SUMMARY:Exhibition | Siticulosa | Maeve Brennan
DESCRIPTION:Set in the Apulia region of southern Italy\, Siticulosa\, 2025 (45min) is part of an ongoing body of work by artist Maeve Brennan\, which focuses on the global trade in illicit antiquities. The film unfolds through a series of interviews with individuals including a biodynamic farmer\, an art historian and a forensic archaeologist\, each with a distinct relationship to the land and the objects buried within it. \nIt traverses a parched landscape of caves and looted tombs\, evoking a consideration of the relationship between archaeology\, geology and ecology. Siticulosa is a study of a territory\, its past and present\, and the people who inhabit it. \nMaeve Brennan is a London-based artist and filmmaker whose practice explores the social\, historical and political resonance of material and place. Brennan was awarded the prestigious Paul Hamlyn Award for Artists in 2025 and is the recipient of the FLAMIN Production Award 2025 for her project DEEP STORAGE. Her works have been widely exhibited\, most recently at Tai Kwun Contemporary\, Hong Kong\, Barbican Centre\, London\, The High Line\, New York\, and Tate Britain\, London. \nMaeve Brennan will visit CAST to give an artist’s talk and screen her earlier work An Excavation (2022)\nFriday 3 April 2026 – Saturday 30 May 2026\nWednesday to Saturday\, 10am-4pm \nScreenings begin every 45mins:\n10am\n10.45am\n11.30am\n12.15pm\n1pm\n1.45pm\n2.30pm\n3.15pm \nFree admission\, all welcome

SUMMARY:Screening - Manifesto
DESCRIPTION:Ane Hjort Guttu’s film Manifesto\, 2020\, (27 min) speculates on the aims and purposes of institutional art education. Newly migrated into a university and an open-plan campus building\, an art school feels cornered by a suffocating culture of surveillance and administration. Staff and students find ways to subvert control through secret operations. Drawing on her own experiences as an art teacher\, Ane Hjort Guttu explores what is lost when creativity is replaced by order and provides action plans for how to be the playful rebel. \nAne Hjort Guttu is a visual artist and filmmaker based in Oslo. She works across a range of media\, with a particular focus on text and moving images. Her practice explores the relationship between freedom and power\, how we navigate public space\, individual autonomy\, and the social\, economic\, and political conditions of art. \nFrom 13 to 20 March 2026 Ane Hjort Guttu will be leading the eighth Cornwall Workshop\, a weeklong intensive residential workshop for artists\, curators and writers based in Cornwall and the South West. The workshop is organised by CAST and hosted at Kestle Barton on the Lizard peninsula.
