The third issue of Column provides the platform for greater critical focus on a series of exhibition, residency, performance and discourse projects held at Artspace over the period September 2008 to April 2009. Column 3 features extensive commentary and documentation of the two iterations of Artspace’s major institutional collaboration with Tokyo Wonder Site, Diorama of the City and Between Site & Space; the international group exhibition Point of Origin and its accompanying symposium aesthetics, anti-aesthetics, non-aesthetics, new aesthetics; and the presentation of four artists’ moving image works in Event, with focus on a project developed in residence by Finnish artist Elena Näsänen. This issue also includes two accounts of the work of Bruce Barber and the survey exhibition that encompassed four decades of his practice, as well as an in-depth interview with the artist; documentation of Artspace 24/25, reflecting on the 25th anniversary of Artspace as an exhibiting organisation through 24 one-hour exhibition and performance projects; and a full colour page work project by Richard Maloy.
