Mixed Tapes - HANNAH LUXTON (and Rebecca Solnit)

from ART FICTIONS · host Jillian Knipe

Hannah Luxton selects 'A Field Guide to Getting Lost' by Rebecca Solnit, published by Canongate Books in 2005. We join the author’s drunken debut and travel with her to extremes at the western edges of America as she explores a myriad of geographical, ancestral and metaphysical ways of getting lost. Picking up on Rebecca’s fascination with the elusiveness of blue - the colour of where you are not and where you can never go - Hannah’s work is particularly spurred on by the sublime; that which is beyond knowledge. She describes her American road trip, her obsession with Iceland and we discuss in detail, her paintings and installations including those seen at Glass Cloud, Lily Brooke and Arthouse1. (Mixed Tapes is an introductory series recorded in lockdown with variations in audio quality.)   Notes and Links: HANNAH LUXTON - hannahluxton.com - instagram hannahluxton_   - BOOKS / TEXT / WRITERS - ‘Of Stars and Chasms’ exhibition catalogue text by Sara Jaspan - ‘The Faraway Nearby’ by Rebecca Solnit - ‘The Magic Mountain’ by Thomas Mann - Albert Camus (Nobel Prize winning French philosopher, author, journalist who attended Yves Klein exhibition ‘The Void’ 1958) - Slavoj Zizek (Slovenian philosopher who introduced the concept of unknown knowns) GALLERIES - Arthouse1 - Barbican Arts Group Trust - Glass Cloud Gallery - Lily Brooke Gallery  - The Hayward Gallery ARTISTS - Julie F Hill juliehill.co.uk, Grant Foster grantfoster.com, Yves Klein 1928-1962, Mark Rothko 1903-1970, Ansel Adams 1902-1984, John Martin 1789-1854, J M W Turner 1775-1851, Caspar David Friedrich 1774-1840, Raphael 1483-1520, Joachim Patinir 1480-1524, Hans Memling 1430-1494
