Airfield

This exhibition catalogue was published to coincide the Airfield exhibition held at Compton Verney between March and June 2007. Kate Whiteford's work brings together the history and geography of chosen sites which she encapsulates by drawing directly onto the landscape. In her work Whiteford has developed an interest in the relationship between landscape and history and was inspired by Brown's spatial understanding and ability to manipulate sightlines in order to create narratives. His vistas were constructed to be seen in succession rather than entirety, which led to Whiteford's use of aerial reconnaissance in the development of the project. Airfield 2007 explores signs and markings invisible at ground level, but revealed from the air.
