VERSUS with The Mutual and IRONBBRATZ
Tuesday 1 June - Saturday 26 June 2010
Market Gallery is pleased to present VERSUS, an experimental group residency project which investigates collectivism, collaboration and competition. The VERSUS project will feature THE MUTUAL and IRONBRATZ, two artist-run initiatives consisting of over 30 emerging artists
between the two of them. The two groups will occupy Market Gallery's two spaces over a four week period of production, research, events, performance, and exhibitions, all of which will be driven by the GAMEMASTER: Market Gallery.
The project is intended to playfully address and investigate issues of competition in gallery and artistic practice, issues of group identities, and issues relating to merit and value judgments common to the art world. Market will be publicly posting these briefs/assignments and 'scoring' each of the groups progress over the course of the residency. We invite you to come by the spaces throughout the residency to witness this process and to keep abreast of all the happenings as they occur by referring to our website and/or on Market Gallery's Facebook Fan Page.
See how the collectives are finding the project on their blogs:
