BAM BAM BAM at Wolstenholme Creative Space. Starting from 7 April 2011 over 3 Weekends.
Twenty one artists from across the UK will present a solo show in each of the seven gallery spaces.
The marathon of solo exhibitions begins on Thursday 7th April with seven unique solo shows, the following week, Thursday 14th April, the next seven artists’ exhibitions open, with the final seven opening on Thursday 21st April.
All the artists involved will be experimenting with space, medium and technique. The exhibitions promise to be a mix of some of the most exciting and original contemporary art by some of the art world’s rising stars.
Promising to be challenging, thought provoking and relentless, Bam Bam Bam is an opportunity to see a mixture of what’s happening in the selected artist’s studios right now, a self curated glimpse into their current practice. The artists have been given no common theme, no limit on imagination, no accompanying essay, just the four gallery walls to show their work.
