- Summary:
-
"The exhibition title refers to the exchange of ideas implicit in the act of communication between artists, and between curators and artists.The curators have sought to take this exchange as an entry into a network of connections between artists that forms an idiosyncratic map of the material, conceptual and aesthetic concerns of this particular group. Like a Chinese wisper of sorts. Individuals in a social world are distinct from consumers; we depend on a layer of networks along which a sence of community is developed. Community values and notions of individual self worth are built on relationships and our sense of place - what we commonly call social fabric. Thic structure of multi-connected relationships forms an information economy where exchange itself is the ontological force in social life. [This exhibition] is about recognising the value of this engagement between peers that artists develop as part of their practice ... This exhibition values connection and exchange as a slippery essential element in our art world"--Page preceding the last.
