Adam Cruickshank: Lives and Works (sic)

  • Free
  • Exhibition

Lives and Works (sic) presents a range of printed editions from Cruickshank and various artists and writers, including Abbra Kotlarczyk, Am Stuart, Benjamin Woods, Carolyn Craig, Darcey Bella Arnold, Xingyu Echo Li, Joseph Grigely, Mitchel Cumming, Peter Tyndall, Scott Mitchell, Stuart Geddes, Zenobia Ahmed and Dennis Grauel.

This project extends upon Cruickshank’s previous explorations of text as a material, paratextual and performative aspect of all art practices, integral to the process of meaning-making in art. By incorporating text as a participatory medium, the exhibition invites a re-engagement with the ways we interpret artworks. The loose curatorial provocation of diffuse authorship extends the notion of the solo show into an always already collaborative experience.
