will will square up to the theme of boxing, not to splay it lifelessly
across a canvas but to vigorously recatalise the pugilistic narrative. The
artist will become boxer and questions of body, ego, society, medium and
representation will be brought into focus with adrenal clarity amid a series of
fractious blows. The exhibition is the curatorial initiative of Anthony
Colclough.
Opening night wil feature: Professor Vanreusel of KU Leuven, brief academic discussion, 'Boxing, art and poetry'. Barbara Pereyra and Billie Hanne dance performance.
