S2 Ep8: Jeremy Deller
Art Cast is a podcast usually presented by Matt Gee, artist and Subject Leader for Fine Art at the Chelsea Centre, Morley College. But today it will be presented by HNC Fine Art student Phoebe Ingleby and Fine Art Foundation student Barbara Cserny.
The guest for this podcast is Jeremy Deller. Jeremy is a conceptual artist who works across mediums with a huge emphasis on collaboration. In 1997, he produced Acid Brass, a musical collaboration with the Williams Fairey Brass Band from Stockport. It was a project to mix the music of a traditional brass band with acid house and Detroit techno. His work has a strong political aspect, in terms of the subjects dealt with and also by involving the public in the creative process. Folk Archive was a tour of so called “people’s art” and has been exhibited throughout the UK including at Barbican Centre.
Sacrilege, a 1:1 bouncy replica of Stonehenge created for the 2012 Olympic Games was toured around the UK.
Deller staged The Battle of Orgreave in 2001, bringing together almost 1,000 people in a public re-enactment of a violent confrontation from the 1984 Miners’ Strike. The re-enactment was filmed by director Mike Figgis for Artangel Media and Channel 4. The Battle of Orgreave was ranked second in The Guardian’s Best Art of the 21st Century list, with critic Hettie Judah calling it a “monument of sorts, the performance was at once participatory ritual, spectacle, living archive and a space to mourn”.
In 2004, for the opening of Manifesta 5, the roving European Biennial of Contemporary art, Deller organised a Social Parade through the streets of the city of Donostia-San Sebastian, drafting in cadres of local alternative societies and support groups to participate.
.
Deller produced the documentary Everybody in The Place: An Incomplete History of Britain 1984–1992 which covered acid house and rave culture, and political turmoil in Britain in the 1980s and early-1990s, first shown by BBC Four on 2 August 2019.
Deller was the winner of the Turner Prize in 2004 and he was selected to represent Great Britain at the Venice Biennale in 2013.
