CRUNCH ART FAIR / 18/11/11 - 20/11/11
Location: The Globe, Newport Street, Hay-on-Wye, HR3 5BG
Works by Darren Harvey-Regan / David Rickard talk and screening
Sumarria Lunn Gallery will be exhibiting at Crunch: the art and philosophy festival at Hay and will present artist Darren Harvey-Regan, whose works entwine image and object, creating a hybridization of photography and sculpture alongside a special screening of David Rickard’s performance ‘Exhaust'.
The art pavilion at Crunch will be showcasing work from a handful of contemporary galleries who engage with the display of art as an activity that is not only commercial, but also fundamentally philosophical too.
The festival will also be host to an impressive range of cultural, artistic and intellectual figures. From Hans Ulrich Obrist to Susan Hiller, fresh from her retrospective at the Tate earlier this year, the Crunch 2011 speakers will debate and engage with this year's theme, 'Awake in the Universe'.
Sunday 20th November at 1.30pm
Sumarria Lunn will present a special screening of David Rickard’s performance ‘Exhaust’. Exhibited at the Venice Biennale, Rickard collected his every exhalation for 24 hours in a series of large foil balloons, visually demonstrating that even at rest we don’t exist passively in space but have a constant demand on it.
Hear both David Rickard and Darren Harvey-Regan in conversation with curator Will Lunn following the screening.
