BALTIC 39 I FIGURE TWO, an open submission exhibitionwhich allows artists working across all media to test works and ideas, or to develop works in progress within a public context. The exhibition will last for 5 weeks and will be made up of 10 projects by 10 artists, each lasting 5 days.
Week 1: Wednesday 6 August – Sunday 10 August 2014
Jude Crilly, Natalie Price Hafslund, Laura O'Neill
If a lesson on the fourth-order tensile strength coefficients of nuclear-hardened steel could make you realize the futility of your actions, I would instruct you – but the only thing that primitive minds like yours can understand is raw *power*!
Crilly, Price-Hafslund and O’Neill will present five exhibitions in five days to adhere to Viktor Shklovsky’s notion of making the stone stony. Each day they create and collapse work in order to habituate perception and understand material as more real than it actually is. Pausing for exhibitions. |
