Theatre Review at E.P.P.i.C

posted 16 May 2012 06:00 by Coterie Gallery

This month saw the latest production by the Ecclesfield Priory Players of 'Hobsons Choice' playing to a full house of  an appreciative audence.
The principal character of Henry Hobson and daughter Maggie Hobson played by Tom Travers and Angela Platts produced a excellent performance with word perfect lengthy monologes worthy of seasonal runs rather than a five day production reflecting the time and effort put into it by the players. and not forgetting the stage set team which required three different sets erection for each  of the three acts.
The reviewer is looking forward to the next production 'Down to Brass Tacks' a northern comedy from 2nd -6th October 2012
Bookings at the theatre 0114 2402624  visit www.eppictheatre.co.uk  prices £5.50 or £6.50

Studio success with student exhibition entries

posted 26 Apr 2012 04:03 by Anthony Carroll

As part of the studio remit we encourage students in participating and taking part in exhibitions. however not everyone knows what to do how to do it and all the other details connected with submitting entries for selection so in that respect assistence and guidence is given.
A point in question is the forth coming 'Great Sheffield Art Show'. several students from the studio have been taken through the process and help given where required to submit works for selection.
We are pleased to say that 7 students submitted entries and all had works accepted.
This is a huge reflection of the standard of tuition provided by our in house artist Joanne, not to forget the extra work and effort in making it happen.
We will let you know what happened after the exhibition on the 29th June and 1st July. at the Octagon in Sheffield.

"Crisis What Crisis" Exhibition at Access Space

posted 17 Jan 2012 02:24 by Anthony Carroll

Preview Friday 20th January 2012 17.30 20.00
Exhibition runs from 21st January to 28th February 2012
New exhibition at Access Space in Sheffield from Anthony is a series of paintings which forms a satirical view into the current financial crisis in which the relevant recipients are parodied with each frame relating to organisations, institutions, authority or individuals charged with its running or welfare for the benefit of the persons to whom it owes an obligation.

  The players are parodied as wooden tops, a term which may be regarded as either one of endearment taken without offence within friends, or a derogatory term to describe organisations, authority or individuals as inept, incompetent or indifferent.

  We are now having to live with the ramifications of the previous good life, yet despite these financial rivers drying up or being poured down endless black holes, individuals and organisation are still in denial by rewarding themselves for incompetence by ensuring their self interests are paramount before passing any financial remnants to the very people they were charged with serving.

  It is not the intention of the artist to dictate any views or opinions of any organisation or individuals upon the viewer, rather to provide a catalyst for the viewer to decide and lay the onus of responsibility at the feet of those whom they feel responsible.                                           

 

 

 

 

 

Preview: Friday January 20th, 2012  5.30pm - 8.00pm

 About the Artist: Anthony Carroll's present work deals with the subjectivity of the individual in conjunction with the objectivity of authority. He asks whether authority's objectivity can justify any breach in the individuals subjectivity, given that individuals as a collective whole, voluntarily give authority the right to govern.

Ecclesfield Fayre and 20x20 exhibition on 'The Moor'

posted 12 Dec 2011 07:42 by Anthony Carroll   [ updated 12 Dec 2011 07:45 ]

Saturday was a busy day for the studio by supporting Ecclesfield Secondary School Christmas Fayre by having a stand promoting the Gallery and Studio
a well attended day with students manning stands to raise funds for the school.
This was followed by rushing off the Sheffield to support the Access Spaces transfer of the 20x20 exhibition to the White Gallery at 30 The Moor in the City Centre situated between 'Argos' and 'The Works'
These premises are at the present time an empty shop in which shop window exhibitions take place thus negating empty shop windows giving a air of dereliction to  the High Street. 
More of this sort of thing please
