The fourth mystery in the beloved and critically acclaimed Detective Kubu series tracks a series of murders and the mysterious witch doctor whose nefarious potions might hold the key to a web of missing persons.
Produced to accompany the Turner Prize nominated exhibition at Milton Keynes Gallery in April - June 2008, this publication brings together a selection of Cathy Wilkes' most recent work. Cathy's work is characterised by the creation of a slowly emerging personal vocabulary of sculptures and paintings that the artist makes and re-makes in evolving assemblages and environments. Her processes are measured and refined, and draw on the most intimate of personal experiences to create a compelling autobiographical thread coupled with a precise and liberated formal language.
Opera- and wine-loving Detective Kubu returns in a startling mystery that takes him across the globe as he hunts down his father's killer.
The sixth mystery in the beloved and critically acclaimed Detective Kubu series. Kubu and his colleague Samantha Khama track a killer through the wilds of Botswana in their most dangerous case yet.
Offering a grittier perspective on Botswana, this book appeals to fans of the Number One Ladies series seeking a more realistic narrative. It delves into the complexities of life in the region, exploring themes of culture, resilience, and the challenges faced by its inhabitants. The story promises to provide a deeper understanding of Botswana, moving beyond the charm of its predecessors to reveal a more nuanced reality.
This catalogue marks British sculptor, Rose Finn-Kelcey's most comprehensive exhibition in over 10 years. Comprising three new sculptural installations made partly in response to a recent residency and tour of China. Typically for Finn-Kelcey, the use and misuse of language provides the focus for the exhibition. Applying her characteristic irony and subversive wit, Finn-Kelcey highlights the perils of interpretation when Chinese characters collide and are conversely assimilated into new and alien contexts. Published on the occasion of the artist's solo exhibition at Milton Keynes Gallery, December 2006 - January 2007.
Gilberto Zorio belongs to a generation of Italian artists who in the mid 1960s pioneered a radical and distinguished artistic movement which later became known as Arte Povera. Through the use of often modest and humble materials, these artists posed profound questions about the very nature of human existence which still resonate today. Combining new site-specific work with historical pieces tracing points of his practice for the installation at Milton Keynes, Zorio choreographed elemental forces, chemical reactions and industrial forms into a vibrant environmental experience brimming with awe and wonder. Published to accompany Gilberto Zorio's first solo exhibition in the UK at Milton Keynes Gallery, October 2008 – January 2009.
