Chatham Vines
This limited edition hardback artist book documents John Newling's award winning Chatham Vines installation in St John's Church Chatham, Kent. In September 2004 thirty two Pinot Noir grape vines were planted in the central aisle of the disused church positioned either side of a 15 metre steel construction. The vines were grown for one year using hydroponics technology. At night the church was lit from within and two cameras continuously streamed images of the project to a dedicated website www.chathamvines.com. Before the vines were removed the grapes were harvested and made into wine, some of which was used in the Easter Sunday Eucharist Service at Rochester Cathedral and the rest will be available in Autumn 2006. Made possible with support from the Arts Council and Nottingham Trent University.
Designed by John Morgan Studio, limited to 1,000 copies. Text by Paul Bonaventura, Mark Bradbury, Rachel Jacobs, Laura Knight and Louise Francis, Peter Lock, John Newling, Andrew Spira and Isabel Vasseur and photographs by Matt Bray.

bench mark on the aesthetics of contemporary landscape concerns.

Drawing
Newham
James Pyman, Isabel Vasseur,
Rebecca Ward
An
artist book by James Pyman who was selected to work with the various schools
and community groups of the London Borough of Newham and West Ham United
Football
Club's Learning Zone to develop a variety of drawing projects that aimed
to help the people of Newham appropriate Champions as part of their neighbourhood.
Drawing Newham's aim was to involve people of different ages, ethnic origins,
and abilities; the project did not rely on a conventional approach to
drawing, but rather depended on an imaginative way of employing the medium.

Seen
and Magnified : Five Medway Towns
Richard Hoggart, Peter Cattrell and
David Moore
This is an unreleased publication containing
two photographic essays on the environs of Medway by Peter Cattrell and
David Moore, and an essay by Richard Hoggart. While the black and white
photography of Peter Cattrell is poetically romantic dealing mostly with
the unpeopled rural and nautical edge of the Medway conurbation, David
Moore focuses closely and in colour on the figures of those employed in
the newly located information industries. Richared Hoggart's essay cast
a rigorous eye on the failures of touristic ambitions while it celebrates
the courage and tenacity of a nautical land trying to reverse its misfortunes
due to the closure of Frognal and Chatham docks.
