Thrilled to be part of AMBruno’s latest project which launches at 21st International Contemporary Artists’ Book Fair, Leeds this weekend - Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th March. 

Here’s some more information from AMBruno’s Facebook page: The 2018 theme is Cover - cover in terms of protection and of the hiding and/or the revealing through suggestion of the book’s substance, and that this may be in relation to wider notions, metaphoric and allusive, of cover. The twelve artists have taken different approaches to cover, and yet the books are an anthology, they speak to each other, as connections from book to book may be discernable within the overarching theme, thus forming a succinct and dynamic exhibition. The participating artists are George Cullen, Judy Goldhill, Martha Hellion, Bethan Hughes, Julie Johnstone, Philip Lee, Sophie Loss, John McDowall, Linda Parr, Ximena Perez Grobet, Andrea Robinson and Cally Trench.

On view beginning November 4th:

 AMBruno "Project 101"

The Lab Gallery (N.E. corner of 47th Street & Lexington), NYC

The London based group of artists, AMBruno, presents an installation of 101 individual film works by 40 artists. All the pieces are silent and of exactly 101 seconds (1' 41") duration, these will be screened at The LAB on an array of monitors positioned throughout the space. Working in various disciplines the members of AMBruno were brought together by 'their wish to extend beyond their particular discipline, be it painting, photography, video, performance or sculpture'. Initially this exploration focused on the medium of artists' books; a number of which are now in private and major public collections, including those of the Tate and the Victoria & Albert Museum. AMBruno's commitment to experimentation led the members to take their work beyond the material temporality of the book, into that of the moving image. It was proposed that each member develop a screen work with the single formal constraint of 101 seconds duration; being more than a clip but less than a short. -thru Nov 25, 2011
