which relate to Lincoln and Lincolnshire.

During the course of the residency David will visit where possible, some of the locations which De Wint depicted in and around Lincoln, making his own observational notes and documentation. From the Usher Gallery's records David has compiled a list of De Wint's work which relates to such locations.

In order to develop his artistic practice David had conceived the idea of researching and making work in response to an existing collection of paintings in a public gallery. David's residency at here provides the opportunity and context within which he can realise this concept.
David is recording in an informal diary from the progress of his research. The link to this is http://www.davidharker.blogspot.com

Also further information on David's work can be found at www.axisweb.org/artist/davidharker and www.axisweb.org/dialogue/davidharker
