Event by Brisbane Visual Arts Advocacy and ARI Remix Project – Living Archives, Artist-Runs Past Present Future
Public · Anyone on or off Facebook
Join us on the 3rd of March at 6pm for a livestreamed discussion on Brisbane Artist Run Inititives (ARI’s) with very special guest Paul Andrew.
Paul is an artist, writer, researcher, curator, and massive advocate of artist-led activity in Brisbane, and across Queensland. He runs ARI Remix – an online resource that has diligently archived Queensland Artist Run Initiatives from the 1980s to present day. He is the editor and publisher of EXTRA Zine – an anthology series that traces the memory of exhibitions and ARI’s past, and their lasting impact on our ecology today. AND he’s also run a bunch of ARI’s! Including being a core member of the Artworker’s Union Queensland from 1984-1986.
With Paul’s wealth of knowledge, we’re very excited to chat to them about all things ARI! The Good: (currect ARI activity that is thriving, and the benefits of starting your own initiative), The Bad: (political, economical, and institutional pressures that are hindering an artist-led sector), and The Ugly: (the quirky situations you can get youself into when basking in the swampy goodness of a healthy arts ecosystem).
As always, we welcome your thoughts and participation via our live chat (a great chance to ask Paul direct questions about his experiance). If you can’t make it live, submit your questions in advance by emailing brisbanevisualartsadvocacy@gmail.com, and watch us back on YouTube! The recording will be available instantly after the live stream.
BVAA would love to make our live streamed discussions as accessible and inclusive as possible. If there are any specific accessibility needs we can help out with, please email us! And feedback for future discussions is very welcomed!
