Summary
I don’t think it is desirable, or possible, in this introduction to a small selection of papers (four) from the conference Telling Places: Narrative and identity in art and architecture, to attempt a complete summary of its proceedings (which included twenty papers, including Davison 2008). Along with the paper presentations, the conference included an exhibition of work produced in the PhD programs at the Bartlett School of Architecture and the Slade School of Fine Art, curated by Christiana Ioannou, Christos Papastergiou, and Laura Cinti; a workshop (that included, most disconcertingly and significantly, actual singing by academics) provided by the artist Gavin Bryars; and keynotes by the artist Bruce McLean, and the artists Jane and Louise Wilson. These were significant aspects of the conference, and the four papers chosen for this issue of Multi can only begin to indicate what came out of those other elements. Nevertheless, the papers here show the extent to which the conference encouraged material from both the history/ theory, and practice, traditions of fine art and architecture.
