Showing ' Ha Ha Road' Bank Street Arts - Sheffield
This September, Bank Street Arts in Sheffield presents 'Ha Ha Road’, curated by Dave Ball and Sophie Springer. The show lives up to its name, pondering on those evasive elements, which make certain works funny. Featuring artists including Colin Guillemet, Debbie Lawson, Tobias Sternberg, Ed Young, and Dan Witz (left; 'Pranks 2004'), with contemporary works that cover video, installation, sculpture, painting, and performance, the show takes it name from London’s ‘Ha Ha Road’ in Greenwich. The title also has a secondary meaning, referring to a sunken boarder, a boundary that leaves the surrounding view unaffected – and that, in a way, is about as elusive as humour.Ha Ha Road is showing at Bank Street Arts, 32-40 Bank Street, Sheffield S1 2DS from 11th September -12th October 2008.

Film - Steven Sebring 'Patti Smith: Dream of Life' - NYC
Steven Sebring’s ‘Patti Smith: Dream of Life’, is showing for a short, sharp stint during August at New York's Film Forum. While the movie is described as an ‘intimate portrait of a woman caputured over time’, this, of course, is no ordinary woman; this is Patti Smith; she’s more of a legend. The film includes Smith’s own and has no specific order. Think, a gritty but great organised chaos. So far reviews have been impressive. '...Dream of Life' and has been described as a ‘spellbinder’ that’s ‘charming’ and ‘expressively shot’. Indeed, it’s likely this is a must see for anyone with an inkling of interest for rock, music and art over the past few decades.
Steven Sebring’s ‘Patti Smith: Dream of Life’, showing at Film Forum, Film Forum, 209 West Houston Street, New York, NY 10014, 10th - 19th August 2008.
