Why the best British artists leave

Chris Ofili, who left Britain to live in Trinidad. Photograph: Eamonn McCabe So here's a paradox. Constantly, the media tell us that London is this century's Manhattan or Paris, that Britain is the world's leading art capital. Yet I believe that in Manhattan in the 1960s you would actually have found artists living and working – and if Picasso had fled back to Barcelona, the Musée Picasso wouldn't have been in Paris.

Billy Name’s Archive of Warhol History May Be Lost. Architecture & Art of Illusion: Mind-Boggling Wall Mural. As your eye drifts right across the image, a strange sense of vertigo arises as a dull, familiar and repetitive gray concrete-and-glass facade gives way to a mind-blowing montage of eccentric proportions – an information overload that short-circuits our built-in mental pattern recognition software (and just imagine it at full size).

Architecture & Art of Illusion: Mind-Boggling Wall Mural

No, you have not gone insane … though you might if you look too long at this giant 10-by-40-foot wall mural by EVOL, part of an art exhibition in Paris. The little potted plants in front of the ‘building’ give you some sense of scale, but not much. The combination of rough-textured surface materials, spilled gray paint and clipped window photographs make this piece convincing even up close – except for the odd outlet sticking through here or there … or most notably: the giant crunch-point created where an existing steel ceiling beam seems to have dropped in through the roof.

Gerry Judah: Art from the ruins - Features - Art. These troglodytes, whole families of them, had fled from their own ruins in southern Lebanon – bombed by the Israelis – to seek sanctuary in bigger ruins.

They were there with their children and their grandparents, with a litter of precious pots and bowls and gas fires and damp bedding, gaunt in the winter cold as the rain guttered down the walls, sweating through the humid summers until the bulldozers came to drive them out. Beirut, 1990. Berlin 1945. The irony that in the heart of Beirut, the city's Dresden-like ruins lay along streets named after the victors of an earlier, more catastrophic war – Allenby, Clemenceau, Foch, Weygand (there was once a rue Petain) – quite eluded its new occupants. The memory of the ruins of 70 years earlier clung to the bullet-holed street signs bearing these portentous names amid a new set of ruins.

London Independent Photography 21st Annual Exhibition. This year’s exhibition will be held 19th to 31st October 2009 in Cottons Atrium, Tooley Street, London Bridge SE1 2QE.

A catalogue of all work in the exhibition IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR ORDER AT BLURB.COM The following is a preview of some selected images from the exhibition: S.M.A.K. Centre d'art contemporain. La vitesse et ses limites. La vitesse et ses limites traite de la place prépondérante qu’occupe la vitesse dans la vie moderne, dans les domaines de l’art, l’architecture, l’urbanisme, en passant par celui des arts graphiques, de l’économie et de la culture matérielle de l’ère industrielle et de celle de l’information.

La vitesse et ses limites

Elle souligne le centième anniversaire du futurisme italien, mouvement à qui l’on doit la célèbre déclaration parue dans son manifeste inaugural : « La splendeur du monde s’est enrichie d’une beauté nouvelle : la beauté de la vitesse. » Rancière, The Emancipated Spectator, 20 August 2004 (4/6) «Je ne vois pas d’opposition entre art et histoire» A Noise Within will move to Pasadena. The former Masonic Temple in downtown Glendale is an old, decrepit and some say haunted building -- a venue perhaps more suited to Hollywood horror flicks than the plays of Shakespeare, Beckett or Molière. For nearly 17 years, the nine-story structure on Brand Boulevard has served as home to the classical theater company A Noise Within.

And for most of that time, the building has lived up to its horror-movie image: Electrical blackouts, mysterious drifters and dead birds in the attic are just some of the problems that have plagued the critically acclaimed theater company during its residency. After years of looking for a more hospitable location -- and one that could accommodate its growing audience -- A Noise Within says it has secured half of the $16 million needed to build a new space in East Pasadena. A Noise Within will construct a three-floor facility at the west end of the mixed-use complex. Feud with City Council. Silent Movies. 4T fluXus - 40 ans de mouvement - 10+10+10+10=40.

You've been successful at discovering new artistic talent. But are there not always great artists who go undiscovered?

By and large, talent is in such short supply that mediocrity can be taken for brilliance rather more than genius can go undiscovered. You have been described both as a "super-collector" and as "the most successful art dealer of our times". Looking back on the past 20 years, how would you characterise your activities? Who cares what I'm described as? Charles Saatchi with his wife, the broadcaster and cookery writer Nigella Lawson. Your practice of buying emerging artists' work has proved highly contagious and is arguably the single greatest influence on the current market because so many others, both veteran collectors and new investors, are following your lead, vying to snap up the work of young, relatively unknown artists.

Frieze Foundation. Schools on the Move Thursday 17 October: 1.30pm In recent years, alternative academies and artist-led education projects have proliferated. How do these endeavours reflect on conventional art education—and what can we learn from them? Poezibao. Among the archives: A Database. Twenty years ago in California I attended, out of curiosity, a New Age convention in Los Angeles.

Among the list of lectures on UFOs and channelling, and the stalls selling crystals and the healing powers of swimming with dolphins, I spotted a talk by Dr Timothy Leary. By this time Leary, the champion of LSD, who in 1967 told 30,000 hippies in San Francisco to "Turn on, tune in, drop out", was in his late sixties. I expected an old chap in beads and kaftan, but he turned up in slacks and a cardigan, and instead of LSD enthused about a new system of global communication, built on the free supply of "information in, information out", which was going to change the world.

And he was right. Leary was one of the first people to have a site on the world wide web, and that model of a mutual exchange of information is very much with us today. Eva Hesse, Studiowork, Fruitmarket gallery, Edinburgh. Of the many shows that make this a golden year for contemporary art at the Edinburgh festival, one stands out as momentous: 50 sculptures, some never shown in public before, by American artist Eva Hesse (Studiowork, Fruitmarket Gallery, until 25 October). When the New York Times famously announced that Hesse was "at the outset of a brilliant career" in 1970, its prediction was shockingly mistaken.

Not because she had already established herself as a great sculptor by the age of 34, but because she had recently died of cancer. This anecdote is bitter proof for those who still insist upon Hesse as the Sylvia Plath of art: a refugee from the Nazis, her mother a suicide, her marriage ending in desertion just before the tumour was discovered. But the life is entirely divisible from the art, as these marvellous creations testify. Parution de "Diplopie", par Clément Chéroux. Les éditions du Point du Jour annoncent la parution de Diplopie.

Le Collège de Philosophie. ART PAPERS. A STATE FOR THE ARTS Marker 2014: Gulf Solutions for Central Asia and the Caucasus Text / Stephanie Bailey Art Dubai is the leading contemporary art fair in the MENASA—the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia—and its guest-curated section, Marker [March 19-22, 2014], is now in its fourth year of geographically themed, not-for-profit programming. The collective Slavs and Tatars made the selection for 2014, inviting art spaces from Central Asia and the Caucasus to exhibit in the United Arab Emirates. Chris Marker and the Archival Imperative: La Jetée: ciné-roman and Staring Back by Chris Marker and Chris Marker by Sarah Cooper. Chris Marker is one of those artists who resist categorisation; who resist definition.

He is an enigmatic presence, threading his way through more than six decades of 20th-century (and now 21st-century) culture, arts, and politics, but always managing to stay obscured by the shadows. He is the Wizard of Oz, hiding behind a curtain, working his magic out of the public eye. Despite his invisibility, his dislike of interviews and his aversion to being photographed, Marker is more a filmmaker of the world than most. He is a wanderer – physically and psychically – and his films have covered Finland, China, Cuba, Africa, the USSR, Japan, Chile, Israel, Vietnam, the US, Brazil, his native France and more.

He is also a wanderer among the arts. Marker’s accomplishments and curiosity are clearly obvious. Le Bleu du ciel. Www.rendezvous09.fr.
