| Bennett Miller Dachshund U.N., 31 March Posted: 17 Feb 2012 02:30 AM PST 31 March - Theatre at Oozells SquareBennett Miller's Dachshund U.N. is both a large scale architectural installation and a performance work that examines the role of the United Nations as a risk management organisation. A scale replica of the former U.N. office in Geneva, Switzerland, will be erected outside Ikon and on Saturday 31 March this structure plays host to a unique meeting of the U.N.'s Commission on Human Rights, at which all 47of the international delegates are live dachshunds, or 'sausage dogs'. Dachshunds are the only type of dog to have a 'racial variety' within the breed – there are smooth, long haired and wire haired dachshunds in all sorts of diferent colours. Dachshund U.N. is a playful and chaotic experiment; a meditation on the utopian aspirations of the Commission on Human Rights, and our capacity as humans to imagine and achieve a universal system of justice. |

Richard Taws reveals the Revolution's role in spurring on further technological transformations, fuelled by a desire to spread revolutionary ideals over great distance at high speed. He also faces the conundrum at the heart of this - how to justify universal rights internationally, while also profiting from an economy of slavery?

In Jubilee, Queen Elizabeth I is transported to a bleak, broken Britain - where violence and anarchy reign and Buckingham Palace is a recording studio for punk musicians. Serving to upset and unnerve the conventional cinemagoer, Jubilee defines the confrontational abandon of punk cinema.

| Maria Ruido introduces Amphibious Fictions Posted: 27 Mar 2012 09:54 PM PDT When: Thursday, June 14, 2012 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM (GMT) Where: Nottingham Contemporary Weekday Cross NG1 2GB Nottingham United Kingdom Hosted By: Nottingham Contemporary Register for this event now at : http://ncamphibiousfictions-atom.eventbrite.com Event Details: Artist and researcher María Ruido's documentary essay Amphibious Fictions focuses on two Spanish cities in the industrial belt surrounding Barcelona. Ruido researched the social, economic, and emotional changes produced by new conditions imposed on the traditional textile sector, focusing particularly on the lives of female factory workers. A post-screening discussion will situate this film in relation to a global process - the shift from centralised factory production to systems of flexible, information-based labour - while also considering the specificity of the Spanish context where critical responses to economic change have been sustained by artists and researchers such as Ruido and Morandeira, together with activist collectives, notably the Precarias a la Deriva (Precarious Female Workers Adrift) group, with whom Ruido has collaborated.
