**********************************************************************************

After studying fine art at Birmingham College of Art, Ian began his career as an animator. His award winning

experimental film French Windows (1972), brought him to the attention of Pink Floyd who commissioned him to

direct their first animated concert film The Dark Side of the Moon (1974), which includes the legendary Time

sequence. Ian also acted as advisor on The Wall, while creating other works such as Tubular Bells for Mike

Oldfield (1975) and the iconic Oriental Nightfish for Paul and Linda McCartney (Palm D'Or nomination

During this period Ian made numerous other experimental films such as The Beard (Berlin 1980), and The Box of

Delights (BBC 1984). His London studio gained a reputation for ground breaking visuals and he was cited as the

foremost British animator of the eighties, winning accolades around the world. In 1982 his achievements were

celebrated in a retrospective at the National Film Theatre. Ian then diversified into live-action, writing and

directing short films, amongst them Goodie Two Shoes, (produced by Jeff Katzenberg for Paramount Pictures,

receiving a British Academy Award and Oscar Nomination, 1983). Music videos include the ‘masterpiece’ The

Chauffeur (Duran Duran 1982), and The Wall – Live in Berlin (Roger Waters, starring Rupert Everett and

Marianne Faithful, 1990). He has directed numerous award-winning commercials for Ridley Scott Associates.

Television series include the cult How to Be Cool (starring Roger Daltrey, adapted by Ian from the novel by

Phillip Pullman, 1989), Streetwise (starring Andy Serkis 1989), Buddy Faro (starring Dennis Farina, NBC, 1992),

The Invisible Man (Universal, 2000), Sir Gadabout (starring Tamsin Egerton, produced by Linda James and Lucy

Goodman, receiving a British Academy Award Nomination and INDIE Awards Best Children’s Programme, 2002).

Matt Calderwood's art practice uses video, geometric sculpture, printmaking, photograms and the readymade.

Risk taking and a conceptual intelligence run through the work and ‘a matter of factness’ is evident in his

handling and choice of materials. These choices are often put under stress and made precarious provoking

humour, stress points and delicacy in the process; all are present in the work plus a blunt undermining of

various modernist tendencies; most recently seen in the De La Warr pavillion show, Exposure.

///// Richard Wilson

THURSDAY 4th February 17.00-19.00 EB.2.43

**********************************************************************************Born in Islington, London, Richard Wilson studied at the London College of Printing, Hornsey College of Art and

Reading University. He was the DAAD resident in Berlin in 1992, Maeda Visiting Artist at the Architectural

Association in 1998 and nominated for the Turner Prize in both 1988 (when Tony Cragg won) and 1989 (when

Richard Long won).

Wilson's first solo show was 11 Pieces, at the Coracle Press Gallery in London in 1976. Since then he has had at

least 50 solo exhibitions around the world. Wilson's work is characterised by architectural concerns with

volume, illusionary spaces and auditory perception. His most famous work 20:50, a room of specific

proportions, part-filled with highly reflective used sump oil creating an illusion of the room turned upside down

was first exhibited at Matt's Gallery, London in 1987, became one of the signature pieces of the Saatchi Gallery.

It is considered to be a defining work in the genre of site-specific installation art. The same year the temporary

(May–June) installation One Piece at a Time filled the south tower of the Tyne Bridge at Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

In the 1990s and 21st century, Wilson has continued to work on a large scale to fulfil his ambitions to "tweak or

undo or change the interiors of space... in that way unsettle or break peoples preconceptions of space, what

they think space might be", including an installation near London's Millennium Dome called A Slice of Reality in

2000. It consisted of a portion (15%) of a ship being sliced off from the rest and mounted on the river bed. In

2007, Wilson installed Turning the Place Over in a building in Liverpool's city centre. Described by Liverpool

Biennial organisers as his "most radical intervention into architecture to date", Wilson cut an 8-metre diameter

disc from the walls and windows of the building, and attached it to a motor which literally turned this section of

the building inside out, in a cycle lasting just over two minutes. It was switched off in 2011. In 2009, Wilson's

architectural intervention, Square the Block, was installed on the northwest exterior of LSE's New Academic

Building at the corner of Kingsway and Sardinia Street. Commissioned by London School of Economics and

curated by the Contemporary Art Society, Square the Block is a spectacular outdoor sculpture that both mimics

and subtly subverts the existing façade of the building. In 2012 the installation Hang On A Minute Lads, I’ve Got

a Great Idea recreated the closing scene of the film The Italian Job on the roof of the De La Warr Pavilion,

Bexhill-on-Sea.

Wilson recently opened Slipstream, installed in the rebuilt Terminal 2 building at Heathrow airport. The longest

piece of permanent art it spans 80 metres and weighs 77 tonnes. It is the largest privately funded sculpture in

Europe costing £2.5m to build.
