Stuart Brisley's Peterlee Project
-
Description
An innovative early artists residency which took place in the town between 1976-77, working with members of the community to collect photographs and oral history interviews on the history within living memory of the New Town. Brisley saw the work as a kind of social activism and a necessary precurser to the creation of cultural work in a community which was still in formation. The project was essentially process based, the materials created by the project passed into the hands of Easington District Council and then Durham archives. There is more information about the project and Brisley's work here on the artists website. -
