Black Country Theatres and Cinemas Project Posted: 25 Jan 2011 07:09 AM PST Black Country Cinemas / Black Country Theatres Stage & Screen in South Staffordshire and the Black Country from Ned Williams Uralia Press 23 Westland Road, Wolverhampton WV3 9NZ Phone: 01902 773376 (Weekends: 0121 550 5943) Email: nedwilliams@toucansurf.com 2011 - This year's exciting book-production project Back in 1982 I produced a book called "Cinemas of the Black Country" – an A4 hardback of 232 pages which dealt fairly thoroughly with its subject matter. One prospective publisher dismissed it as "Too much material on too small a subject – appealing to only a small readership!" Despite this judgement I went ahead and produced the book independently with the help of advance orders and a loan from the Co-operative Bank. 1000 copies were produced which seemed optimistic at the time, but the book was a great success and went "out of print" fairly quickly. That book is now quite a collectors' item, which makes expensive appearances on Ebay! Meanwhile, of course, many people ask me if it is going to be made available again. This year's project is even more ambitious. I intend producing a revised updated version of "Cinemas of the Black Country" – but the project is a lot more than just that. The intention is two produce two books – one the companion of the other. The first will describe the "Theatres of the Black Country" – the second will return to the subject of cinemas. Some venues will appear in both books because they have served both functions, some will only appear in one of the books. Hopefully, as many people as possible will support the venture by buying both books, but they will be available separately. At the moment the project is at an early stage – text is being revised, production details are being worked out etc. It's not too late to add material to the books – information or photographs still very welcome! At the moment I am not clear about whether we will launch a special offer to customers who pre-order copies, or simply have a special offer available to those who come along when the book is ready – just at the time when I am having to pay the bills! However, what you can do now is let me know if you are interested in this project and would like to be kept informed of its progress. (Email addresses particularly welcome as that makes it easy to keep you informed.) If you can help with information, interest or support – please do make contact. Best Wishes Ned Williams | |||||

Woolgather Art Prize 2011 – Leeds Posted: 12 Apr 2011 08:03 AM PDT This art prize is in Leeds but I really like the sound of it and its self-funding ethos. It's on around the same time as the Liverpool art prize, I wonder if there's a train that stops at both stations. As recent graduates in the city of Leeds, we, as artists, are experiencing a situation of, no money, no tangible grasp of a creative job, not enough critical discourse for our work and no easy way of reaching a public audience. Through a belief that our city can, and hopefully wants to offer more, the Woolgather Art Prize was set up. As well as a chance to first view the work, the event opening will hold a series of live performances and music. Check out the website for the shortlisted artists' profiles including videos on how they sustain their practice and creative lifestyle. It's not Avant-Garde, It's Avant-Give Event Opening May 6th, 18:00-22:00 Dyson Chambers | |||||
