This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Skip Gallery (@skipgallery) SKIP Gallery is an ongoing collaborative artwork, created by artistic duo Baker &amp; Borowski. Their idea is to offer opportunities for artistic interventions in unexpected places, utilising a specially modified skip. Skips are part of our everyday lives, providing the means with which we voraciously dismantle and renew our urban environment. They are so prevalent that we barely notice them. They represent that which we want to jettison, to forget, and so there is a profound irony in the creation of artistic works, housed in a skip. Creatives are asked to produce site-specific pieces. The space acts as a disruptive environment to inspire discourse. It is a new type of mobile art space, presenting an alternative to the conventional routes to art, for both artists and viewers. The intention is for SKIP Gallery to develop and grow as a democratic platform for all the arts, and the modular nature of the skip means that projects are not confined by the usual limitations of a conventional creative platform.

These are monthly, with a new theme each month, and designed to offer ways in which we can best utilise our imagination, memory, and sight through exercises, discussions and guided meditations. Bookings are made through Eventbrite, with each class hosting a small group of up to ten people.   For more information on Lee Cutter and his work go to www.leecutter.com     For full line up of confirmed artists go to https://www.ministryofarts.org Email: ministryofartsorg@gmail.com Social Media: @ministryofartsorg

Jackson Superhero

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Author Darren Garwood (@jacksonsuperhero1)   Darren Garwood is a children’s storybook author that created a Superhero character named after his Son Jackson.   Jackson Superhero might not be a real name, but it is a story about a real boy, and as the name suggests, Jackson is far from ordinary.   By day, a rare disease limits his ability to move freely, but at night he is far from grounded. When the sleeping hours come around, and weightlessness takes over, Jackson takes to the skies. He knows what it means to need the support of others, which is why when he hears a call for help, he is quickly there to lend a hand.   For more information on the work of Darren Garwood go to www.jacksonsuperhero.com   For full line up of confirmed artists go to https://www.ministryofarts.org Email: ministryofartsorg@gmail.com Social Media: @ministryofartsorg

Jackson Superhero – MoA Bonus Episode

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to David Henty (@davidhenty_art)     “He has painted more Lowery’s that Lowery”   David’s history as an artist started, appropriately enough, with a short stint in HM Prison for forgery in the mid-1990s. It was while serving the sentence that David was inspired to start painting after being seduced by the stories of the artists he’d study. Fascinated by their technical genius, he became more and more interested in attaining a level of expertise and being ‘connected’ to the very psyche of the artists. Before long he taught himself, through rigorous preparation and a wholly immersive research process, the art of copying and flawless reproduction. Wherever possible, even sourcing the same materials, pigments, brushes, canvases and boards staying true to the period.   Today, David Henty is considered the best copyist artist in the world. His work is meticulously and lovingly recreated to the finest detail, having honed his craft over 25 years to now master the techniques and nuances of some of history’s most iconic artists, his work has fooled scientists and art critics alike, being practically indiscernible from originals of such artworks by Amedeo Modigliani, Pablo Picasso, LS Lowry, Caravaggio, Leonardo Da Vinci, Vincent Van Gogh, Claude Monet, Jean Michel Basquiat, Rene Magritte, John Singer Sargent and the list goes on.   For more information on David and his work go to www.davidhentyart.co.uk     For full line up of confirmed artists go to https://www.ministryofarts.org Email: ministryofartsorg@gmail.com Social Media: @ministryofartsorg

Dale Grimshaw

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Dale Grimshaw (@dale_grimshaw)   Dale Grimshaw was born in Lancashire, in the North of England. During a difficult childhood, his drawing and painting became extremely important to him. He developed his skills at college, firstly with an Art Foundation course at Blackburn College and later he studied fine art to degree level at Middlesex University in London.   Dale has a successful gallery career. He has had five solo shows in Signal Gallery, London and numerous group shows including those Berlin, Paris, New York, Stockholm and Rome. His shows have been widely recognised in the press and online. Articles written about have been published in The independent newspaper, Juxtapoz magazine and Art Of England Magazine.   More recently he has been devoting time to street murals and has been widely recognised as one of the most powerful and talented of street artists on that scene. Over the past five years he has been invited to festivals nationally and internationally as well as painting many iconic walls across London, where he lives.   Dale’s work is boldly figurative and is inspired by his strongly held humanitarian beliefs. However, this political message is always achieved by an emphasis on powerful direct emotions and a deep empathy for his subjects.   Dale continues to support the work of the Free West Papua campaign, which is opposed to the illegal occupation of West Papua by Indonesia.

Eliza Hopewell

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Koestler Arts (@elizahopewell)   Often described as an unapologetic artist, Eliza Hopewell went from artistic business idea to successful artist in a matter of weeks. An article in Vogue Magazine, on her [Matisse inspired] loose style of drawing and painting portraits on regular dinner plates, would have people queuing to place a commission.   Moving away from commissions, Eliza started to place more of her own identity into her work. Her paintings celebrated the female form, whilst mixing perfect quantities of humour and political stance, giving her work optimum mass appeal without diluting her message. Painting plates has now become a rarity, as Eliza is experimenting with textile and furniture design and leaving her options open for what the future holds.

Alex May

In this episode Gary Mansfield talks to Sign painter Alex May Hughes (@alexmayhughes). Alex Discovered Sign Painting after wanting to revisit a project she had undertaken on her graphic design degree involving typography, by chance her local art shop was running a sign painting workshop and the rest is history. Alex worked from home and would post her finished pieces online, while still working in retail to pay the bills. Being a life-long fan of the Simpsons, she used them as the subject in one piece, substituting their yellow skin for gold leaf. It sold immediately when posted online and they have been a huge part of her career ever since. Her smaller, more intimate pieces are now in such demand, she rarely works outside of her studio, only to occasionally assist fellow sign painters on larger jobs.

Ep.57 Christmas Podcast Crossover Special Edition

In this episode Gary Mansfield Speaks to Josh Raz (@joshua_raz)   Josh Raz perfectly combines two opposing methods of creating a painting.  The figurative lures in the eye of the viewer, only to be diverted by the abstract.  Never allowing the eye to rest, it is lead through a collage of brushstrokes left by the artist, generating a visual sense of uncertainty. That ‘visual sense of uncertainty’ is found among other works in Beyond Borders, a group show at Unit London that “Seeks to demonstrate that the expression of contrasting attitudes is not necessarily a cause for conflict”.

Ep.70 Unskilled Worker – Ministry of Arts Podcast   This week Gary Mansfield speaks Helen Downie aka Unskilled Worker (@unskilledworker)   Helen is a self-taught artist and has been painting for just seven years, in that short time, she has amassed over 280,000 Instagram followers, under the Moniker Unskilled Worker and has become one of the country’s most sought after painters. Helen wanted her Unskilled Worker to be anonymous, sexless, ageless and colourless.  She wanted it to be anyone.  As her popularity grew, as did the viewer’s curiosity as to whom this person was, that created such stand-alone artwork.  To Helen’s amusement, the most popular belief was that it was a 24 year old male behind this name.   This podcast was recorded via the video meeting app, ZOOM; during social distancing, using the built-in software.

Right now, billions of neurons in your brain are working together to generate a conscious experience -- and not just any conscious experience, your experience of the world around you and of yourself within it. How does this happen? According to neuroscientist Anil Seth, we're all hallucinating all the time; when we agree about our hallucinations, we call it "reality." Join Seth for a delightfully disorienting talk that may leave you questioning the very nature of your existence.
