THE FIFTH annual 126 gallery Annual Members’ Show, is currently running at the 126 gallery on Queen Street, and runs until Saturday February 4.
The show will pay tribute to pre-eminent curator Walter Hopps’ seminal 36 Hours project which was held at The Museum of Temporary Art in Washington in 1978.
Opening initially with a blank gallery, the project allows any 126 member to deliver a single new piece of work to the gallery, without fear of censorship or rejection, whereupon it will be hung there and then by a member of the 126 board.
The show will be inclusive, making no distinction between artists or selection of works. 126 will adhere to this framework in an attempt to explore curatorial models and boundaries, and experiment with exhibition formats.
126 will accept work in any medium and in any (reasonable ) size. It is not necessary to make a written submission, however if you feel your piece may have specific or unusual installation requirements, it is advised to contact 126 beforehand.
The drop-off dates are January 12, 13, 14; January 18 to 21; and January 25 to 28, from 1pm to 6pm. For more information contact 091 - 569871, [email protected], or see www.126.ie
