I was honoured to be asked to be on the selection panel for Neville Gabie’s The Greatest Distance project, along with Writer and critic, David Lillington, Artist and writer Bill Drummond, curator Danielle Arnaud, Archaeologist and sports historian, Jason Wood, Arts Consultant Sam Wilkinson.
We met at the Danielle Arnaud Gallery on 8th June to discuss over 100 proposals suggesting where Neville should go, and what he should do there, in order to achieve the greatest possible distance from the Olympics at the moment of the opening ceremony. It was a fascinating (and difficult) process. Visit Neville’s blog to hear some audio files of our conversation and see where the project is at.
