It’s Semi-Permanent time of the year again, and with the SP conference comes interesting exhibitions.
This year there is one show in particular we are quite excited about. The etcc exhibition. “a series of exhibitions that are remixed and remixable”….LEGALLY. And that’s the point. This exhibition gives artists the chance to pick Creative Commons licensed imagery and create an artwork based on the imagery, without the copyright police on their back.
I’ll leave the finer details to come from the etcc folk, but we are keen to see what some of our regular favourites like Beastman, Phibs, Numskull, Ben Frost, Mark Alsweiler, Mini Graff and many many more, come up with. See below for more info and opening details.
In? 2011? etcc? will? host? three? consecutive? exhibitions? in? Sydney,? Brisbane? and? Melbourne? featuring? a? body? of? new? works? that? explore? the? realities? of? copyright? in? the? visual? arts.? By? hanging? the? polarized? copyright? debate? on? the? gallery? wall? the? works? challenge? piracy,? appropriation,? inspiration,? legal? licensing?and?the?freedom?to?create.
Opening night:
Friday 13th May, 6-9pm
