Olivia Glasser | Suite 2, Corridor project space | 10 July- 7 August
Based in Manchester, Olivia graduated from BA Interactive Arts at Manchester School of Art in 2010. Since, she has worked as Assistant Curator at Nida Art Colony, Lithuania, received a film commission from Castlefield Gallery for artplayer.tv, exhibited at galleries from Chinese Arts Centre, Manchester to the Hangar, Barcelona and recently completed a research residency at Lionel Dobie Project.
“Investigating lifestyle choices of the artist / curator and the city / countryside’s influence on this, my current work is a series of experiments in and around this, often working collaboratively. Playing with action, aesthetics and use of the city as a member of a new DIY dance group, we will be using the Penthouse as a dance studio and base.
Hosting 2 film screenings, I hope to continue with a method I have accidentally / informally arrived at in my practice, of anchoring research and thoughts in new directions once reframed by a given piece of work, in this case a shared film, accompanied by sunset views courtesy of Manchester’s skyline and the Penthouse’s corridor. ”
