*periphery
Edited by Aaron Juneau, Jonathan Watts and Harriet Mitchell
YH485 Press, September 2009
Limited to 1000 copies with 50 copies reserved to hold fish and chips in the borough of Great Yarmouth.
This was the first major collaborative publication by YH485 Press who have been working with London based curatorial initiative gymnasium to realise *periphery.
The collaboration is the result of Project Gymnasium initiated for the annual Out There Festival in the seaside town of Great Yarmouth for which three local artists were commissioned to produce moving image works responding to their locale.
The resulting vidoes were shown on a large screen situated along the 'Golden Mile' on Great Yarmouth's seafront. Rather than produce a catalogue relating to these works, gymnasium had in mind a newspaper that would bring together voices from diverse disciplines on one common theme - 'periphery'
Each artist was invited to include an image and text relating to their view of 'periphery.
The limited edition was available from the YH485 Press website and as a 'support' to eat chips out of during September that year!
The publication was be available to buy for £2.00 (free P and P) from the YH485 Press website. There was also be an online version, with extra contributions, availalbe to download from the publications section at YH485 Press.
