SUMMARY:Warrington Pyramid & Parr Hall: Warrington Pyramid: Business As Usu
 al
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition runs Friday\, 2 October\, 2015 to Saturday\, 31 Octo
 ber\, 2015\nPart of Warrington Contemporary Arts Festival\n\nMarketing and
  networking are often thought to be dirty practises within certain areas o
 f the arts. With many believing commercial success is akin to selling out 
 and a lack of conceptual rigour\, in that an artists practise having been 
 compromised due to being solely focused on monetary gain or fame. The roma
 ntic notion of the poor artist slaving away in the garret is still applica
 ble today\, poverty and struggle equating to realness and sincerity.\n\nTa
 king the conceptual bearing of the business card as an art object\, and th
 at artists marketing themselves is a necessary almost performatory element
  of their practises\, ‘Business As Usual’ will consider the role and s
 ignificance of artists networking. The exhibition will also ask how much i
 mportance dealers\, collectors\, curators and gallerists play in determini
 ng success\, or whether artists themselves are solely or collectively resp
 onsible for carving out their own futures. In an age where curators now pr
 ocure artists from social media websites such as Facebook and Twitter\, 
 ‘Business As Usual’ also presents an archaic practise in an increasing
 ly digital world.\n\nThe exhibition will feature the work of over one hund
 red artists\, listed below. This second exhibition in a series of the show
 s\, ‘Business As Usual’ will continue to travel around different galle
 ries across the UK.\n\nPio Abad\, Zoe Anspach\, Siobhan Barr\, Paul Barsch
