the next step in there is beauty's plan for world domination is set! we have been working with spanish artist and photographer susana lopez fernandez to exhibit the project in gijón. gijón is an industrial city on the northern coast of spain, originally a roman settlement, which grew from a small fishing village into a port city with a population of around 280,000.
the exhibition continues from where the last, in stoke-on-trent, left off. there will, again, be a looped film showing all the images submitted so far, including all submissions received since that last exhibition. additionally, this show will feature prints by 13 artists, selected to show the broad scope of material received and to show just how wide ranging the project has become.
the selected contributors are: anna hindocha, ella klenner, emma thackham, felicity ford, iain macleod-brudenell, jen cantwell, jodie cresswell, joshua daniels, julie brixey-williams, siobhan tarr, sophie gibson, susana lopez fernandez and victor angelo. click on each name to see their selected image.
the show will run from 30th july until 10th august at the ezcurdia gallery. plans are being formulated to present a free "beauty" themed public workshop to run in conjunction with the show.
there is still time to make it into the show. the deadline for submitted images to be included is july 1st, 2010, so send your images in to thereisbeautyinthecity@yahoo.co.uk. and if you can't make that date, don't worry, the project will continue with more exciting plans to exhibit in warsaw in september. so if you haven't got involved yet, apply for that magnet and send us your images of urban beauty.
