In the Days of the Comet
Paperback
Publication Date: 18/01/2010
"British Art Show 7" is curated by Lisa Le Feuvre and Tom Morton and they have selected 39 artists on the grounds of their significant contribution to contemporary art in the last five years. All artworks included have been produced since 2005 and encompass sculpture, painting, installation, drawing, photography, film, video and performance, with many artists creating new works especially for the exhibition. "British Art Show 7" will mark a change in direction from previous years, moving away from the model of a survey show to an exhibition with a marked curatorial focus. Subtitled "In the Days of the Comet", "British Art Show 7" employs the motif of the comet to explore and draw together a set of concerns that thread their way through the practices of the selected artists. Here the comet alludes to the measuring of time, to historical recurrence, and to parallel worlds. Comets are also commonly understood as harbingers of change, and fittingly the exhibition will evolve as it moves from city to city, revealing new works at different venues, creating a unique exhibition in each host city.
