“THREE ADJOINING SPACES WITH MANIFOLD EDGES”
Helen Grogan
29 May → 4 July 2015
THREE ADJOINING SPACES WITH MANIFOLD EDGES uses sculptural, choreographic and filmic processes as means to articulate/activate space.
Encompassing the Front Space, Gallery 1 and Back Space galleries, an overlaid SETTING engages the architectural parameters of these rooms as well as the continuously shifting occurrences taking place within them. This project is re-installed intermittently throughout the 5-week exhibition duration. Two live concerts incorporate sculpture-specific, space-specific scores that facilitate observation through action.
CONCERT 1: Saturday 6 June, 1pm
CONCERT 2: Saturday 20 June, 1pm
Performers: Matthew Day, Simon MacEwan, Nikos Pantazopoulos, Geoff Robinson, Charlie Sofo, Anna Varendorff, Isadora Vaughan, Helen Grogan amongst others.
