The last few days, with the enormous help from Bruce at Basement Arts projects Leeds, I have spent the bulk of my time trying to work out a plan of action. Last Friday, I received an email from the organisers of the Supermarket art fair in Stockholm, saying that they had accepted my application. This is a combined application between the group I run ( SCI) and the Leeds group.
Why the joint application? Two main reasons… Our application stood out from the others ( a criteria on the application form!) We span two cities and have a huge bank of artists to choose from.
The other major one – funding. In theory, the more minds working on this, the more likely we are to come up with a solution. ( in theory – yes)
We obviously can’t take all of the artists in the groups, so the hard part now is deciding who’s work would best fit the brief……
