Its all happening at Arena tonight. Well, there’s also happenings at Blackburne House and 3345 Parr St but anyway.
Mercy are proud to present the third instalment of the ]BracketTHIS[ project.
For this exhibition, we have specially commissioned ten artists and invited five more to include recent work. While all of the artists are currently based in the North West of England, they are from diverse cultural backgrounds and have employed a range of different practices
to reflect on their pluralised and mobile social context.
Following the format of previous ]BracketTHIS[ shows, during the course of the exhibition four special events will take place within the gallery, attempting to bring the whole idea to life. For ]BracketTHIS[ 3, we are pleased to welcome the return of HIVE and Fiction, who will be presenting live electronica and brand new poetics on November 11 and 17 respectively. We are also pleased to host a special screening of artist’s film and video, curated by James Harding, on November 22. The exhibition will draw to a close by staging the first party of the Biennial’s closing weekend – a ‘cultural extravaganza’ of music and performance
