The closing reception for Space is the Place takes place today at 18.00 in the NCAD gallery, hope to see you all there. Following on the success of the live ‘Bench Project’ twittered  from Manchester we will have another live event from 12.00 with Glenn Loughran creating a window drawing on the topic of ‘Precarity and the University’.

Manchester psychogeographers the Loiterers Resistance Movement have invaded a bench in central manchester for 24 hours and are twittering their adventures live directly to the NCAD gallery in Dublin for Space is the Place. Check it out here

Space is the Place is an exhibition I’m curating of documentation of artistic practices which intervene in public space. The focus is on ephemeral, temporary works which take place out of a gallery setting, living on only in their documentation. The exhbition includes 26 artists and artists groups and it’s been a great privilege putting together this collection of works most of which I’ve admired for a long time.

It takes place in the NCAD gallery from the 27th Aug- Sept 1 as an official Dublin Hub event for ISEA 2009 with a closing reception on Monday 31st at 18.00-20.00 in the gallery.
