One Minute Week

Artist Neville Gabie will be spending the next 4 months in Antarctica with the British Antarctic Survey as their artist in residence at Halley Research Station. Situated on the Brunt Ice Shelf this is the first time an artist has been allowed to spend the whole summer season at the base. During that time Neville will update this blog with a one minute film each week. This project has been initiated in collaboration with Picture This.

Neville Gabie

With a background in sculpture, Neville Gabie’s practice has always been driven by working in response to specific, usually urban, contexts beyond the studio. Motivated by a personal need to understand his own sense of place, Gabie’s interest is in establishing a working relationship within a particular environment as a means of considering its physical, cultural or emotional significance.  His work is included in the Arts Council and Tate Gallery collections.

Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, [1959] Neville Gabie studied sculpture at the Royal College of Art in London.
