Includes launch party of Trade’s new exhibition space – 7pm on Friday 18th Feb The Perception Instruction positions two artworks together: Richard Paul’s The Stereo Realist 2011 and David Sherry’s Open 2008. Placing these two artworks together, at a very basic level, encourages us to look for patterns and similarities between the artworks, which may appear incidentally or intentionally. From the outset the works have little in common, aside from the fact that they are both video works. The Perception Instruction is (or will be) created out of accidental and intentional connections exclusive to the pairing of these particular artworks. Between the two artworks we might see an erratic dialogue, a complementary dialogue or any shade of grey in between. As the perception of the work within this setup has a focus on physical experience of the artworks in the gallery, the press release will not describe the artworks any further only to give some additional information and some assumptions which may be useful when in the gallery. Trade is an artist-run gallery based in Nottingham. Trade Gallery has been developed to provide additional routes of engagement and criticism with contemporary art, through exhibitions, events, articles and online interviews. www.tradegallery.org
