Heath Bunting, Rope Swings, 2008

Guest speaker: Heath Bunting

Artist-in-Residence: Jon Adams

At: Le Cafe Parisien, Lord Montgomery Way, Portsmouth

Discussion

After not being able to make a previous Cafe Artistique on account of being arrested at the airport (under the Terrorism Act), Heath Bunting returns.

As founder of net.art and sport-art, Heath Bunting exploits and plays with public space - both virtual and physical. He claims to be 'Britain's most important practising artist and The World's most famous computer artist'.

Heath Bunting will make a short presentation about his current work, before leading a discussion about using and abusing public space in the name of art.

Artist-in-Residence

Portsmouth-based Jon Adams 'will create a series of drawings to capture something of the atmosphere of the evening. These drawings created left-handed (I am right-handed) will be in pencil and ink on a variety of papers and torn book pages.'
