Kind of.”[8]The Folkestone Triennial was curated by Andrea Schlieker in 2008 and 2011,[9] and Lewis Biggs in 2014, 2017 and 2021.[9]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Announcing the 2021 artists, curator Lewis Biggs described the Triennial\u2019s connection with Folkestone by saying \u201cwe will treat the town as a gallery\u201d, adding it \u201chas to be about the context and history of Folkestone\u201d.[10]Community engagement and involvement with the development with the artworks is a key feature of the Triennial, including HoyCheong Wong\u2019s 2017 piece working with Folkestone\u2019s Islamic Cultural Centre – a relationship which will be extended for Wong\u2019s collaboration with the local Islamic community, artist Simon Davenport and architect Shahed Saleem\/Makespace for the 2021 Triennial.[11]Other pieces commissioned for 2021 with strong elements of community engagement include those commissioned through Pioneering Places East Kent[12] and funded by Arts Council England and National Lottery Heritage Fund inspired by the former site of Folkestone\u2019s Ship Street Gasworks. These include Jacqueline Donachie\u2019s piece inspired by a social club which remained on the derelict site long after it ceased production while Morag Myerscough is designing a gateway or \u2018welcome pavilion\u2019 for the former gasworks site.[13]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsEducational programme[edit]Economic impact[edit]Reception[edit]# 1 Tales of Time and Space – Folkestone Triennial 2008[edit]#2 A Million Miles from Home – Folkestone Triennial 2011[edit]#3 Lookout – Folkestone Triennial 2014[edit]Banksy\u2019s Art Buff[edit]#4 double edge – Folkestone Triennial 2017[edit]#5 The Plot – Folkestone Triennial 2021[edit]Funders[edit]References[edit]Educational programme[edit]The Triennial\u2019s significant educational programme has been growing since its first inception in the 2014 edition, which involved over 18,000 learners across more than 70 schools and 50 community groups. In 2017 this was further developed to 202 talks, tours, workshops and conferences through a schools, community and further and higher education programme.[14] In 2021 the Triennial will expand its footprint online through virtual tours and video content.[15]Economic impact[edit]According to the organiser, the direct and indirect impact of the Folkestone Triennial was worth more \u00a365 million in 2014,[16] including \u00a32m in grants and donations, \u00a32.7 million in visitor spend and \u00a359 million in media value.[17]Reception[edit]An independent survey was conducted after the 2014 Triennial, finding that 89.8% of visitors gave a good or excellent rating for the artworks; 96.3% rated the Folkestone Triennial as good or excellent.[18] In 2014, the Triennial attracted 119 articles in regional, national and international media, as well as 14 items of radio or television coverage and over 1.6 billion hits across more than 200 web articles,[19] generating a combined media value in excess of \u00a359m.[20]# 1 Tales of Time and Space – Folkestone Triennial 2008[edit]Inspired by Folkestone’s past, present and future the inaugural Triennial saw work displayed in Folkestone\u2019s beach, harbour, parks, marine promenade and historic buildings.[21]Artists included Christian Boltanski, Tacita Dean, Jeremy Deller, Tracey Emin, Langlands and Bell, Heather and Ivan Morison, Mark Wallinger and Richard Wilson. Works retained and still included in the Creative Folkestone Artworks collection include Tracey Emin\u2019s series of works, Baby Things, Mark Wallinger\u2019s Folk Stones, Patrick Tuttofuoco\u2019s FOLKESTONE, Richard Wilson\u2019s 18 Holes, Adam Chozko\u2019s Pyramid, Christian Boltanski\u2019s The Whispers, Pae White\u2019s Barking Rocks and Richard Wentworth\u2019s series, Racinated.#2 A Million Miles from Home – Folkestone Triennial 2011[edit]In 2011,\u00a0the theme highlighted an outward-looking facet of Folkestone and the town\u2019s place as \u201ca gateway to other cultures, politics, environmental warnings and the fundamental notion of how our shores contribute to our sense of place and belonging\u201d. Notable highlights included Cornelia Parker\u2019s Folkestone Mermaid – her own version of Copenhagen\u2019s \u2018Little Mermaid\u2019, with a local woman acting as a model for the sculpture. Parker\u2019s piece can still be viewed overlooking Folkestone\u2019s Sunny Sands as part of the permanent Creative Folkestone Artworks collection dotted across the town, along with works by Richard Wentworth, Hamish Fulton, Tonica Lemos Auad, A K Dolven, Paloma Varga Weisz, Ruth Ewan, Spencer Finch and Christina Iglesias.Additional artists presenting hailed from Algeria, Morocco, Kosovo, Israel, Egypt, Guyana, India, Brazil, Denmark, Spain, Germany and the USA.#3 Lookout – Folkestone Triennial 2014[edit]While Andy Goldsworthy was seen by some as the \u201cheadline act\u201d,[22] Berlin-based artist Michael Sailstorfer attracted most media attention by hiding \u00a310,000 of 24-carat gold bars on Folkestone beach,[23] with some of the 30 bars yet to be found despite the rush to dig.[24] Artists with works still featured in the permanent Creative Folkestone Artworks collection include Cezanne Charles and John Marshall (a.k.a. roofoftwo), Pablo Bronstein, Diane Dever and Jonathan Wright, Strange Cargo, muf Architecture, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Tim Etchells, Sarah Staton, Will Kwan and Yoko Ono, who contributed two pieces – Earth Peace and Skyladder 2014.[25]Banksy\u2019s Art Buff[edit]Renowned graffiti artist, Banksy, gatecrashed the 2014 Triennial, painting a mural called Art Buff on the side of Palace Amusements in Payers Park in October 2014. His website announced that the mural was \u201cPart of the Folkestone triennial. Kind of\u201d. It was soon vandalised with the addition of a phallic symbol, spray painted onto the previously empty plinth in the artwork.[26] It was then flown to the US to be sold two months after its creation.[27] In September 2015, a London judge \u2013 Richard Arnold \u2013 ruled that Banksy\u2019s mural Art Buff must be delivered to Creative Foundation (now known as Creative Folkestone)[28] from storage in New York, where it was being kept by the curator of a December 2014 exhibition of Banksy\u2019s works in Miami, at which it failed to sell.[29] It was finally returned to Folkestone in 2020, inspiring Creative Folkestone\u2019s celebration of creativity in the community, The Plinth.[30][31]#4 double edge – Folkestone Triennial 2017[edit]The \u2018double edge\u2019 theme in 2017 \u201cplays with ambiguity, dialogue and deceit,\u201d according to the curator, Lewis Biggs.[32] Audiences were tasked with exploring\u00a0why the world is the way that it is, how it might be, and how change is always possible. Issues explored included borders; thresholds; margins; the periphery; gateways and the liminal.Notable works in the 2017 Triennial which still reside as pieces in the Folkestone Artworks collection include Antony Gormley\u2019s Another Time XXI,\u00a0 Richard Woods\u2019s Holiday Home sequence, featuring model second homes by the sea, Bob and Roberta Smith\u2019s Folkestone is an Art School and Marc Schmitz and Dolgor Ser-Od\u2019s giant shell-cum-gramophone piece, Siren, which was described as an example of a work that \u201cseems to have fallen to Earth on the East Cliff\u201d.[33] Other remaining pieces in the Folkestone Artworks collection from the 2017 collection include works by Amalia Pica, Rigo 23, Diane Dever and the Decorators, Sol Calero, Michael Craig-Martin, Lubaina Himid, Gary Woodley, Bill Woodrow, David Shrigley and Studio Ben Allen, whose architectural piece, The Clearing, is still a feature of the first floor bar at Folkestone\u2019s Quarterhouse.Additional artists exhibiting at Triennial 2017 included Alex Hartley, Emily Peasgood, Nomeda and Gediminas Urbonas and HoyCheong Wong.[33]#5 The Plot – Folkestone Triennial 2021[edit]The theme in 2021 is \u2018The Plot\u2019, subtitled \u2018Urban myths and their relation to verifiable realities: the gap between the story and the materiality\u2019.[34] The first artwork to be unveiled for the 2021 Triennial is\/was Rana Begum\u2019s brightly painted new beach huts, replacing rundown chalets along the coast between Folkestone and Sandgate.Interactive sculptures – Skating Situations – at the mainline railway viaduct and the Harbour Arm is a collaboration between Turner Prize-Winning collective Assemble and local skate boarders.[9] The event will include 20 outdoor, newly commissioned public artworks by artists including Assemble, Rana Begum, Gilbert & George, Atta Kwami, Pilar Quinteros, and Richard Deacon.Funders[edit]2014 supported by The Roger De Haan Charitable Trust, Arts Council England, the Folkestone Estate, Kent County Council and Shepway District Council.[35]2017 sponsored by Saga and supported by The Roger De Haan Charitable Trust and Arts Council England along with Kent County Council, Shepway District Council and the Oak Foundation.[32]2021 supported by The Roger De Haan Charitable Trust, Arts Council England, Folkestone & Hythe District Council, Kent County Council, Oak Foundation, Henry Moore Foundation and EU Interreg North Sea Region Cupido.Individual works are often supported by specific funders: eg.
