Situation
Situation is now a key concept in 21st-century art. This anthology traces its evolution from the 1960s emergence of site-specific
art to its divergent implications in the global era. Among the topics surveyed are the limits of site; the role of the artist as
ethnographer or fieldworker; the relation between action and public space; the meaning of place and locality; and the crucial role
of the curator in new situation-specific art.
Claire Doherty, who contributed to the engage/enquire International Conference 'Future Perfect' in 2009, is Director of
Situations, a commissioning and research programme based at the University of the West of England, Bristol.

Night Time
This artist book by Ana Laura Lopez de la Torre documents her exploration of the London Borough of Southwark during her time as the Acme
Southwark Studio Residency holder. Over 18 months she charted night-time through the experiences of its inhabitants from school children to
visual artists, from academics to breastfeeding mums. The featured texts and images were produced and gathered through conversations, events,
walks, workshops and an open call for submissions. 'Night Time' reveals some of the ways in which exchanges between artists and communities can
have material form and addresses the growing interest in collaborative and socially engaged practice.
"To the best of my recollection, I was never sent to bed. By the time I was born my family was either too tired or too busy to furnish
me with life's most basic protocols. I was never taught essential skills such as how to do my laces up, or how to read the time, and even key
instructions to brush my teeth or wear my glasses were never imparted. It was the freedom of such neglect that I first discovered the pleasure
of night-time"
Contributors: Neil Chapman, Inua Ellams, Chris Jones, Paola Junqueira, Daniel Lehan, Dr Rev Rosemary Mallet, Tansy Spinks and Dr Deborah Talbot.

A collection of photographs and writing by 15 young refugees who have been mentored by some of London's most established
and up-and-coming photographers. The participants all share one common experience: they are young refugees separated from their

people finding their place in a new city.
Photographer mentors on the project include Adam Broomberg, Suki Dhanda, Jillian Edelstein, Jenny Matthews, Jo Metson Scott,
Sarah Moon and Othello de Souza Hartley. The book also has additional contributions by critic Charlotte Cotton, broadcaster

Artists and Schools
The book includes a variety of case studies and practical references taken from past projects. At Handsworth Grammar,
Berlin-based artist Sofia Hulten worked with pupils to critically observe spaces within the school, developing a series
of small interventions that temporarily altered the environment including books that fell like dominoes, cutlery that lay
in geometric shapes and playground markings that were continued up and along building walls. At George Dixon International,
British artists, junueau/projects/ whose work uses technology and electronic gadgets, created a virtual environment and
interactive computer game with the pupils that referenced the work of Canadian artist Lisa Milroy, and was subsequently installed at Ikon.
The text was prepared with the support of creative learning consultant Noel Dunne. The book can be purchased at Ikon
Shop for £8 and can be ordered for delivery by calling 0121 248 0711.
