Stephen Turner Tree Rings
Stephen Turner is an artist deeply interested in finding new ways of seeing the landscape. This fully illustrated catalogue has been published to coincide with his exhibition Tree Rings. The new body of work emerged from Turner's residency in King's Wood, Challock, Kent, during a one year cycle from October 2001 to September 2002. It was commissioned by Stour Valley Arts (SVA) as part of its international artistic programme. As with his previous projects, Turner has used canvases to record marks made by the surrounding environment in a continuing dialogue with nature. Placed around particular trees in the forest, the canvases were left to the action of nature. They provide a physical record of each individual tree's unique ecology and symbolise cycles of growth, decay and rejuvenation. The Tree Rings drawings were made from the colours produced from the bark, leaves, acorns and berries of the trees. Features essay by Jeremy Theophilus, diary notes by Stephen Turner and natural history notes by Martin Hall.

Collaboration Through Craft
Offering a challenging new argument for the collaborative power of craft, this ground-breaking volume analyses the philosophies, politics and practicalities of collaborative craft work. The book is accessibly organised into four sections covering the cooperation and compromises required by the collaborative process; the potential of recent technological advances for the field of craft; the implications of cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural collaborations for authority and ownership; and the impact of crafted collaborations on the institutions where we work, learn and teach. With cutting-edge essays by established makers and artists such as Allison Smith (US) and Brass Art (UK), curator Lesley Millar, textile designer Trish Belford and distinguished thinker Glenn Adamson, Collaborating Through Craft will be essential reading for students, artists, makers, curators and scholars across a number of fields.

Worshipping a Crucified Man
By the mid-second century Christian writers were engaging in debates with educated audiences from non-Jewish Graeco-Roman cultural backgrounds. A remarkable feature of some of these texts is how extensively they refer to the Jewish scriptures, even though those scriptures were unfamiliar to non-Jewish Graeco-Romans. In Worshipping a Crucified Man, Jeremy Hudson explores for the first time why this should have been so. As the basis for his argument, Hudson examines three works by Christian converts originally educated in Graeco-Roman traditions: Justin Martyr's First Apology, Tatian's Oratio and Theophilus of Antioch's Ad Autolycum. He considers their literary strategies, their use of quotati...
Score for a Hole in the Ground
Score for a Hole in the Ground is a triple award winning work. Having been the recipient of the first PRS Foundation New Music Award, it went on to receive the Rouse Kent Public Art Award and the British Composer Award for New Media. Inspired by suikinkutsu water chimes found in temple gardens of Japan, Score for a Hole in the Ground uses tuned percussive instruments, played by falling water, to create music. Finer describes his piece as 'both music and an integrated part of the landscape and the forces that operate on it and in it'. The sound element of this piece is extremely subtle. It requires time to allow the visitor to tune their ear to the level of sound and is affected by weather and ambient noise.
