Abstract
The exhibition "The Thought of Stuff" was held 20/05 -11/06/2010 at the RBS Galleries, London. Curated by Andy Price & Leila Galloway, the show featured Jonathan Callan, Adam Gillam, Wayne Lucas, Jack Strange, Esmeralda Valencia, Elizabeth Rosser and Alison Wilding. The show sought to promote a refreshed cross-generational dialogue about changing relationships between studio practice and materiality in contemporary sculpture. The catalogue essay "Making-Do in Dyson's Graveyard" by Chris Mazeika explores the place of material practice in a modern technocratic society. Artist and writer Elizabeth Rosser contributed a 'performed talk' "Stuffed Pepper" at the Shipwright's Palace, Deptford, London 29/05/2010. A symposium with an invited student audience was chaired by Sam Thorne of 'Frieze' magzazine 10/06/2010. Full information is on www.mittencrab.com
