Preparing for FaB 2015!

Spring is finally here and we are busy getting ready for the Fringe Arts festival in Bath. This year we had even more international submissions and we are hoping that it is a trend that stays with us in years to follow.

Fringe Arts Bath has been on the festival-scene for ten years and is run by volunteers, who are artists themselves, to bring an exciting and diverse festival to Bath. A wide mix of events will take place during the two weeks and we are proud to be one of them!

If you'd like to check out what else is happening during the festival go to FaB's website

We hope to see you there!

This is only a few of our international submissions!

Sneak Peek of The Christmas Steps Gallery

   The Christmas Steps Gallery is an unique creative space. Large arch windows flood the main room with light and immediately invite passers-by to step inside. Two smaller rooms offer greater scope for full lighting control and are excellent spaces for video.  The street itself, The Christmas Steps, gave name to the gallery and the Christmas Steps Arts Quarter, a community of eight unique streets in Bristol lined with creative traders, independent shops, cafés, art galleries and many more intriguing finds.  Located in the very center of Bristol, The Christmas Steps Gallery promises a bustling opening night and regular foot fall during the day.   Visit the gallery's website for more photos and to see  their previous exhibitions. christmasstepsgallery.co.uk

Analogue/Man vs Digital/Machine

In the Swedish tv-series Äkta människor (English title Real humans) from 2012 we are confronted with a future society where robots (humanoids called a 'Hubot') have become close companions and have replaced most human workers. It cleverly raises some very current issues about how we live alongside the machines we have created. In one of the episodes two lawyers are discussing whether to start a case concerning the human (?) rights of Hubots: " A car doesn't have feelings and therefore it can't feel insulted or violated." "But you are saying a Hubot have feelings?" "Yes ... because there is no way for you to prove to anyone that you and me have feelings - is it in fact a behavior we have learnt to master which makes us socially acceptable? ... Can you prove that humans have a soul?" Although these Hubots where made to look like humans, they are treated like machines with the same rights and emotional capability as your SUV. And that is the problem right there - how can we continue to treat something that is programmed to look, sound and move like us as a machine? It is inevitable that the lines begin to blur and we start to forget about the difference between vains and wires, pulse and beep. I believe a future similar to that in Äkta människor is not actually that far away, but when we look at how we use technology in our own bodies in today's society it is maybe the machine in ourselvesthat we should confront. Today almost any damage or malfunction in our bodies can be fixed - pacemakers, chips, robotic limbs.. Even when nothing is wrong people undergo alterations like implants and tattooed ('permanent') makeup. Maybe in a not so distant future we will instead struggle to differentiate between the natural humans and the fake.
