Today, we sent out details about ‘Supermarket’ to artists who we’ve either worked with before, or who’s work we like – asking if they would like to participate. This is going to be quite hard, as we can only realistically take the work of 15 artists to be part of the exhibition – any more would just be a visual overload.
I realise that this will upset artists who we’ve worked with in the past and who haven’t been invited. This was a difficult choice and it was by no means a judgement on the quality of work. It was simply ‘what will fit’.
The brief was ‘Bring a Box’ and this can be interpreted in any way. The artists have three weeks to send something to us if they want to be considered.
It feels so weird to be sitting at the other end of the table!
