FRACAS 2021 continues Articulate’s experiment with exhibition practice begun with FAIRISLE, FERAL, FERRET, FERMENT and FROLIC FREEZE in previous years.
- locate the parts of Articulate’s spaces that you like, then develop an artwork for those that are available for your group (or the other way around).
- work in an architectural space that is already altered by the earlier installation of other work, and which will be altered again when the group that comes after you installs around you.
- participate as an artist and audience member, and/or as an art writer, group organizer, invigilator, documenter, etc., as you wish.
FRACAS PROGRAM
The work of each group will be on public exhibition for two weeks - except for the first and last groups, Group 1 & Group 7, whose work will be open to the public for only one week (and whose fees are adjusted accordingly). Each group will install in a space already occupied by the previous group and overlap with the following group by one week. We aim for 10 artists per group.
FRACAS KEY DATES

We encourage you to come to all six openings to see how your work and other artists' works are affected by their changing contexts.

We also want a mix of small and large works that are installed by you with regard to their location - have a conversation with us if you think your planned work needs some negotiation.

As well as installing your own work, you are asked to come to an advance meeting for your Group. During your exhibition period, we ask you to help sit the space for 3 hours or assist with your opening.
FRACAS FEE
Artist fees are $120 ($60 for Group1 & 7), and go towards covering rent, modest opening costs and modest photographer's fees. (Note: The photographer will be asked to document the relationships between works rather than focusing on separate works, so please also take your own images too.)
