Fully Awake is a group exhibition featuring work by 36 artists that celebrates the inter-generational relationships formed by teaching painting in UK art schools. The curators invite 12 artists to submit a piece of work and these artists then invite two ‘guest’ artists to exhibit with them: an artist that they have been taught by, and an artist that they have taught. This unorthodox approach creates engaging and surprising relationships between those participating.
Fully Awake is a five-part cycle of exhibitions. Initially presented at blip blip blip, Leeds, and subsequently at House for an Art Lover, Glasgow, this exhibition at the Dyson Gallery is the third iteration.
The cycle of shows eschews thematic, aesthetic or theoretical concerns but aims to reveal instead much deeper levels of incidental human, personal, and psychological connections between student and teacher.
This exhibition is generously supported by Manchester School of Art and the Royal College of Art. Please contact Anne Duffau for more information.
