On the 19th
of November a group of 1st year interactive arts students
from the Manchester School of Art are holding a special one night
exhibition at the Salutation Pub on the MMU campus.
The school of art has
within its walls a unique visual resource that's existence is
currently threatened. The
Visual Resources Centre is a library of images in slide format
that chronicle the history of the school of art, the history of
Manchester and anything else you could imagine.
For a taste of the
unique imagery please visit the flikr
page here
Students for across the
art school are producing work in response to the imagery in the
archive and there will also be slideshow presentations of course.
Please come along to this public event for the chance to check out
some really inspiring work and some images you will quite likely
never otherwise get the chance to see while supporting our efforts to
save this resource for the future students and people of Manchester
and the world.
We will be holding
monthly themed short presentations and talks of no more than half an
hour, if you are interested in being one of our guest presenters then
please get in touch here saveourslides@gmail.com
