New Kids On Every Block

MAKING IT is proud to announce the new poly-venue gallery initiative which has just exploded in Sydney.

Young entrepreneurial curator duo Tony Curran and Luke Tipene have set up an artist run space where artists get exhibition space for free! An experimental artworld model, this project has been liaising with small business in Sydney for simple sponsorship arrangements and is currently hosting their debut appearence at World Bar's club room in King's Cross and future events are rumoured to be held in the elegant design studios of NMI in Chippendale. Emerging artists are strongly represented in the vision for the gallery, Mitchel Spider boasting the first so far.

However, more established practitioners in a huge range of visual and sonic media are to be involved as well. While it doesn't behave like a normal gallery with the white cube aesthetic WATCH THIS SPACE hopes to make the artworks more accessible to those who normally wouldn't have the luxury to visit galleries and project spaces.

While there are no fees to be paid for space rental WATCH THIS SPACE take a 20% commission on works sold which goes toward running costs of the organisation.
