Guests and Hosts

About

The first exhibition in Number Nine Guildhall Road toasts the ghosts of the former hotel and considers the transient nature of temporary exhibitions with a gleefully sinister edge. Featuring work and performances from Betterplace Portraiture, Annabel Dover, Ceal Floyer, Jessica Harby, Hayley Lock, Dane Mitchell, Ben Rivers, James Smith. Institutions are both hosts and guests at different sites; artists' works are given homes but fleetingly. The gallery turns into a hotel for artworks from Northampton to New Zealand, with changing seasons of guests where memories are still lingering — the artists use mediums and could turn into mediums.
