The Late Shows, Friday 15 - Saturday 16 May 2009

Venue Details

Opening Times:

Saturday only
Open 7 – 11pm

Description:

Mushrooms and funghi are on the menu at Workplace Gallery. As part of a unique, interactive artwork by Jo Coupe you are invited to experience a series of ‘living sculptures’ created from rare mushrooms and fungi. During the evening Coupe will cook the artworks inviting the you to try.

The event unifies certain conceptual elements of Coupe’s practice including her fascination with unusual mediums and her ability to bring intensity to the inopportune, transient moments in the life.

Workplace Gallery is another new addition to The Late Shows line-up. This commercial gallery space is based in the town centre of Gateshead and represents a portfolio of emerging and established artists through both exhibitions and art fairs.
