Air Print for Contentores/Containers, 2012<br />
Miguel Palma<br />
Inside a transformed container, air is<br />
sucked in and dust particles are filtered<br />
onto a cloth. The result is an imprint<br />
recorded over a week and then displayed<br />
in the exhibition space. In this work the<br />
natural and artificial worlds co-exist:<br />
a filtering machine becomes a kind of<br />
mechanical lung. Curated by Luisa Santos /<br />

Makhachkala<br />
Topography of Masculinity<br />
Taus Makhacheva<br />
The three video installations focus on<br />
acts of daily life that prevent permanent<br />
social settlement. The artist has chosen<br />
to develop this problem in the context<br />
of her native Russian Caucasus, a region<br />
marked by social instability. Three different<br />
communities are characterised by their<br />
impenetrability and revolve around specific<br />
social and cultural practices, such as dog<br />
fighting and illegal street car racing.<br />

North Atlantic Pavilion<br />
Hanni Bjartalíð, Sigurður Guðjónsson,<br />
Jessie Kleemann<br />
The North Atlantic Pavilion dissects the<br />
tensions at play when simultaneously<br />
embracing a strong national and regional<br />

and hegemonic norms of hospitality.<br />

Masha Godovannaya<br />
Sound: Dmitri Kakhovskiy<br />

installation. It explores the idea of multiple<br />
and infinite worlds within human existence,<br />
whilst investigating the notion of hidden<br />
hospitality in a public space.<br />

Black Pillow<br />
Audrius Bučas & Valdas Ozarinskas<br />
Black Pillow is a collaborative project by<br />
two Lithuanian architects and artists,<br />
Audrius Bučas & Valdas Ozarinskas. The<br />
project includes one main object – a<br />
huge inflatable black pillow. Impossible<br />
to be grasped in its entirety, the black<br />
pillow leaves spectators wondering about<br />
its real size, shape and other material<br />
qualities. Curated and organised by Ke¸stutis Kuizinas,<br />

Wellington<br />
Watermarking<br />
David Bennewith, William Hsu,<br />
Marnie Slater<br />
Departing from the geographical and<br />
sociopolitical histories of Wellington, David<br />
Bennewith, William Hsu and Marnie Slater<br />
bring together their shared conceptual<br />
sensibilities to extend connections to<br />
the port city of <strong>Liverpool</strong> through acts of<br />
outsourcing and assemblage. Notions of<br />
distance, journeys between ports and the<br />
oceans between inform and encapsulate<br />
the work that takes form as printed matter.<br />
Curated and organised by Melanie Oliver and Laura<br />

and The Chartwell Trust<br />
<strong>Column</strong> is a vertical, spinning, ascending<br />
column of cloud that rises into the sky from<br />
the surface of East Float, Wirral Waters,<br />
on the edge of the Mersey directly opposite<br />
the City of <strong>Liverpool</strong>. The sculpture<br />
ascends to and beyond the cloud base<br />
and disappears and reappears, in response<br />
to weather and light conditions.<br />
<strong>Column</strong> was commissioned by<br />
Arts Council England as part of Artists<br />
Taking the Lead, Arts Council England’s<br />
flagship project for the London 2012<br />
Cultural Olympiad.<br />
