From 12-14 November, Jo Gane will be exhibiting at The Old Science Museum, 144 Newhall Street:
Critically commenting on the traditional British landscape and our continuing search for an authentic and historical representation of it, Coventry based photographer Jo Gane questions the mythologies and values placed upon specific historical sites across Britain. Adopting the traditional wet plate collodion process for her work, the artist goes in search of relics and objects found within the customary British landscape, specifically sighting out those that hold some evidence of historic authenticity
Jo will also be in the gallery on Thursday 12th Nov from 2-6pm creating some of her glass plate negatives.
I’d not come across TROVE before:
TROVE is an arts organisation that uses Birmingham city as its gallery space. Often happening in unused spaces, in the back of vans or in gardens, TROVE brings to Birmingham some of the best emerging art talent from across the world as well as representing some local emerging Birmingham artists
