CLUSTER FITS
The premise behind this show is a joint process
called 'sketch jaming' whereby participants take
turns in adding to a drawing. The main wall behind
the boy scout trestles will be filled in by the
CLUSTER FITS feature artists using the same process.
Through the duration of the exhibition, we'd like to
encourage Foundry patrons to participate in the
'sketch jam' fun. Paper will be supplied, byo pen or
pencil.

BUILDING FOR THE G20 AND NATO SUMMIT PROTESTS
The G20 in London on April 2nd looks set to be
marked by the largest and most significant
anti-capitalist protests here for 10 years, with a
classic rainbow coalition of NGOs,
environmentalists, trade unionists, radicals, church
groups and every other group you can imagine backing
the TUC demo on March 28th - followed by big Stop
The War, climate camp and other actions on April
1st, and virtually everyone protesting at the summit
itself on April 2nd.
This is then followed by protests at the NATO summit
in Strasbourg from April 2nd - 5th which is looking
equally large and militant. The police are
determined to criminalise these protests, even
predicting trouble on the TUC demo. So lets make
these protests as big as possible and put OUR
solutions to the mess our leaders are making of the
world - we're not going to pay for their crisis or
fight their wars!
With this in mind, we'll have the latest info on the
protests, how you can get involved, activists
present from the various groups involved
facilitating discussion and showing the following
films:
THE GREAT TRADE ROBBERY A short animation from the
World Development Movement showing the unfairness of
the current situation.
CLIMATE CAMP: KINGSNORTH The climate camp will be
setting up camp in the city during the G20 summit.
This film shows what happened at Kingsnorth coal
fired power station last year, including a growing
trade union presence, and the growing movement for
green jobs and a just transition to combat both
climate change and the recession.
WATERFORD CRYSTAL: UNDER OCCUPATION So your factory
is shutting down, your job's gone and you're being
told there's nothing you can do? Last week we
visited the workers at Waterford Crystal glass
factory in Ireland, who refused to accept their
factory being shut and are now in their seventh week
of occupation, with substantial gains already.
GENOVA LIBERA The most infamous European
anticapitalist protest in history, as 300,000
protestors from across the world stood firm against
a cowardly and violent attempt to shut down the
anticapitalist movement.
We'll be taking a collection and messages of support
for the Waterford workers and for the workers at
Prisme factory in Dundee who are also in occupation
- see you on Sunday, and then see you in the
streets!

JOHN TILSON
The installation is an arangement of three A1
landscape pieces called 'yin and yang with grey
scaling'. It is a visual display of man and nature
in antithesis and in harmony: with the garden as
the halfway house between artifice and what man is
born into.
The opening night (Wednesday the 22nd of April)
brings together the talents of film makers,
comedians, poets and musicians under the careful
tour guidance of a science-geek musician,
comedian-compare.

LEO COHEN
"Death of another Jew"
The installation is set in two parts consisting of a
world juxtaposing Judaism with debauchery. Sanctity
and holy innocence is perhaps being perverted by sex
and filth, where one is caught between the balance
of something beautiful and something unholy one
might also find the holy distasteful too. The
aesthetics of the pieces may show that they are made
from cheap recycled material and the artist stresses
the metaphor on religion that perhaps it is
something material, holy, made from unholy and that
beautiful things are perhaps man made from the
things we neglect and normally throw away.
It is autobiographical of the artist's orthodox
Jewish upbringing and rebelling, his feelings
towards religion and the new perversions of life
outside the bubble neither for, nor against either,
but constantly torn between two worlds and always
left hanging in the balance.
