From 6pm on Friday 16th November selected pieces of my work will be exhibited at a soon-to-be-announced venue in Birmingham as part of FRAME_birmingham.
FRAME_birmingham is an Arts Council funded, mac birmingham supported project by Elly Clarke/Clarke Gallery that sees unique and very small edition artworks by 42 local & international artists installed into a variety of businesses across the city as a means of bringing art to new audiences, new audiences to art and new contexts in which art can be shown. It is also about provoking and stimulating conversations about and around the artworks, by a variety of people in a variety of different places.
Launching at 6pm on 16th November 2012, frames will remain in place for three months, with work changing only when sold. projectframe.net will act as the mirror to show what is on display in the city. All work is also for sale, up to a maximum price of £750. Thanks to the partnership with mac Birmingham, all work will also be available to purchase via the Own Art scheme.
Yorks Bakery Cafe on Newhall Street in the city centre will act as the central hub during the three-month exhibition. Here you can find out more about the project or purchase tickets for tours led by Birmingham artists, curators and business owners as well as by members of the FRAME_birmingham team. And get your hands on some very tasty soups, snacks, stews and sweet things. And even drink some coffee.
I’ll announce on my website which pieces will be exhibited, where they’ll be located and how much they’ll cost once the project is publicly launched on 16th November. In the meantime there’s a launch party taking place at The Old Joint Stock on 16th November at 5:30pm.
