Transmission Week 5 - Mel Brimfield & Gwyneth Herbert

'Mel Brimfield's practice is rooted in exploring the vexed historiography of performance art and its relation to theatre and popular cultural forms. She makes work in regular collaboration with a broad range of performers, including comedians, choreographers and dancers, musicians, cabaret and theatre practitioners. In recent years, she has developed exhibitions and performances for agencies and institutions including Yorkshire Sculpture Park, the Government Art Collection at Whitechapel Gallery, Camden Arts Centre, Henry Moore Institute, and Ceri Hand Gallery.
Gwyneth Herbert is a critically acclaimed singer/songwriter with six albums to her credit, including the recent The Sea Cabinet commissioned by Snape Maltings. Paul Higgs is Brimfield's long-term collaborator, and has been the musical director, composer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist for all of her large-scale live performance and film works in the last four years.' - http://www.transmission.uk.com
