ASC/0002 LUKE JERRAM
Luke Jerram is seeking partners for a significant public artwork. Aeolus - an Acoustic Wind Pavilion, is an ambitious new work created by UK artist Luke Jerram (
www.lukejerram.com). Aeolus was the ruler of the four winds in Greek mythology. Aeolus is a giant singing sculpture that responds to the wind, providing a wonderful audio-visual experience. It is a spectacular optical and acoustic pavilion that has been developed by Jerram and a specialist team of engineers from the University of Southampton. Fabricated in steel and the size of a small house, it is the outcome of research into Aeolian harps and sound chambers. Just like wind turbines, it relies on the wind to animate it. Aeolus is touring the UK in 2011 and will be visited by thousands, on windy hilltops and urban wastelands. Download an information pack at www.aeolus.org.uk. There are opportunities for organisations to be involved and benefit from the international profile that involvement brings. "The work already has significant funding in place and we now need support, either in cash or in kind, to take this exciting new work on tour and share it with audiences throughout the country". Contact: Carolyn Black. Address: Pervasive Media Studio, Leadworks, Anchor Square, Harbourside, Bristol BS1 5DB. Tel.: 0117 9157237. E-mail: info@lukejerram.com

Sponsors will benefit from:

    Substantial national and international press coverage
    Corporate hospitality events and conference profiling
    Full accreditation (logos and company name) online, in press releases and in all printed materials
    Diverse audiences - Aeolus will be seen by thousands of people

ASC/0003 PATTY WILLIAMS
Patty Williams offers sponsorship opportunities in connection with a sculpture project, The Four Horses. The pieces are four life size, head and neck, sculpted and mosaiced horses; the subject, our diverse relationship with animals. "This project is a culmination of my thoughts and feelings so far. I've used the horse because it's both wild and domesticated. We 'connect' with this animal. The individual titles are Freedom, Control, Domesticity and Death. The working title for the whole project is Remorse. The pose and mosaicing material specifically reflect each title, eg 'Freedom' (85% complete) - strong and unbowed, mane flying back, the 'messenger' has arrived. The small flint stones from the south coast (some with fossils) I've used, have an energy and feel that enhances the sense of liberty. The second piece, 'Control', is based on the physicality of a thoroughbred. The natural black stones enhance its powerful energy, but it will be tight and concise to emphasise our desire to control, with a hint of madness in the eyes. 'Domesticity' - the pose emphasises a sense of unbalance, with man-made broken china to represent a smothering of natural instincts - sense numbing, sad, idiotic. Finally 'Death': highly reflective, compelling to view. Between each cut piece will be a vibrant coloured joint. Its reflective nature will leave little doubt as to whom has caused its demise. All four pieces must be exhibited as a group; each connects to the next. I am currently negotiating for exhibition space in relevant venues. I've worked part time since starting this project in January 2010. Based on current progress I will finish in eighteen months if I work on it full time, which will require living expenses and transport costs for exhibitions - an estimated cost of £17,000. For interested sponsors I offer advertising space in conjuction with the exhibits and any other requirements that suit us both. For more information, photos and viewing of the first piece, contact me". Contact: Patty Williams. Address: Flat 2, 12a High Street, Arundel, West Sussex BN18 9AB. Tel.: 01903 885263.

ASC/0004 PUBLIC SCULPTURE
Sponsorship is sought to create moulds for two sculptures which would be suitable for public display once cast. Both are figurative works, one entitled Renaissance. Details: 'Renaissance' - water feature (figure height 6 ft. 6 ins, width 4 ft, depth 2 ft 6 ins.). 'Renaissance' meaning revival, second youth, regeneration and rejuvenation by cooling water, is designed to have water flowing from the vessel over the figure, and could be adapted to be suitable for various locations. At present Renaissance is in plaster prior to moulding and casting. It is available to be cast in bronze, resin, or stone effect. The other sponsorship opportunity is to fund the mould for nine different life size sculptures of the Arctic Tern, which could form the basis from which sculptures could be built up for interior or exterior locations. Much more detailed information and illustration is available at the sculptress's website. Contact: Angela Munslow. Address: Mayfield Studio, 65 Station Road, Alsager, Stoke-on-Trent ST7 2PD. Tel./fax: 01270-873919. E-mail: angela@figurativeart.co.uk.
