HAVE YOU NOTHING BETTER TO BE DOING?

WHO OWNS AN ARTIST’S ART?

WHO WANTS TO OWN AN ARTIST’S ART?

WHY DO THEY WANT TO OWN AN ARTIST’S ART?

WHO DO ARTISTS WANT TO OWN THEIR ART?

WHO OWNS YOU? AND WHO OWNS ME?

OR MAYBE NOT

These questions are part of an ongoing conversation in the arts and what -if anything- they are for. If this ongoing dialogue (or do I mean debate?) is -as the pundits say “out there in the culture”- then perhaps here, in Historic Carlisle we should be joining in with it and exercising hearts and minds -just a little bit- about such questions and their implications for us locally and globally.

PS Caroline Dalton, you’ll see her work on display on the cathedral lawn- hosted a dead interesting Empty Shops Symposium at the Methodist Hall on Wednesday. It was asking similar questions about our streets. Check out The Space Makers Network -Google it, links are for wimps- if you’re interested in finding out more. And come down the Methodiist Hall and see what could become of it.

And Hey, did you see young Cillian Sweeney in his first starring role in the trailer to “Carlisle Dreams” on You Tube? Real star quality. Good work from wardrobe too. I don’t know who knitted his cardigan but it’s a beauty.
