Open Lecture by Dr. Malcolm Barnard: “Fashion, Messages and Communication”
Accessory Design
Thursday 20th September 2018 at 17:30, room A501
In his lecture Dr. Barnard will be outlining the main features of the sender/receiver model of communication as it applies to fashion, explaining what is wrong with it and arguing that messages are not sent or received but rather that meanings are constructed. He will suggest that the existence of this model may be accounted for by examining a mixture of capitalism and romanticism and he will explain how and why the sender/receiver model does not work by taking some famous people as examples.
Malcolm Barnard
Malcolm Barnard is Senior Lecturer in Visual Culture at Loughborough University (UK), where he teaches the history and theory of art and design. He has a BA(Hons) in Philosophy and Sociology from the University of York and a Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Warwick. He is the author of Fashion as Communication (Routledge 2002), Art, Design and Visual Culture (Macmillan 1998), Approaches to Understanding Visual Culture (Palgrave 2001), Graphic Design as Communication (Routledge 2005) and Fashion Theory: An Introduction (Routledge 2014). He is also the editor of Fashion Theory: A Reader (Routledge 2007) and of the four volume Fashion, (Routledge, Critical Concepts Series, 2012). Recent publications include an essay on fashion and the Kantian sublime and essays on Derrida and photography theory and on the semiology of advertising are forthcoming.
The lecture is organized by Department of Textile Design in cooperation with Department of Accessory and Bookbinding Design.

Open lecture by Paul Jackson: Folding as a Language of Art and Design
Textile Design
Paul will show how the folding of sheet materials such as fabric, plastic and wood has become one of the most vibrant languages of contemporary art and design around the world and how folding connects design to the wider-worlds of engineering, new materials and sustainability. Wow!
Paul Jackson was the first person outside Japan to make a career from folding paper. In a 35-year career, he has written almost 40 books, taught in more than 80 Schools of Design and undertaken many commissions and consultancies. Fine Art trained in England, his folded paper sculptures are regularly exhibited.

Nadia Hebson artist talk
Faculty of Architecture
Nadia Hebson (1974, Romsey, Hampshire) makes paintings, both figurative and abstract, objects, texts and large scale prints which are intimately but indirectly linked to the conventions and histories of painting. Working obliquely with the legacy of women artists, her work has sought to comprehend the relationship between painting, biography, persona and clothing, most notably through a consideration of the work of artists Winifred Knights and Christina Ramberg.

Part 2 of the 17th Tallinn Print Triennial youth exhibition Spheres
Jewellery and Blacksmithing
Since 1998, the Tallinn Print Triennial has been accompanied by young artists’ exhibitions. Spheres is the youth exhibition of the 17th Tallinn Print Triennial. Its aim is to study the contemporary human condition through the conceptual metaphor of a sphere. Philosopher and cultural theorist Peter Sloterdijk claims that spheres are hybrid and symbolic realities created by humans from whatever is ready to hand. They are spaces of coexistence that enable humans to exist as humans. All human life proceeds within membranes that provide meaning and immunity.
There are three types of spheres. Bubbles are microspheres and the smallest units of social existence. They are constituted by dyadic relationships between two entities. Globes are all-encompassing macrospheres that seek to unite all individual differences. Foam is the fragile and layered aggregate of vertically and horizontally contiguous bubbles that are characterized by co-fragility—if one bubble bursts, it affects all its neighbors.
The youth exhibition will take place in two parts. The second part will open at the Corridor Club of Kultuurikatel on the 31st of May at 6 PM and will remain open until the 16th of July. Participating artists— Valentin Alizer, Ann Pajuväli, Mark Antonius Puhkan, Irma Isabella Raabe, Kadi Reintamm, Elina Saat, Kristina Mirjam Villand and S3+A1 (Delija Thakur, Helga Aliis Saarlen, Elise Roos ja Patrik Olejňák). The exhibition is curated by Eve Kask and Oliver Laas. The exhibition designer is Delija Thakur, graphic designer is Kerli Virk.
