Creative Venue Technician Apprenticeship

Kim Byford, Project Director for Talent Accelerator at DLWP has been working with the East Sussex College Group to look at ways to support young people into the Creative Industries across the region.

The forefront of this has been a focus on how we support our live venues to find and train young people to fill their technical roles, which has been a struggle across the industry. To respond to this, we are looking at ways to work together to deliver a Creative Venue Technician Apprenticeship using the expertise of the brilliant technical team here at the De La Warr Pavilion. This programme will grow technical staff members who will be fully trained for the venue they are working in and able to move our venues forward.

The next step is to find more venues across the county who would be interested in having an apprentice join their team. Are you a creative venue, does this apprentice programme sound of interest to you? If so, and you’d like to have a chat about having an Creative Venue Technician Apprentice in your team then please contact Kim Byford kim.byford@dlwp.com

Warpaint – Champion

Auditorium works to start January 2015

The De La Warr Pavilion is delighted to announce that work will begin to replace the air handling systems in the auditorium in January 2015.

The Pavilion secured £412,343 in July from Arts Council England for this work, which is essential for the on-going viability of presenting events in the auditorium and for the comfort of our audiences. The capital project, of £500,000 in total, is also supported by the Foyle Foundation, private donations from individuals including our Patron Eddie Izzard and from funds designated by Rother District Council, as part of our funding agreement.

The scaffolding will go up on the week of the 15th December and contractors will be on site from Monday 5 January.

We anticipate the work will be completed by the end of February and existing events already advertised in the auditorium will not be affected.

This work marks a new era in the refurbishment programme of the Pavilion under the director Stewart Drew. It has been ten years since we re-opened after the £9million capital project and since then we have welcomed over 3 million visitors to the building. This number of people and the seaside climate has taken its toll on the building and we are looking at celebrating our 80th anniversary in 2015 with the launch of a strategic programme of works over the next few years.

The Pavilion will be actively seeking funds for this programme from Trusts, Foundations and supportive individuals. If you are interested in supporting us, you can become a member or patron of the Pavilion and play a part in its future.

The Big Draw at The De La Warr Pavilion by Matilda Eldon

The Big Draw was a wonderful family event, a creative opportunity for both children and parents. The theme was looking into the future and how we would see ourselves. Families worked together on large tables where black pens and card was provided. The card had different images printed on top, the outline of a tree, car, city building, people and a house, you could decorate and draw your future visions onto the card templates, the images created where expressive and imaginative. The best part was being able to transform these drawings into 3D and presenting them on the stage. It was an incredible sight seeing the public then transfer these drawings and ideas onto larger 3D sculptures that stood in the centre of the room. Classical and retro music played as a master piece in the making evolved, these large white sculptures gradually become an inspired story of drawing, communal gathering and imagination.

Coastal Culture Trail, East Sussex 18-20 October 2013

The De La Warr Pavilion, Jerwood Gallery, and Towner – three of the most exciting visual arts galleries in the UK – have joined forces to create a cultural trail which promises a fabulous weekend of great art, great food and the great outdoors. The three award-winning galleries share a stunning 20 mile stretch of East Sussex coastline, which – less than 90 minutes from London – is the perfect destination for a weekend getaway.
Following the success of the launch of the Coastal Culture Trail in June this year, the galleries will be running a second autumn Coastal Culture Trail from the 18-20 October, during which there will be a variety of special events taking place across the three galleries. Below is a suggested itinerary; however, visitors are encouraged to create their own itineraries from the ‘What’s On?’ section.

Friday 18 October
Spend the evening at the Jerwood Gallery, Hastings for a night of art and gourmet food. Exclusive after-hours access to the galleries will allow visitors to browse the permanent collection of 20th and 21st century British art, as well as the exhibition of monumental abstract painting by Basil Beattie, before enjoying a meal in the first floor café, overlooking Hastings’ fishing beach. The supper will be freshly prepared by Webbe’s chefs using locally sourced ingredients.

Saturday 19 October
Enjoy wandering the historic streets of Hastings’ picturesque Old Town. There are a number of excellent quirky boutiques and cafés and the antique shops are a great place to pick up a bargain. Test your skills on one of the crazy golf courses on the seafront or take Hastings funicular railway to the East Hill and enjoy the views over the town and sea. If you are staying in Hastings for the evening, join in with the local bonfire celebrations. The spectacular torch-lit procession, starting from The Stade, commemorates the Battle of Hastings and the gunpowder plot and ends with a bonfire and firework display. http://www.hbbs.info/

From Hastings you can take a 10 minute train journey to Bexhill. Alternatively, rent a bike and enjoy the coastal cycle route, which runs from Hastings to Bexhill. www.bexhillbicycle.com

Join a free tour around the De La Warr Pavilion and find out more about the history of this iconic modernist building. After a bite to eat in the Pavilion’s café, visit the Universal Addressability of Dumb Things exhibition, curated by Turner Prize-winning artist, Mark Leckey. This is the final weekend of the exhibition which explores the magical world of new technology, and traces its connections to the beliefs of our distant past. You can join in the free afternoon workshop with writer, Christine Harmar-Brown, who will be using annotation to question what and how we see everyday objects. Alternatively, take a walk on Bexhill’s new contemporary seafront or browse the independent shops for vintage bargains and gifts. If you are staying the night, or coming back on Sunday, you can visit a local arts and crafts fair at the Sackville Hotel.

Sunday 20 October
Take the short train journey to Eastbourne (15 minutes from Bexhill or 25 minutes from Hastings) and experience Towner’s mix of traditional and cutting edge contemporary art. Don’t miss the immersive installation exhibition by Japanese performance and installation artist Chiharu Shiota. Then head to the Collection Gallery for a display from Towner’s renowned collection of nearly 5,000 historic, modern and contemporary works – featuring artists such as Christopher Wood, Edward Bawden and David Bomberg. Join a free Towner tour and find out more about the architecture and the history of the gallery.
Towner sits at the foot of the South Downs National Park so, after taking in the striking views of the Downs from Towner’s café bar, why not round off the weekend with a walk in some of the South’s most beautiful countryside? From Eastbourne it is a short journey to Beachy Head, the Long Man of Wilmington and the Cuckmere Valley – areas of outstanding natural beauty which have inspired many of Britain’s most celebrated artists.

Whats On?

Exhibitions

Universal Addressability of Dumb Things
Until Sun 20 Oct 2013
De La Warr Pavilion
Turner Prize-winning artist Mark Leckey has curated an exhibition that explores the magical world of new technology, as well as tracing its connections to the beliefs of our distant past. Historical and contemporary works of art, videos, machines, archaeological artefacts and iconic object inhabit an “enchanted landscape” created in the Pavilion’s galleries, where objects seem to be communicating with each other and with us.

Chiharu Shiota: Other Side
11 October 2013 – 5 January 2014
Towner
Chiharu Shiota is a Japanese performance and installation artist best known for creating monumental yet delicate environments. Towner has commissioned Shiota to create an ambitious, immersive installation that will pervade our entire gallery space.

Basil Beattie: Promises, Promises
12 October 2013- 8 January 2014
Jerwood Gallery
This awe-inspiring exhibition, guest curated by the art historian and critic Mel Gooding, puts into focus Basil Beattie’s most recent work, largely unseen. Beattie is celebrated for his powerful, large scale abstract works in which he employs pictograms and spatial components, such as tunnels, steps and ladders, to explore the limits and possibilities of abstract pictorial space.

Philip Guston
12 October 2013- 8 January 2014
Jerwood Gallery
Contextualising the Basil Beattie exhibition is a one room display of painting and lithographs by the American artist, Philip Guston (1913-1980). Beattie saw Philip Guston’s Whitechapel show in 1962 and was later strongly influenced by his work. The lithographs on display are from a series of 25 prints and are a lasting testament to Guston’s fascination with line and the act of drawing.

Marlow Moss
12 October – 23 April 2014
Jerwood Gallery
This Tate-touring exhibition features a group of important works by Marlow Moss (1889-1958), now regarded as one of Britain’s most important Constructivist artists.

The Pavilion has won many awards for the imagination and inspiration behind its Big Draw activities – come and help us win another!

Interview with The Lumberjacks

The Lumberjacks will be performing at De La Warr Pavilion on 11 October. Click here to purchase tickets

When you hear that The Lumberjacks will be touring together all the way through to the spring of 2014 (with some short breaks for good behaviour), you can picture headlines about punch-ups and trashed hotel rooms already. Except that kind of rock’n’roll behaviour has more chance of happening as Canada has of invading its larger neighbour. Craig Campbell, Glenn Wool and Stewart Francis, the three comics in question, all originally hail from the land of the Maple Leaf and the moose, and have been round too many blocks together to let anything untoward occur on or off the tour bus. Plus, they just really enjoy each other’s company.

“There’s just no stress in it,” says Campbell. “I know them intimately, they know me intimately, I’ll go pick up sandwiches and I know what they’ll want on them. You don’t sit in a green room and clip each other’s wings before they go on. You know their emotional state the second you look at them. There’s no social stress regarding it and it’s quite warming to know that this far in advance you’ll have a nice time no matter what.”

Francis concurs: “We’ve known each other for the better part of 20 years and we’re at the age where we’ve been through all that crap. Hanging out with a couple of chums and telling some gags: nothing bad can come out of it. That’s my story anyway.”

The Lumberjacks story begins way back in the 20^th century. With Campbell and Francis enjoying some success in Canada, they thought they would have a stab at the Edinburgh Fringe of 1997. They’d heard nothing but good things about it, other than the fact most people seem to complete the month of August with an awful lot less cash than they had at the beginning.

Campbell remembers it like this: “Me and Stewart thought, well, we can’t do an hour each here, so why don’t we combine our forces? We weren’t exactly slouches, we could both make people laugh, but with our combined forces we could get 15 people in. Glenn piled up out of the blue and we were pretty laissez-faire about it so we were happy to let him do a set. Obviously a two-header is so much easier if you have someone else there to be a compere sticking it all together.”

Wool’s arrival onto the Lumberjacks crew actually occurred after one of his typical wanderings across foreign soils (his most recent full show was entitled No Lands Man), this time in search of his roots. “I wasn’t so much visiting as scaring family in Estonia. I didn’t tell anyone I was coming, I was just backpacking through Europe on the way to the family farm. I knocked on the door and this guy came out, so I said: ‘I am Vool. Vool from Canada’ but this guy just gave me an icy stare, coldly shakes my hand and goes back in. When I got back to Canada I told my dad about it and he said: ‘yeah I shoulda told you, he thought you were coming to take the farm back’.”

A rather warmer welcome awaited Wool from his old cronies Campbell and Francis and the trio that has become The Lumberjacks was cemented. The beauty of their shows back then as well as now is that you have three very different comics on stage each night. Francis is king of the one-liners, Campbell tells long shaggy stories with masses of observation, and while Wool also goes for the longer narratives it’s usually with a more surreal, leftfield bent. “From the audience’s perspective it’s nice to have that change of pace,” admits Francis. “So this particular show really has a something-for-everyone approach, and has worked out nicely.”

They returned to Edinburgh in 1998 with larger reputations and performing in bigger rooms (that first year they played various spaces, one of which was a classic Edinburgh broom cupboard with the approximate capacity of 25). Wool recalls that when the curtain came down on the 1998 Fringe, a solemn promise was made to each other about the future. “After the second year ended, we said wouldn’t it be great if we all made a name for ourselves in the UK and came back to do this in a huge room and reap the benefits of our hard work. Sometimes verbalising a wish like that is the best way to make it happen. A few emails were fired off back and forth and everybody was totally ready. It was a lot easier that we had said at the time, ‘let’s dream a dream, kids!’”

And that dream was realised last summer when we witnessed The Return Of The Lumberjacks (‘Back By Poplar Demand!’). No broom cupboards for these boys this time, instead they played the Assembly Rooms. None of the trio quite remembers who initially suggested that they get back together. But they were all delighted to gather up the old team and have more or less committed to Edinburgh runs and national tours that will take them into 2014. There’s even talk of taking the show to Canada: “it will be easy to get a seat as we’re unheard of over there,” muses Francis.

As Campbell remembers the reunion: “I do recall being shocked that they were interested from the point of view that any guys I had worked with in 1997 would want to stand in a room with me and finish a cup of coffee never mind commit to going on the road for so long. Probably, my emotional mind overrode where it came about as I was honestly shocked.”

“We’ve all hinted that it would be nice as all our profiles have shot up here,” says Francis. “It’s not so much of a thank-you note to the UK as that would be patronising, but it seems that if it wasn’t for the UK, boy, where would we be? So, the love affair continues and by putting a good show together, there’s more bang for your buck with three shows for the price of one.”

For Wool, he was intrigued by the response from fellow comedians to the three of them getting back together. “It’s funny to see how other comics reacted to it: ‘you’re doing what? You’re bringing your old show back: is there money in it?’ And when they knew there was some money in it, you could see them clicking over: ‘do you need a fourth guy?’”

Campbell also wants to acknowledge the fact that there is one member of the trio who is perhaps getting involved in something that his higher profile doesn’t necessarily need. “In my world, I’m doing great,” notes Campbell. “But from my perception of things, Stewart’s doing really good. So, as I see it, he’s giving Glenn and I a leg-up by going into bigger venues than we would be playing in individually. It’s a great move of grace on his part. Stewart probably wouldn’t look on it that way, but that’s an insight into him. He likes to share and enjoy time with his buddies and we have a lot of memories and history together.”

Wool notes one major difference from their early Edinburgh shows to their experience of August 2012. “Most nights we were being wined and dined by various touring promoters and television people who liked our chemistry. I’ve been in Edinburgh when you couldn’t get the sound guy to come to the show and now we’re looking at sold-out crowds. It felt almost too easy which is usually a bad sign, but here it was a sign that we had actually realised how things actually work.”

As for the structure of their first national tour, Wool admits that it is pretty well fixed in their minds, while admitting that once out on the road, the best laid plans can sometime go out the window (there’s talk of them possibly doing sketch material once they’ve bedded in to the tour). “Campbell likes MCing so probably he’ll do 15, then me for 30, then him again for 15 and Stewart for 30. But I’m sure we could witter on for longer if we want to or if the crowd has earned it! I don’t think time will be an issue, we all have a pretty big canon of material to go back to, but I think it will spur us all on to write new stuff. This tour will essentially be the greatest hits package with some new stuff mixed in.”
