All look good to me, will add them.

Maybe this thread should be called something along the lines of "gallery chat 2009" or is that too much commitment?

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Sun Dec 28, 2008 10:30 pm

maybe !

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

though there is a certain charm to discussing december shows in the september thread.

maybe there is such a thing as too much transparency...

David Mueller would like to install Sunday 15/02/2009 Will Sarah's show be down by then to allow this?

Also- David Mueller closing party- 28/02/2009 7pm...

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Tue Jan 27, 2009 10:19 pm

16th Feb- 1st Mar David Mueller (Stephen) the cafe will be closed on Sat 21st & Sun 22nd Feb , i would think we want nothing to be in gallery whist important maintenance is done .

we could let sarahs run for longer ,till the 20th then put everyone back a slot . or put david mueller in the 16th-29th Mar slot. it probably easer to just to move one show .

for what i know this is our only disruption , hope ive worked this out right .

martin

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

are we sure this is strictly neccessary?

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Wed Jan 28, 2009 1:18 pm

well its hard to know what they are going to .

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

lets ask lynne to check with the electrician whether it is necessary to take everything out of gallery. i think it is unlikely. moving the dates around always makes me nervous. would be better to leave it as it is. we have a lovely big window for people to look through while cafe shut to admire work. we could always store it in a balcony space as cafe is shut anyway.

i will ask sarah if is ok for her to take work down early ish on sunday to allow for david .

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

i've asked david whether he would be able to reschedule and he seems fine with it- maybe it would be better to be safe than sorry.

Best thing would be just to move his show entirely and extend sarah's but this would leave a week gap probably?

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

ok, shall i let sarah know that we are extending her show then?
we could use that week to get floor done, paint walls with that fire retardant paint etc...shut it off for the week

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

It is going to be neccessary to have the gallery empty on the 21st and 22nd of Feb so i think the best plan is as above: ask sarah to extend to 20th and ask David to reschedule to next available slot.

Agree?

16th-29th Mar TK7 is the next available slot- has this been offered to anyone yet- Mike?

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Tue Feb 03, 2009 8:07 pm

i agree

martin

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

will let sarah know
guess there is possibility that she may not be able to take down show on the friday as she's not local
will see what she says

emi · **Posted:** Wed Feb 04, 2009 5:53 pm

13th to 26th of April. San Whittaker

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

I've updated the gallery calander and am seeking confirmation for the Mueller move.

Emi won't be here for when Sean Whittaker is showing

correct? does any one want to volunteer?

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

so the first slot in march is already filled, i have now offered David 30th mar -12th apr.

Looks like we are happy for Lottie and Lindsay to show for the second half of Peter Williams show.

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

so ages and ages ago i contacted mike steven about having a show
he did not get back in touch...or so it seemed! it just got lost in haze of tk e mails
i said we could offer him another show but we are booked up til june now
can i offer him the next slot in june? i feel we should as we missed the e mail
it was for an installation piece
what says everyone?

also i am happy to be link person for sean wittaker but i won't be around for the 13th to help him set up. it will bank holiday easter monday. but as long as he knows ropes before hand it should be fine

melanie · **Joined:** Thu Nov 06, 2008 8:26 pm **Posts:** 6

I can be the contact person for Sean Whittaker if necessary, as I'll be in Edinburgh all of April.

cool-Emi should have the details...

Is Mike Steven the guy who wanted to do the CCTV installation? I say if we have already offered him a show, he should just get the next available slot.

michaelbowdidge · **Posted:** Thu Feb 12, 2009 12:36 am

in a similar vein, Nick Chate (tattoo show) has also just surfaced, a bit peeved that he isn't showing 2nd- 16th March. Whilst it's true that he never replied to my last email and responded to my questions re changeovers and walls I probably should have let him know that we had dropped the show (my bad). He still wants to do it, so I have offered him the choice of the 4 slots left before august, with the proviso that the first slot might be gone (to Mike Stevens/CCTV show).

Does that sound ok? Will get him firmed up asap.

Simone, have you heard from Mike Stevens yet, does he want that slot?

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

will let you know when i have heard
away til end of next
sounds fine to give that guy a show too
i think they just assume we give them slots without confirmation from them...crazy!

michaelbowdidge · **Posted:** Thu Feb 19, 2009 2:58 pm

Nick Chate (tattoo show) now confirmed for 22nd June- 5th July TK14.

Please can you amend the gallery calender Stephen?

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Fri Feb 20, 2009 6:28 am

mike do you want amending powers ?

its seem silly that only me and steve can do this .

martin

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

mike stevens has confirmed for the slot 6-19th july
wow so near the festival

michaelbowdidge · **Posted:** Sun Feb 22, 2009 2:10 am

Erm.... i dunno, is it complicated or involve secret handshakes?

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Mon Apr 20, 2009 9:37 am

ok , we have an empty gallery , the current show has had problems . am gonna try and get the next show to start earlier but i dont think they will , but i will try.

it could be someone could sand the floor , do the skirting boards or anything else that need doing . i dont have a lot of time at the moment .

because of the circumstances the current show has not been shown , of which i dont want to go into here . we should offer the artist the tk13 slot , what does the team think

martin

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

sounds good

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

yes offer him the tk13 if he wants it

stephengoodall · **Joined:** Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:29 pm **Posts:** 817

wait a minute though- was mirja looking to use that slot for suitcase series?

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Mon Apr 20, 2009 10:20 pm

maybe steve ,

martin

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Tue Apr 21, 2009 10:23 am

dia may use the gallery untill friday , then the next show is gonna hang on friday . we will deal will the other stuff in due course

martin

mirja · **Joined:** Thu Oct 30, 2008 9:23 pm **Posts:** 820

HI guys,
not having the suitcase stuff there untill TK20, thats the only thing scheduled for Suitcase series at the moment.
Will be glad to schedule some more in in the next meeting.

so TK13 could be fine for the current no-show.

alternatively - that time would be ideal for me to work on the floor of the gallery. I cannot do TK16 apparently, I have to go to Finland to sort some stuff.
Just a thought.

simone · **Joined:** Wed Mar 19, 2008 11:47 am **Posts:** 896

i'm not here next week for the meeting
sorry guys
hope it is not too stressful
