#32: Offline Journal Newsletter : April '22
Friday, 29 April, 2022
Hello again!The audio clip at the top of this newsletter is a 6 minute taster I recorded with photographer Pete Davis on a ‘walk n talk’ around Found Gallery in Brecon on the first day of his City Stories: Cardiff 1969 - 1977 exhibition earlier this week.This is a must-see exhibition on both floors at Found Gallery - well worth a visit!The complete recording will posted on the Subscriber+ area of the offline.wales website early next week.NEW Offline Journal SubscriptionsIt’s been a busy few months but you have now seen the result in the new issue #008 of Offline Journal. If you bought a copy, thank you, I hope you’ve enjoyed reading it as much as the featured talented contributors and I enjoyed pulling it together.Speaking of which…I’m pleased to announce Subscriptions are now available for the next two issues of Offline Journal and I hope you might consider supporting the publication through one of two Subscription offers below.Subscriber support ensures each new issue goes off to the printers, so thank you in advance if you do Subscribe!Brian1. SubscriberFirst, a normal Subscription secures a copy of both issues #009 (October 2022) and #010 (April 2023) inclusive of post & packing and a short monthly email Newsletter. There’s a slight twist this year as I’m responding to a few requests for starting a 2-issue subscription for issues #008 and #009, however this will only last as long as copies of issue #008 remain in stock.1 x issue #008 (April 2022) and 1 x issue #009 (October 2022)or1 x issue #009 (October 2022) and 1 x issue #010 (April 2023)Subscriber : £27.002. Subscriber PlusNext, the popular Subscriber+ option, which again secures a copy of the next two issues but also includes the limited edition printed supplements and more in-depth monthly email Newsletter, returns in a slightly modified form.Secure a copy of issues #009 and #010PLUS• 1 x FOLIO exhibition poster (A2-size folded to A4)• 1 x Offline Essay featuring new writing on photography (8-page A4)• SUBSCRIBER+ access to new website interviews & content• SUBSCRIBER+ enhanced Newsletter to your email inbox monthlyFOLIO poster will be included with Offline Journal October issue.Offline Essay will be included as a supplement with Offline Journal April issue.Post and packing included.Subscriber+ : £45.00Offline FOLIOOffline FOLIO exhibition posters – a collaboration with selected photographers and small galleries – have proven popular since they started but, despite being deceptively simple, are relatively expensive to produce. However I think they’re worth doing as a small acknowledgement of indie exhibitions, so they will continue but now come as a supplement to the October issue of the Journal for Subscriber+ supporters (look out for the next one when issue #009 is published and launched at The EYE Festival this October in Aberystwyth).Offline EssaysOffline Essays will also continue as a Subscriber+ supplement. I think they’re a good format for photographers/writers to articulate their thinking on contemporary photography or, as demonstrated in the most recent essay by Garry Stuart, linking past and present work for new audiences. Going forward, Offline Essays will be a supplement to the April issue of the Journal and now have eight pages to include a few more photographs alongside text.Offline Newsletter & WebsiteThe Subscriber+ Newsletter provides those supporters with updates on photography around Wales between the April & October printed issues of Offline Journal and starting June there will be an expanded version each month plus more new materials posted monthly on the Subscriber+ area of the offline.wales website.Access to Subscriber versions of the email Newsletter and content on the supporter area of the website remain active for the duration of any paid Offline Journal Subscription.Photography Exhibitions & EventsHere’s a list of exhibitions shared with me.Again, if you’re aware of any others planned for 2022, please leave a comment or direct a gallery representative my way via offline.journal@gmail.comDAVID HURN: SWAPSDavid Hurn / Various23 October 2021 - 29 August 2022 (extended)National Museum Wales, Cardiffwww.museum.walesCITY STORIES : Cardiff 1969 - 1977Pete Davis26 April - 21 May 2022Found Gallery, Breconwww.foundgallery.co.uk*EVENT*: Pete Davis will be giving a talk on Tuesday 3rd May at 7pm at Found Gallery.
