Photography and the Politics of Space
In July the Brighton Photo Biennial seemed a long way off, now it is only a month away. So join us for a weekend by the seaside for our biggest study visit to date on 3 and 4 November. The visit will run from 11am on Saturday to 3.30pm on Sunday but you do not need to attend both days. And when I say join us, I mean Jose Navarro, Jesse Alexander and Sharon Boothroyd and myself.
There is a lot to see and Saturday will largely be devoted to the standard study visit fare of loking at exhibitions and discussing them over cups of tea and coffee. On Sunday the emphasis changes slightly, in addition to exhibition visits we have built in some time for discussions about student work and log books and in the afternoon we have a limited number of tickets for what promises to be a fascinating discussion between Stephen Bull, Programme Leader for Photography at UCA and Sean O’Hagan the Guardian’s Photography Correspondent.
As always with study visits, attendance is free and to book your place simply email enquiries@oca-uk.com Please specify if you are going to attend on Saturday, Sunday or both days.

Can’t wait—hotel has been booked for months! Looking forward to seeing you all.
are you going to both days vicki?
Yup! Booked into Hilton Metropole—the same as Catherine—for the Saturday night. So out on the town then…! 🙂
Very nice! do you know where we meet or anything or is that to follow?
Not sure yet. Guess that will come via email soon?
I appreciate that you’ve built in discussing work and log books. Like Vicki my hotel has been booked for a while – Hilton Metropole in case anyone else is interested.
Really looking forward to it—seeing I could not do Leeds. Discussion on work and log books! Need that!
Fantastic! I live in Brighton and will be looking forward to meeting everyone! 🙂
Booked for the Saturday only – just a day trip for this one. Be good to see new faces and some old ones from the Leeds residential!
Not sure what you mean by old faces Dave! I’ll be there on Saturday only as well
Booked on for both days 🙂 only live in crawley so i can travel by train!
I’m booked for the Sunday only.
Chloe – I’ll be coming form Tadworth, down the M23. I can peel off and give you a lift if you like.
Chris
That would be really nice of you Chris 🙂 an offer i can’t refuse
thank you very much
Look forward to seeing you all. I am attending both days so will stay overnight. I’m checking out a few options but may join Catherine and Vicki at the Hilton – they have some quite good offers.
I’m assuming that the meeting will end after the talk or around 4-ish on the Sunday? Just need to know for planning purposes.
Join us in the Hilton Eileen! We can be the witches of Eastwick! Oh, what a night…! 😉
I have booked a room there – looking forward to it!
I hope you ladies don’t mind, but I’ve also booked the Hilton. There’s a special offer on bookings until midnight tonight, in case anyone else is thinking about it.
I’m really excited about going on the study visit, meeting everyone and seeing Brighton for the first time. I enjoyed the recent study visit to Liverpool and this one seems even better.
It’ll be great to meet up. Brighton won’t know what’s hit them!!
Brilliant Lucy!! Reckon there will be long chats into the night!
I have not booked The Hilton but am staying with friends – guess I will miss the stirring of the cauldron !!?!
@Amano—you’re welcome to come and stir!
eye of bat, toe of frog … !!
Can I be a visiting Witch? We are staying at the Holiday Inn but I like the idea of the long chats into the night…
Absolutely welcome as a visiting witch, Helen!! Not sure how late we will talk into the night—just got my pack which says we ‘start’ 09:30 am on Sunday morning! Seriously, does anyone expect me to talk sense at that time of day on a Sunday?? 🙂
I’m going both days. Staying with a friend in Hove Friday and Saturday night. Catching 17:14 train back to Newark via Kings Cross on Sunday. Really looking forward to it.
I have put in my request to attend, hopefully for both days. Looking forward to meeting up with more fellow students.
Don’t suppose directions confuse anyone else or is it just me? ha
Chloe – change of plan on my part and I’ll be coming down on the train now so won’t be able to give you a lift. Sorry
Chris
That’s fine Chris ill be coming down from Dorking anyway so maybe ill see you on the train!
