The Centre for Lens Arts and Science Interaction CLASI

THE FINAL SEASON

Coordinated by Head of Photojournalism, Paul Duerinckx, ‘Vetch Field: The Final Season’ followed Swansea City Football club as they moved from their historic home ground 'Vetch Field' into a new purpose built stadium in the city centre. Incorporating the work of many different photographers and, therefore, a considerable range of viewpoints and responses, this project touches on the club itself, the community that supports it and the space that surrounds it. The project concluded at the end of the final season at the 'Vetch' in 2005 with the transition from the old stadium to their new home, culminating in an exhibition of the work at the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea in 2006 alongside an accompanying joint publication with CLASI and Swansea CC.
