Market Gallery is turning 25!! To honour this milestone we invite you to a week of events in celebration of Market's history and future, orbiting around two key prompts:
to consent not to be a single being / the future and past must be superstitious
Reflecting on the changing nature of artist-run organising and artist-run initiatives, this programme stages a series of discursive and performative events responding to the urgent socio-political, economic & ecological concerns of our times. Together we will explore alternative value metrics, collective action, resonant practices, ineffable dreams and movements towards one another. We will move through a week spanning workshops, screenings, talks and collective study, culminating in a night of live performances & music.
We have additionally commissioned 3 printed works that respond to our central prompts by Malekian Cloughton, again+again (Alison Scott and Rosie Roberts), and India B. Along with a poster & programme designed by Oliver Pitt, as well as a programme introduction and bibliography from Market Gallery's committee, these make up a mailout package which will be freely available as an add-on with an event ticket.
