ALPTRAUM AT CELL PROJECT SPACE

Last Friday [DoR] attended the private view of Alptraum, a touring artist led project. Starting in Washington DC, the exhibtion will travel across the globe to Cell Project Space, London, touring to Berlin in March/April 2011, Los Angeles, in May/June 2011 and 'blank projects', Cape Town, August 2011.

The event was well attended with live music from Berlin based hard phych rock band, The B-Men and Cackle, a prog group from L.A.

The artists exhibiting were invited to submit a piece of work demonstrating physical gesture, hand made quality and personal mark making. Many of the artists would not be used to making work in this way, it would not be part of their usual artistic practice, but the theme allows a more traditional or innocent process of developing work.

The project explores and draws on communication between artists and develops a dialogue across disciplines, subjects and cultures, creating a collective of personal experience.
