Create, Observe, Perform in Helsinki


Create, Observe, Perform is a new exhibition on show at the Alkovi Galleria in Helsinki. Opening last night, the show was curated by Cardiff artists Dawn Woolley and James Moore, and includes Peter Bobby's new video work Curtain.
"Create, Observe, Perform forms the first part of an exchange programme between curators based in Cardiff, UK and Helsinki, Finland.

The first programme, curated by Cardiff based artists Dawn Woolley and James Moore, will be shown in Alkovi Gallery from 27th October to 4th November 2012.

The programme doesn’t have a theme or central idea, but brings together a wealth of artistic approaches to video art. From animation and construction to documentary and performance, the artists explore the creative potential of moving image.

The artists are both stylistically and geographically diverse, from the UK, USA, Sweden, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Canada, Norway and Argentina. Some of the artists featured in this programme have responded to an open call, others have worked with the curators on previous projects further selections were made in collaboration with Outcasting (online moving image gallery)."
