ah yeah that city square bird statue, i thought of it immediately when i saw that pic a few weeks ago.living near Park square and pass through it everyday, i can't believe that Leeds city council are not returning the newly restored Circe statue back to her old plinth for fear of chav metal thieves w/ acetylene torches and lump hammers smashing it and weighing it in! There's a police station 30m away on the next street FFS. I saw a tv prog which said Leeds had more cctv cameras than anywhere outside London, not a ranking to be proud of is it? We don't really do Art for the people in Leeds, although there's some great stone carvings on the old buildings, and Broadcasting House of course...

There was an amazing event in Leeds last month (end of May) that used the Dark Arches and the shopping district. It took 3 years of planning and cost half a million pounds. It featured productions from all the big companies in Leeds (Northern Ballet etc).
It was called OverWorlds and UnderWorlds. The underworlds part was based in the dark arches which is a cross section of tunnels that run under Leeds train station. Some 18billion bricks were used to construct it. back in the 18th century. I'd watch this video first which shows the productions in the arches. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-18122384 This is how it usually looks... image hosted on flickr

The Underworld part of the event took place in Leeds' Dark Arches, an amazing subterranean space where underground rivers run below brick-lined gothic arches which stretch into the distance. The subtle lighting emphasised the fact that it was difficult to see just how big the space actually was. You walked from arch to arch, and they contained a mixture of dance performance and small installations by the Quays. The story of Orpheus and Eurydice hung heavily in the air.
During the events... image hosted on flickr  20.5.12 5 Leeds OverWorlds and UnderWorlds Dark Arches 8 by donald judge, on Flickr It's hard to get your head around the image but its a projection of the Victoria quarters on the arches, below is the river..  image hosted on flickr  20.5.12 5 Leeds OverWorlds and UnderWorlds Dark Arches 7 by donald judge, on Flickr |
