Right, we have our first show of 2010 under our belts already – hurrah for us!!
The show launched last Tuesday and runs all the way until 26th February.
As shows go, this one was relatively straight forward. For a change.
It was a welcome change of pace (and scale) from our Volte show in December, and gave us a chance to get back to basics. We were able to refine our brief, our work delivery and hanging processes, and our communication with exhibitors in a way we haven’t been able to since our first show last July.
This time we partnered up with a council funded project in Dudley called “Art Space”. It was great for us to see how an extention of our practice could function.
The “ArtSpace” project has seen a empty shop unit in Dudley be transformed into an operational exhibition and community workshop space. It seems to have been a success locally, becoming quite a little hive of activity during workshop hours. While we were setting up we came across some trully wonderful creative local people who have previously been without a forum for their practice, and Art Space has been providing that forum.
It really is a tradgedy that “Art Space’s” occupation ends in March.
for anyone who is interested, in our show or the Artspace project the gallery is located here: 203, High Street, Dudley, DY1 1PT
