- | ==Ammunition (reloaded), Art Show, Nov 3rd-15th, 11am-5pm, St. Margarets Art Gallery==
| |
- | Following on from last years popular anti war exhibition another is to be held again in Norwich.
| |
- |
| |
- | Anti war events can never be seen as "successful", i.e. wars carry on regardless.
| |
- | However moments of reflection in the midst of our normal day-to-day-ness are certainly not a bad thing.
| |
- | Moments of clarity need nurturing and art can help make that happen.
| |
- |
| |
- | The show entitled AMMUNITION appeals to a broad cross section with work from agitprop to cool; from fine art to cartoon.
| |
- | In short something for everyone, well anyone who hopes and believes that peace is somehow possible, no matter how difficult to find.
| |
- |
| |
- | The show includes photomontage artist Peter Kennard with prints fresh from his London exhibition; international Pop artist and patron of Norwich Fringe Festival Colin Self; a print from the Lebanon series by John Kiki; and dancer and vocalist Samia Malik whose work explores race, language,politics, roots and religion.
| |
- |
| |
- | There will be a privat view when all the artists will be present: 7th November from 6.00pm.

| |
- | Occupation 101 is the winner of 8 film festival awards.
| |
- |
| |
- | It is a thought provoking and powerful documentary film on the current and
| |
- | historical root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Unlike any
| |
- | other film produced on the conflict Occupation 101 presents a comprehensive
| |
- | analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the controversy and
| |
- | dispels many of its long-perceived myths and misconceptions.
| |
- |
| |
- | The film lasts 90 minutes and will be followed by a discussion led by members of Norwich Stop the War Coalition. All welcome!
