CUBEOpen 2011 Exhibition

16 December 2011 - 4 February 2012

Preview: 15th December 2011 6-8pm


CUBEOpen 2011 is the UK's only annual open competition and exhibition of its kind!

Launched in 2007, artists, architects and designers are invited to apply with work that reflects current trends and debates surrounding the spaces and places in which we live. Each year the exhibition highlights contemporary insights into the urban environment.

The CUBEOpen receives applications from around the globe and visitors to the exhibition will have the unique opportunity to see the diverse and engaging ways that artists, architects and designers have been influenced by our surroundings.

An esteemed panel of judges are invited annually to shortlist the applications. Selectors this year included- Robert Powell - Creative Director, Beam Wakefield; Paul Herrmann - Director, Red Eye Photography Network; Jane Anderson - Creative Director, CUBE; Stephen Whittle - Collections Curator, University of Salford.
More than 30 artists have been selected for exhibition, including a compactable TATE model (pictured), Guerrilla artwork and interventions that lead you outside the gallery.

This year's overall winners are Shift//Delete, emerging urban interventionists represented by Upper Space.

The work of this Manchester-based collaboration orbits around central narratives of social, environmental and spatial justice issues and is often unauthorised and anonymously installed within the public realm.

Commendations go to: Ian Kirkpatrick and Kristin Posehn
