New Art Exchange Open | Contemporary art competition in Nottingham | British arts open |
NAE OPEN
AWARDS CEREMONY
Friday 23 August 2019, 6pm – 9pm
Enjoy a huge variety of art at NAE this summer, with works in painting, drawing, video, live art, sculpture, installation and mixed media by over 50 artists.
The NAE Open was created through an open application process which received nearly 700 submissions. A panel of judges viewed each to select what they felt to be the most innovative and accomplished works, creating a snapshot of contemporary fine art practice today.
Given NAE's key priorities in supporting both culturally diverse and local talent, the exhibition was open to all artists living in Nottinghamshire and also to artists of culturally diverse heritage and those exploring diversity within their
practice living anywhere in the UK.
A key aim of the NAE Open is to create a platform which supports the development of artists and raises their profile. Beyond the public exhibition itself, a number of prizes will be awarded in a special ceremony on Friday 23 August. These include the £1,500 Public Choice Prize, which every visitor to the exhibition can contribute to. Be sure to cast your vote when you visit the galleries – voting closes Thursday 22 August 2019. The NAE Open also creates the opportunity to buy original art with a number of works available for sale.

Artist, John Akomfrah, in conversation with Skinder Hundal and Jenny Waldman
NEW ART EXCHANGE CO-COMMISSION MAJOR NEW FILM TO REMEMBER THE FORGOTTEN MILLIONS OF AFRICAN SOLDIERS FROM WORLD WAR I
22 JANUARY 2018
Today a major new commission by the filmmaker and artist John Akomfrah has been announced. The film will remember the millions of Africans who fought as soldiers or served as porters during the First World War. It has been commissioned in partnership with 14-18 NOW, the UK's arts programme for the First World War centenary, New Art Exchange, Nottingham, and Smoking Dogs Films.
Combining mixed archival sources with newly filmed material, artistic reflections and tableaux reconstructions, this ground-breaking work by one of the UK's most celebrated filmmakers reveals how the conflict shaped the recent history of Africa and the lives of its inhabitants.
In 1914, both Britain and Germany controlled vast territories on the continent. African men were enlisted to fight alongside Europeans on both sides, supported by an army of porters responsible for transporting food and equipment. Of the 100,000 deaths among British forces during the East Africa campaign, 90 per cent were porters and 45,000 came from Kenya alone.
Projected onto three screens, African Soldier tells a story of vast scope and enormous courage. In doing so it commemorates and celebrates the African men and women whose suffering has been neglected for too long.
The film will first be shown at the Imperial War Museum, London, in September 2018 before being presented at New Art Exchange in autumn 2019. It will feature amongst a major season dedicated to artists from the African continent and those whose heritage emanates from the region.
African Solider and the wider African season at New Art Exchange have been made possible through the organisations' recently awarded Ambitions for Excellence grant from Arts Council England. This highly sought-after fund will allow New Art Exchange to lead an innovative international programme to create and strengthen existing relationships between arts ecologies of the Midlands, UK and Africa. Involving UK and international partners, the project will unlock and seek to understand the impact of colonialism and its residue within Africa and among the British African diaspora communities the UK.
John Akomfrah said: It is a huge privilege to be able to bring to light some of the histories that have been untold for so long and to remember the many millions of Africans that fought or served in the First World War. As an organisation that places diversity at its core, I am thrilled to be working with New Art Exchange to bring this internationally important work to Nottingham in 2019.
Skinder Hundal – CEO, New Art Exchange said: This is a pioneering moment for how we connect and collaborate with artists and audiences in Nottingham, Africa and the UK. Taking African Solider by John Akomfrah as inspiration for our wider international project we hope to bring new perspectives on the value of diversity in the production of art and representation of minority cultures.
New Art Exchange first supported John Akomfrah's practice in 2012 when we co-commissioning The Unfinished Conversation which explored the influential cultural theorist, Stuart Hall. This powerful piece had considerable impact on the culturally diverse audiences that visit New Art Exchange, so we are delighted to be supporting the artist with what we anticipate to be yet another seminal work.
Peter Knott, Area Director, Arts Council England, said: We're delighted to be investing in New Art Exchange's ambitious plans to tell the untold stories of African soldiers and communities which promises to touch the lives of all those involved, locally, nationally and internationally. At the heart of our Creative Case for Diversity is the ambition to celebrate all of the artistic talents England is home to and New Art Exchange share that vision too.
Jenny Waldman, Director of 14-18 NOW, said
John Akomfrah's new work will be a powerful way to remind people of the huge contribution that soldiers from Africa made to the First World War, and will connect today's audiences to the history and sacrifices made by those who lived it 100 years ago. This commission is a highlight of our final 14-18 NOW season, in which we continue to engage audiences in the centenary through the lens of art.

The KLF's mysterious return | #AdpRiotTour
The KLF return? - 27 years ago I regularly listened to a British stadium house band called The KLF (Jimmy Cauty and Bill Drummond). But within a couple of years of finding out about this group and enjoying their music they quit the music business and disappeared. But every few years I discover new KLF related projects, some hidden, some right in front of me. This week one arrived in my local town in a huge shipping container that I could not help but notice. Press PLAY to find out how I got on…

Thursday Live Lectures: Duncan Campbell
2014 Turner Prize winner Duncan Campbell gave a talk at Nottingham Trent University on 09 Dec 2010 as part of the Live Lecture Series. He discussed his film Bernadette, which was shown as part of British Art Show 7 in Nottingham.
Campbell's film is a portrait of Bernadette Devlin, the fiery republican Mid Ulster MP from 1969 to 1974 – the youngest woman ever elected to the British Parliament. The film was compiled from historical documentary footage. It explores the seductive power of storytelling and the limitations of historical representation.
Thursday Live Lectures were a series of free seminars by the British Art Show 7 curators and a selection of artists included in the exhibition. The Thursday Live Lectures were presented in collaboration with Nottingham Contemporary, New Art Exchange and Nottingham Castle, the Fine Art course at Nottingham Trent University.
