Exhibition continues: Saturday 31 August - Monday 2 September, 11-5pm

The exhibition is the culmination of an intensive year of discussion, thought and action by artists from backgrounds including fine art, architecture and design. The title, ‘Coordinates', arises from the range of disciplinary perspectives as well as the distinctly international nature of the cohort. The negotiation of, and between, these various points of reference is explored in the exhibition. The issues raised by such a grouping and its context is further pursued in ‘Longitude in Question', a programme of workshops and artist talks.
