30 new works by solo exhibitors from the early years of The Winchester Gallery and 15 gallery models -sculptures of site-specific installations
Curated by John Gillett
From the early 1980s until the year 2000, the Winchester Gallery occupied the double-height space on the second floor of the WSA East Side building, now the BA Fine Art studio.
This exhibition revisits selected exhibitions programmed into that space and some from when the Gallery first moved into the current location. The exhibition comprises new or recent work by thirty solo exhibitors from the original programme, accompanied by fifteen gallery models housing installations from the same era. The exhibition revisits models of site-specific installations originally curated by John Gillett, who, from 1985 until 2008, was Director of The Winchester Gallery.

Andrew Carnie is an artist and academic at Winchester School of Art, Southampton University. His practice often involves a meaningful interaction with scientists. He is part of the Critical Practices Research team where his interests lie in exploring the self, through notions of hybridity, in organ transplantation and immunology. Other themes and ideas are often based on neurology, the brain, and how we get a sense of ourselves through scientific ideas, and images The work is often time-based in nature, involving slide dissolve systems or video projection onto complex screens. In darkened spaces layered images appear and disappear on suspended voiles, the developing display absorbing the viewer into an expanded sense of space and time through slowly unfolding narratives that evolve around them. His work has been exhibited at the Science Museum, London, Natural History Museum, Rotterdam, Design Museum, Zurich, Exit Art, in New York, Williams College Museum of Art, Williamstown, Great North Museum, Newcastle, Pera Museum, Istanbul, Dresden Hygiene Museum, Morevska Gallery, Brno, and the Daejeon Museum of Art, South Korea amongst many others, most recently the Hatton Gallery and Vane, Newcastle.
