Mark Haworth-Booth has written: "Is there anything consistent to link the conceptual Arnatt who showed 20 years ago and the somewhat more grizzled character who offers his work today? For a start, yes, both artists take us on a journey downwards to the surface of the earth, and beneath that surface. Both have a perverse delight in taking things literally, being so 'down to earth' that our mouths fall open in astonishment." Mornings will be spent looking at photographs and slides which particularly throw up ideas on the nature of representation, especially photographic representation, and the way we think about photography. Keith has been keen to subvert the traditional hierarchies which separate vernacular from fine art photography, landscape from portraiture, advertising from documentary. The discussion will broaden out and become both palatable, amusing (and often volatile) by relating photography to other forms like sculpture, film and TV. If you want to understand the difference (and you should!) between Megalography and Rhopography, book now! Depending on the group and the questions that arise, Keith will focus attention by asking you to photograph in ways that may be unusual or challenging. By particular reference to his own practice at the moment of Landscape and Still Life, (including advertising), he will review the results with the aim that your own "quality of noticing" can be sharpened, modified or made more enjoyable.
