This new installation by Beth Emily Richards explores the fact and fiction surrounding pop legend Michael Jackson\u2019s bizarre appearance at Exeter City\u2019s football ground, St James\u2019 Park, in 2002.<\/p>\n In conjunction with this installation, on Tuesday 4 October 2016, Beth will be presenting\u00a0No Such Event Took Place<\/a>,<\/i>\u00a0a short performance lecture investigating the 1999 Michael Jackson gig in Barnstaple\u2019s Queen\u2019s Theatre. This\u00a0narrative is the starting point for conversations about lookalikes, reenactments, the power of audience belief, online fan forums, and the murky world of celebrity-obsessed tabloid journalism. It starts at 7 pm and is free.<\/p>\n Beth Emily Richards<\/a> is a PhD researcher in the Performance.Experience.Presence <\/a>(P.E.P) research group at Plymouth University, supervised by Prof Roberta Mock<\/a> & Dr Anya Lewin<\/a>. Her artistic research\u00a0addresses the veracity of the archive, particularly the role of lens-based media and documentation in live artworks.<\/p>\n Beth\u00a0utilises photographs, text, events and actions, performances to camera, sound works and props to subvert personal, sited and fictive histories. Strategies of \u2018failure\u2019 and changes of scale are often employed to disrupt expectations and hegemonies in a playful way. She employs reenactment to interrogate concepts of authenticity, and to play with the malleability of meaning created by images, artworks and narratives.<\/p>\n Gallery 333 is an intimate window gallery at the Exeter Phoenix for micro-installations and sculptural interventions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Monday 12 September – Saturday 12 November 2016 Gallery 333 at the Exeter Phoenix.
