About
The 2018/19 programme presents a new formation of Cubitt’s gallery space, designed and constructed by Mexico City-based artist Clemence Seiles.
The redesign works to create a long-term installation, providing a playful system of support and display. The new structure(s) will host, hold, make space for and adapt to the work of artists, and collectives, for commissions, film screenings, events and workshops.
The space will open this Autumn with propositions for future projects, including work by Adelita Husni-Bey and Serena Lee. It will also host events with W.A.G.E, The Voice of Domestic Workers and Deborah Findlater.
In addition to the open exhibition space, the projects and invitations initiated as part of this programme have different paces, access points, levels of visibility and timeframes. For the period of the 15-month 2018/19 programme the gallery will serve as a work space for The Voice of Domestic Workers - a migrant domestic worker union who will have a pragmatic stake in the building to use as required. A school in Finsbury Park and Cubitt Education will host collective project Schooling & Cultures working out of a disused classroom. A period of ongoing research by Cubitt and New York-based activist group W.A.G.E. will begin with a talk and workshop in November initiating a conversation about how to politicise and support the fair payment of artists.
