Not the easiest of economic and political moments to embark on an ambitious new community arts venue perhaps, but the management of Kestle Barton, situated on the Lizard Peninsula, would seem to have taken out some really sensible financial 'insurance', in the form of holiday lets and self-sustainability programmes, with which to underpin a wide-ranging and remarkably enterprising future programme of artistic events. Situated on the fifty acres of farmland purchased 5 years ago from a retired 80 year old farmer, the main barn will become a dedicated gallery space, the other buildings permanent and visitor accommodation while the land, employing radical new crop and conservation practices, is seen as providing the basis of food for the whole community and even beyond. It's a lot to get off the ground all in one go though, so the initial series of art events planned for this summer, prior to the venue's full launch in Spring 2011, is seen by Curatorial Director Riyya Bread (formerly of Truro's Lemon Street Gallery) as being comparatively modest in scale. Even so, a programme that starts with photographer Patrick Shanahan's intensely atmospheric images of the post- mining landscape in Cornwall ( Rupture) and ends, in October, with an Andrew Lanyon installation entitled, intriguingly, 'Von Ribbentrop in St. Ives', would seem to be going in a more than interesting direction!
