Shift - reflections in time and place 

Exhibition extended to August 31st
CLOSING NIGHT VIEW - Friday August 29th 6-9pm

Schwartz Gallery returns with the second installment of ‘Flux – transgressions in time and place’, its very successful opening show, in a very exciting and larger space directly next to the space where the first show was held. The space for the first show has since been partitioned into live-work studios.
‘Shift - reflections in time and place’ uses this migration and reconstitution of spatial relationships to extend the ideas worked through in the first show. Imminent change and endings are supplanted with reflections,echoes and new beginnings. Physical and imagined places, temporal divisions, traces and memories are again traversed and interpreted through contemporary fine art practice. This second installment brings together five artists from the first show with five new artists creating a further layer and dialogue between what has already taken place and what is now being created.

Simon Atkinson, Gabriel Birch, Panayiotis Delilabros, Ismail Erbil, Sumer Erek, Kit Merritt, Patrick Michalopoulos, Samantha Mogelonsky, Paula Naughton, Mary Yacoob.
