Minutes for the Meeting on 15/02/06, 9.30 AM
Present: Nici, Rosemary, Clancy, Annie, Desdemona, Beth, Francesca, Gin, Kelly, Katrina, Emma.
Clancy began by telling us about Friday's lunch with the women from the Polish Cultural Institute. Clancy and I took them to the Women's Library and then to the Whitechapel Gallery where Louise McKinney, Head of Development, gave us a tour of both exhibitions as well as a sneak preview of plans for the old Whitechapel Library, which the gallery is refitting as extra exhibition and educational space. This was followed by brief visits to the Bell Foundry and Atlantis Art Supplies, before a curry lunch at an excellent local restaurant.
We moved on to discuss the itinerary for the Warsaw trip. On Tuesday afternoon we will be visiting the National Gallery - Zacheta (meaning "enhanced"). On the following morning there will be a trip to the Centre for Contemporary Art, with the option for some of us to visit the Bunker of Art in Krakow. Please contact Clancy if you wish to be included in the Krakow trip. The rest of the time, we will all be free to visit places and people relevant to our own research priorities, and to have fun! A number of people expressed an interest in visiting the Poster Museum.
Next, we discussed some practicalities regarding the trip. The main points were to wrap up warm (5 - day weather forecast for Warsaw here), and protect our personal safety by keeping in touch with each other, not using unlicensed minicabs etc.
The main focus of the meeting was to update each other on where we are all up to with our research. Each of the research team gave a short presentation on what and who they have found so far, and where their research is leading them next. We discussed ways in which our research aims and objectives were developing and changing, and how threads of mutual interest are beginning to connect our different research priorities.
After the presentations, I briefly reminded people that if they want examples of their work on the blog before we leave for Poland then they need to post soon, as I need things to be posted before I can work on the layout.
Lastly, Nici informed us that Lynda is designing us a new leaflet/flyer to give to interested parties.
