Free exhibition showcases work of Fine Art lecturers
Fine Art staff at the University of Chichester are hosting INDEXICAL, a two-week art exhibition at the Bognor Regis campus.
Work by Elizabeth Colley, Zeljko Ivanković, Christopher McHugh, Matt O’Dell, Tim Sandys-Renton, Andrea Vassallo and Anne White is on display.
The exhibition opens to the public on Friday 6 September and runs to Saturday 14 September. Entry is free but viewing is by appointment only on weekdays, from 9.30am to 4pm (email h.nichols@chi.ac.uk or call 01243 816253).
‘Meet the Artists’ on Saturday 7 and 14 September from 12 noon to 4pm – no need to book.
Or come to the ‘Panel Discussion’ on Thursday 12 September from 6.30pm to 7.30pm. To book a place email h.nichols@chi.ac.uk or call 01243 816253.
The exhibition and all events are free.
Tim Sandys-Renton, Senior Lecturer in Fine Art, said: “The title ‘indexical’ comes from our interest in semiotics – the way signs work. It’s really about the way things signal themselves by leaving a perceptible trace on the world. Like the way smoke signals the presence of fire, even if you can’t see it…. Many of the exhibits in the show have a strong presence because of the way the idea has left an impression on the materiality of the work. Despite the academic chat, we think the works on view embody the qualities that make for interesting art – approachable, varied and committed.”
The exhibition is in the Fine Art Studios in St Michael’s House on the Bognor Regis campus (PO21 1HR).
You can park in the University car park off Felpham Way with the Pay-By-Phone app, or park at nearby Hotham Park car park which is free after 6pm.
