We are looking for an artist or a collective that is looking for exhibition space for a large work or installation. The vitrine gallery is a new space designed into 1 Liverpool Street, a building currently under construction, designed by Eric Parry Architects, and on a road with large footfall.
We are looking for ideas that speak to the local landscape, communities & history & to think about the cultural, social & physical archaeology of the surrounding area
This space is a vitrine gallery which does not need to be managed, nor does there need to be events to bring the community into the space as it is not a unit you can go into.
PLEASE NOTE:
– It is a large window gallery, which will be in a very prominent location in the heart of the City of London, which will have extremely high footfall and visibility
– Viewable from the street only (not from the sides)
– Track lighting installed around the inside edge
– A double gang socket is accessible behind the back access panel
– You will be responsible for installing (and maintaining) your own artwork if you are selected.
– The artwork is (and remains yours) throughout the period of display.
– Drawings shown here are for illustrative purposes only. Details & dimensions of the completed vitrine space may differ.
Please only contact Hypha Studios with any requests for information or queries related to this opportunity. Contacting the design team, contractors, or any other parties could lead to disqualification from the process.
