SPECIFIC IN-BETWEEN (the choreographic negotiated in six parts) 

CURATED BY HELEN GROGAN FOR FRAMED MOVEMENTS, AUSTRALIAN CENTRE FOR CONTEMPORARY ART. 15 OCTOBER – 19 NOVEMBER 2014

PART 4 - Migrating frames (of space and view)

Katie Lee, Bridie Lunney and Sandra Parker each discuss their approaches to embodiment, movement and absence. These presentations open discussion for the specific ontologies of bodies emerging within the artist’s recent projects and reseach. This simply structure of three distinct presentations is followed by open discussion with the artists, Helen Grogan and Hannah Mathews. This open discussion additional considers recent shifts in curatorial contexts for performance and sculpture. 

About SPECIFIC IN-BETWEEN:

SPECIFIC IN-BETWEEN (the choreographic negotiated in six parts) is a series of performative and discursive activities approaching the choreographic within current art practice. The project adopts a flexible and responsive format, with each of the series’ six parts developed in conjunction with participating artists, choreographers and theorists. Online writings and materials accompany this project, some appearing intermittently. The project occurs within the exhibition Framed Movements curated by Hannah Mathews. 

Occurring within the gallery context, an iteration of Helen Grogan’s SETTING AND RESETTING marks a changing space of activation on the surface of Gallery 1, ACCA. 55 laminate flooring panels are arranged in 6 configurations over 6 weeks, adapting to the spatial and social requirements of artists’ live contributions to the series SPECIFIC IN-BETWEEN (The choreographic negotiated in six parts).

Participating artists: Gwenneth Boelens, Deanne Butterworth, Justin Clemens, Emily Cormack, Matthew Day, Atlanta Eke, Brian Fuata, Agatha Gothe-Snape, Nathan Gray, Helen Grogan, Hannah Mathews, Bianca Hester, Becky Hilton, Shelley Lasica, Katie Lee, Bridie Lunney, Kate MacNeill, Sandra Parker, Geoff Robinson, Philipa Rothfield, Benjamin Woods, Wrong Solo, and other contributing artists and audiences.
