| Dallas Seitz: Hunted - the cannibalism of colonial collectorexia
Pump House Gallery is pleased to present Dallas Seitz's first solo show in a UK public gallery, which will include a number of significant new commissioned works. Moving between the mediums of video, sculpture, drawing and photography Seitz investigates the processes of hunting and collecting as a form of colonization and obsession. Though the artist's practice is largely conceptual, much of his work originates from the personal. Often drawing on his own family, upbringing, and memories Seitz moves towards psychological and political terrains - exploring the wider motivations, intentions and implications behind the act of collecting. HUNTED (the cannibalism of colonial collectorexia) features a variety of artworks in a number of different media including films, images, handmade objects and bronze and glass sculptures.

Iggle Piggle co-star 'fired over suit complaint'
In another incident in May 2006, Mr Blake says he suffered pelvic injuries after being asked to lean over for long periods while wearing the pink and brown bear suit. After visiting hospital he was signed off work for a week with an injured pelvis. Mr Blake added: "I do believe in my heart of hearts that if I didn't mention anything about the suit or the verbal abuse, I would still be working at Ragdoll now. "I complained that the choreography caused me pain but I was told to carry on regardless. "It was fun being a teddy bear, it was a fun job. If I had just shut my mouth and took the abuse, I would still be there." In The Night Garden is a BBC children's television series, particularly aimed at babies and preschool children, produced in 2005 by Ragdoll Productions.

The RiverWalk itself is being extended into the Historic Third Ward, a rejuvenating warehouse district. A new master plan for the downtown envisions a dense, walkable mix of additional entertainment venues and housing; removal of an old freeway spur that cuts off the north side of the city from its central business district; a year-round fruit and vegetable market in the Third Ward; and a trolley or light rail loop to connect major activities. On the lakefront, the Milwaukee Art Museum is building a $50 million addition designed by the Spanish-born architect Santiago Calatrava. With its cabled pedestrian bridge, glassy galleria and bird-in-flight roof, the expansion is a dramatic departure from the traditional architecture that has defined the city. Also under way on the lakefront: a new state park; construction of a three-masted schooner, which will serve as a floating classroom; a $6 million environmental education and visitor center; and improvements to the grounds of Summerfest, the city's popular music festival.
