http://www.artside.org.uk

SATURDAY 17 JULY
10.15am – simultaneous broadcast on Phoenix FM, Saint FM, Safe Radio
KELDA FREE & DAVID BRAZIER
Southend Serenade - 2010 marks the 90th anniversary of a world first in radio broadcasting. In June 1920, Australian opera singer Dame Nellie Melba travelled from London to Chelmsford. She was transported from the train station to a workshop in Essex in a white Rolls Royce, to take part in the first live public entertainment Broadcast in the World by a celebrity. Her voice was heard hundreds of miles away by the lucky few who owned a radio receiver. A collective art duo, KELDA FREE & DAVID BRAZIER, invited the local radios to broadcast the song sung by Dame Melba all those years ago, to be heard once again in Southend.

2-3pm - BATHSHEBA SPORLE - performance at UTOPIA CAFE, Unit 2, Royals
BATHSHEBA SPORLE will be exploring the culture of violent teens and adults, using her fashion background to build a sculpture of a full body suit which takes the shape of a very powerful violent image that she remembers very well from her teen years. The fabric will be digitally printed with a photograph which she took of the vandalised pier hill sound sculpture.

3-5.30pm - NATASHA VICARS live art on the Southend Beach off Marine Parade (between TWO PEBBLES cafe and the jetty pier, next to Adventure Island)
Flowers for the sea live art - Natasha Vicars makes small-scale interactive and participatory live works for a variety of settings. She is interested in chance as an artistic strategy and in experiences of solitude in public places.
Flowers for the Sea is a live art work where she’ll be asking visitors to step away from the seaside entertainments and take a moment to contemplate the sea - source of inspiration for countless novels and paintings, potent symbol, a body of water to us unimaginably vast and strong. In doing so, she displaces a tradition from Brazil and, working from a flower stall on the beach, introduces individual participants to a practice that involves offering flowers into the waves.

All day - NATASHA VICARS land art – site-specific installation on the Southend Beach off Marine Parade (between TWO PEBBLES cafe and the jetty pier, next to Adventure Island)
Natasha Vicars will be arriving to Southend early in the morning when the tide is out - in time for some beach-combing. She will then create an installation (about 9 x 9ft) out of found elements. The piece will stay on the beach until disassembled by the sea and beach-goers.

SUNDAY 18 JULY

10-6pm - LAURA KEEBLE
An outdoor sculpture outside Starbucks on the Southend High Street.
From 12pm - BIRGIT DEUBNER
A procession led by the artist will move between the 18 ARTSIDE venues. Beaks will be worn by all participants of a silent flock  expressing curiosity and interest in city locations, people, and primarily the art venues around which the flock of 'intruders / visitors' will periodically huddle looking in through the windows, and thus drawing attention to these places.
