This event has been programmed by Sovay Berriman (Associate Artist) and Megan Wakefield (Researcher: PhD Spike Island/UWE) and takes place as part of Spike Open Studios 2009. This panel discussion is the first in a series of seminars exploring the spectrum of 'art writing', a term that no longer simply describes criticism, catalogue essay or document. This first debate will seek to investigate the changing trajectories of written texts as they orbit and intersect contemporary art.
