Description
The Bureau for the Validation of Art will be in attendance on the 19 May between 10-3pm. The Bureau, presented by the Women's Art Activation System (WAAS) is a private performance artwork featuring artists Sharon Bennett and Sarah Dixon as Officials from the Bureau.
At the Bureau, you have the opportunity to submit work for Validation. Using a series of preset questionnaires, the officials will make a decision on whether the work presented is Valid as art, and provide an official stamp and docket recording the outcome. Visitors to SIte Festival can book a Validation by emailing waas@thewaas.org .
Validations take around 30 minutes and the ticket is £20. There is also a chance to discuss the notion of Validation and the gatekeepers of art, with the artists after the performance.
