Inaugurated in 2009, Cities Methodologies is a pan-UCL initiative to showcase innovative methods of urban research. Through exhibits and events, it draws together undergraduate, masters, and doctoral research, alongside work produced by academics, and the wider community of urban researchers. Proposals are invited from UCL staff, students and alumni, and other researchers who are developing and using innovative methods to understand cities and urbanization. See www.ucl.ac.uk/urbanlab. Deadline for proposals 1 May 2012.

Meekyoung Shin is showing in Sinopticon: Contemporary chinoiserie in contemporary art, a multi-venue exhibition at Saltram House, National Trust, Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery and Plymouth College of Art, from 28 April - 7 July 2012. See www.sinopticon.org.


Slade alumni Antonakis Christodoulou and Margarita Myrogianni are showing in Petrosphere, as part of the Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art at Skypark, Space 162B, 8 Elliot Street, Glasgow from 20 April - 7 May 2012. See www.glasgowinternational.org.

Petrosphere is part of an ongoing series of projects between five artists based in Glasgow, and five artists based in Athens. Understanding that these cities share strong similarities as catalysts for ideas and places to live and practice, Petrosphere becomes a platform to explore this through dialogue, contradiction and artistic play.
