Marina Abramović and the Turner Prize
And do you fancy a trip to the RWA in Bristol with me?
Dear Gallery Companion,
A couple of things. Firstly, if you’re UK-based would you like to join me to see the Annual Open Exhibition at the RWA in Bristol on Wednesday 8 November? Martin Cody, whom many of you know from the Art Salons of old, has a work on show in the exhibition and we will be meeting at 11am for a wander around and then some coffee+cake. I’ve heard really good things about this show and I can’t wait to see it. Reply to this email if you’re up for it.
Secondly, I’ve started a private conversation space for patrons of The GC (that’s you) where we can talk about what art we’ve seen recently, share images and links to interesting stuff, and discuss ideas together. It’s kind of like a group chat or live hangout for my VIPs. You can access this space in the Substack app or through the website. I’ll be regularly posting thoughts and images, and you can jump into the discussion whenever you like. I’ve also set it up so that you can start a thread yourself.
In the chat this week I’ve shared some thoughts on the Marina Abramović exhibition at the Royal Academy in London at the moment. And
has posted about the Turner Prize exhibition at the Towner Eastbourne. Which has seeded an idea for a future podcast episode… Instructions on how to get started below.That’s all for now. Hope you’re having a great weekend!

How to get started in the Chat
To join our chat, you’ll need to go to the Substack website or download the Substack app, now available for both iOS and Android. Chats are sent via the app, not email, so turn on push notifications if you don’t want to miss conversation.
Open the app and tap the Chat icon. It looks like two bubbles in the bottom bar, and you’ll see a row for my chat inside.
That’s it! Please jump into my thread to say hello, and if you have any issues, check out Substack’s FAQ.
