28 MAY - 21 JUNE 2003
Group Show: Kenzee Patterson, Mark Booth, Cybele Cox
The initial intervention was a paste up of 4 photocopied works given to me by Tom Glenn (artist). The works where pasted up on the outside wall of MOP the night before the group show opened.
During the show, the roller door was opened and this allowed the paste-ups to be viewed alongside the work within the show.
The 4 panels where designed to comment upon the gallery building – to provide a contrast between the types of art shown within the building and the types of art which can be found in the streets – in this case graffiti art and paste-ups.
As these works where pasted anonymously the issue of authorship was not addressed – as nobody could recognize that the works where not the artists original - though in the future this is an avenue to explore.
