March 2012 – ALLOTMENT 2
TROVE at mac birmingham, launching on 28th January – 9th September 2012
For TROVEs second ALLOTMENT exhibition, a new cabinet is being added to the plot. The first, designed by Sophie Bancroft included artists Anna Francis, Matthew Robinson and Milk, Two Sugars. The second cabinet, designed by Kate Spence, will include the works of Liz Hingley, Bharti Parmar and Helen Snell, while Will Kendrick’s gets added to Sophie’s initial cabinet.
ALLOTMENT at mac birmingham is an innovative programme which sees the Arena Gallery divided into plots and tended by independent curators, artists and creative groups. By extending the opportunity to curate to a wider community, the ALLOTMENT plots are imagined as a space to identify, profile and nurture the region’s new and emerging visual art talent.
Other plot holders include: Dan Auluk, Clarke Gallery, BCU MA Curation students, mac staff, Moonbeams, Next Generation, Sparrow+Castice and TROVE
