Mark Kermode interviewing Mike Leigh

2010-11-06T23:49:00.001Z

Episode 12, The Culture Show, 2010. [TV], BBC2, 4th Oct.
Transcribed by Micheál O’Connell

MK: I’ve asked you about this before and you’ve attempted to explain it to me before and I confess I’ve never really understood it Mike. The workings you use to arrive at that complexity. Do you want to have another run at trying to tell me how it happens?

ML: Well I can tell you in the general way, as I already have, what the principle is, which is that I work up a script and I work with actors first of all individually and then we create characters, put them together, gradually a world forms and having done that for a few months we go out on location and make up a film, if you like scripting it by rehearsal. Now, what I haven’t just explained to you, and I played it different the last time and I will the next time you ask, is actually what happens because it’s extremely complicated, it involves all kinds of creative things which go under the general heading of instinct, inspiration and telepathy. And apart from anything else it’s nobody’s business except for we who do it. [They both laugh]

MK: Very early on I interviewed you and you bit my head off really badly. I had attempted to put into words the working method that were devised and directed by, I didn’t know what I was talking about but I was trying and anyway you gave me a really hard time.

ML: I’m sorry for that.

MK: No, right, its fine, the interesting thing is from your point of view, the thing that seems significant is you are never afraid of saying something like “no that’s wrong and you don’t know what you’re talking about”

ML: So what are you asking?

MK: Is that genuinely how you look at it?

ML: Look the truth of it is that interviews are not easy for any of us who are on the receiving end. All I know about is trying just to be oneself, be honest and tell it like it is and we need to try and be truthful really, that’s all it is.

Ross Lydall:
Anish Kapoor's mirror sculptures in Kensington Gardens have been given 24-hour security costing the taxpayer an estimated £120,000.
For the next six month guards will stand beside stainless steel structures. Passers-by are being told not to touch or get too close. Dog-walkers must keep pets on leads to prevent them putting paw marks on the polished surfaces.
The public is not allowed to step on the plinth of one piece, C-Curve, to get the full effect of the huge concave mirror - unlike Kapoor when he unveiled the exhibition, Turning The World Upside Down, last week.
The security, present even when the park is shut, has been criticised as heavy-handed and detracting from the art. Kapoor wants to reflect the beauty of the "properly democratic" park's landscape and the sky, but many views are marred by guards' high-visibility jackets. Royal Parks is considering issuing them in "more subtle" colours. Officers are present even though one of the four sculptures - Sky Mirror, Red - is in the Round Pond, while another, Sky Mirror, is behind a steel fence.
The bill is being picked up by the Royal Parks Agency, a quango that gets £19 million a year in public funding. It refused to reveal the exact cost, claiming commercial confidentiality. But conservative estimates put it at more than £120,000 for the six months.
When two of the pieces were exhibited in Brighton last year, Kapoor wrote to the council with instructions on security. Artist Mocksim, who protested over the Brighton show, said art objects were rarely vandalised, "but ... if someone urinated in Marcel Duchamp's urinal in Tate Modern, that can be something you allow as a venting off.
"It seems rather pompous. This is the world we now live in - to show something is important you put a bunch of heavies around it." Audrey Simpson, who visited the sculptures, said she complained security was excessive compared with Brighton and a guard told her: "Brighton is not London."
A spokesman for the Serpentine Gallery, which is staging the exhibition with Royal Parks, said they had a "duty of care" to ensure the works' safety: "It is vital to ensure visitors can view it in its optimum condition. The main role of the security is to prevent impact from the many dogs in the park, as even light contact can damage their surface. The reflective surfaces have been achieved through many hours of polishing."
A Royal Parks spokeswoman said the five guards would be reduced to two at quieter times.

Nontrepreneurial idea: Invigilation Support Service

2010-08-28T13:48:00.005+01:00

I'm thinking that The Doomsbury Set should set up an Invigilation Support Service to provide company, sustenance and support for those invigilating art exhibitions. I envisage a small van loaded up with coffee, wine, bread, olives and a big lump of cheese travelling from gallery to gallery. Shoulder or foot massage might be offered. In addition we would come prepared to gossip about the other invigilators, numbers of visitors, quality of curation etc. As is our usual practice the Negative Business Model (NBM) would apply: instead of ‘customers’ paying for this service we, members of the impoverished Set, would donate an amount to them for the priviledge.

The History of Minimalism

2010-08-19T00:30:00.005+01:00

"The main interest in life and work is to become someone else that you were not in the beginning." Lenin's faction took the name Bolshevik (derived from the Russian word bol'she (больше) meaning "more" or "bigger") despite losing the vote and actually being the numerically smaller faction. It can be explained from the fact that they had won a vote at the congress on the composition of the Iskra editorial board. Though the term Bolshevik originated due to a procedural vote, it acquired an additional connotation as Lenin's faction "wanted more", i.e. were more radical than Mensheviks, who "wanted less". This was the way the terms were generally understood abroad. In English, for instance, the press for a number of years translated "Bolsheviks" as "Maximalists" and "Mensheviks" as "Minimalists".

I am standing on the pavement next to a set of traffic lights which have now turned to read.
If I turn to my right I am, now faced with ahand.
A painted hand on a board.
The board is, if I am fivefoot, the board is perhaps sevenfoot.
The hand is holding a gun.
The gun is as tall as me. (I)
I can see the top of the gun.
It is being held by a figure.
Who's body I can see.
'Busts' I think they are called
I can see a bust of a figure.
With no hair, but yet,
the board disects his face.
It is a man.
He is smoking an illegal cigarette let's say
And he is wearing blue tinted sunglasses.
He doesn't look happy to see me.
But yet, if he were lifesize he would probably be alot bigger than me.
His image so close to me is a curious-thing.
His aggression is a curious-thing.
The effort to paint such smoke,
The effort to paint such pattern if you like
Is done with the same aggression.
This is his patch.
This is his territory.
His territory sits opposite the New England Quarter
Whereby members of the public,
Members of the community let's say,
Are faced with his face on a daily basis.
Do they have weapons and narcotics to compete?
With his territory? Perhaps they don't.
What are the answers?
What can we do?
When a blight on the landscape,
One the cityscape is so-
Visual, so literal,
How does one act?
Re-act?
Is it not a form of Digital Realism?
Is it not Grand Theft Auto made visable?
Made Large.
Made incomprehensible.
Made violent.
Made aggressive?
Saying
"Whad tha f*ck do you want?"

Demands of the Nore Mutineers

12 May to 13 June, 1797

Here are Eight Articles of Demand presented to Admiral Buckner by the Nore mutineers. It should be noted that the Admiralty received them and immediately rejected them. The official reply being "All that could reasonably be expected by the seamen and marines has already been granted them. Their Lordships cannot accede any further requests."

Article 1
That every indulgence granted to the fleet at Portsmouth (Spithead) be granted to His Majesty's subjects serving in the Fleet at the Nore and places adjacent.

Article 2
That every man, upon a ship's coming into harbour (a certain number at a time so as not to injure the ship's duty) to go and see their friends and families; a convenient time to be allowed to each man.

Article 3
That all ships befeore they go to sea shall be paid all arrears of wages down to six months, according to the old rules.

Article 4
That no officer that has been turned down by any of His Majesty's ships shall be employed in the same ship again without consent of the ship's company.

Article 5
That when any of His Majesty's ships shall be paid, that may have been some time in commission, if there are any pressed men on board, that may not be in the regular course of payment, they shall receive two months advance to furnish them with necessaries.

Article 6
That an indemnification be made any men who have run and may now be in His Majesty's naval service and that they not be liable to be taken up as deserters.

Article 7
That a more equal distribution be made of prize money to the crews of His Majesty's ships and vessels of war.

Article 8
That the articles of war, as now enforced, require various alterations, several of which to be expunged therefrom; and if more moderate ones were held forth to seamen in general, it would be the means of taking off that terror and prejudice against His Majesty's service, on that account frequently imbibed by seamen from entering voluntarily into service.
The Committee of Delegates of the whole fleet assembled in council on board HMS Sandwich have unanimously agreed that they will not deliver up their charge until the appearance of some of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to ratify the same.

- Given on board HMS Sandwich by the delegates of the fleet, 20 May, 1797.

For whatever is truly wondrous and fearful in man, never yet was put into words or books.
