What's new: Term one 2012

side way

A new installation space at Artstation, curated by YAC

In October 2011 YAC (Artstation's Youth Art Committee) launched their new space with their event and installation All of a Heap. This was a collaborative art making performance in which artists were allocated various restrictions on their bodies and behaviour while they made artworks using found materials. They then made the first installation in side way, the Print Room window on Ponsonby Road.

Now YAC invites visual artists to submit proposals for side way.

If you are under 26 and have some drawing, object, jewellery, moving image, painting, text or textile work you'd like to show in a window on Ponsonby Rd (!) email your idea for your use of the space and some images of your work with a brief artist statement to youthartcommittee@gmail.com

YAC is also looking to recruit new YAC members who will have the skills and determination that they have! They are looking for people who have ideas, are willing to work, are keen and committed. They usually meet every fortnight at Artstation in Ponsonby for a couple of hours (in the evening), and meet more often when projects require it.

If you feel you fit the bill and are keen to apply, then please send an email saying a little about yourself and what interests you about YAC to youthartcommittee@gmail.com
