featuring: uhu – Shannon Reed – Jack Jeweller – Lisa Lerkenfeldt (Jake Walker) – Billy Gruner – Matthew Hopkins – Jonathan Hochman – Joseph Allen Shea – Jesse Hogan – Nick Briggs
OPENING THURSDAY NIGHT 29th March 6-9PM
Themes of autonomy, countercultural experiments and the eco-aspirations of communes are central to the next installation at 55 Sydenham Rd.
Our Concept – to present a temporary autonomous zone. A library type situation in which the publication is to be utilized for the means of research within the space”. The structure to house the library and launch, built in parts in the studio, then installed at 55, provides a platform for free thinking & research derived from a DIY punk ethos. Following instructions given in How To Build Your Own Living Structures by Ken Isaacs, published in 1974, the artists re-assemble the design as a library platform, employing anarchist Hakim Bey’s sociopolitical tactics to create temporary spaces/structures that elude from formal structures of control.
