HELLO, LONDON.

This summer, Paddles ON! is going global! Building on the momentum of the inaugural event in New York, Phillips and Tumblr are bringing the digital art auction to Phillips’s headquarters in London on July 3rd at 7pm. Curated by Lindsay Howard, this collection is the second digital art auction at Phillips, and the first in the UK, in recognition of the increasing viability of this work in the contemporary art marketplace.

The event will include a two-week exhibition (June 21-July 3), an online auction powered by Paddle8, and a live auction led by one of Phillips’s world class auctioneers. In addition to the auction and exhibition, Phillips will host a series of public programs in partnership with Arcadia_Missa which will explore what it means to create, sell, and collect digital art in the 21st century. These discussions will be livestreamed and online viewers will be encouraged to participate using the #PaddlesON hashtag on Tumblr and Twitter.

Artists and galleries will receive 100% of the sale profits and a portion of the buyer’s premium will be donated to Opening Times, a new not-for-profit online commissioning body.The exhibition and auction will feature 23 works by 23 artists, many of whom have been members of the Tumblr community for years:

Welcome to the Show Part 2 - Accompanying Text

The GIF was voted word of the year in 2012 and recognized as an official verb by the oxford university press. Don’t worry YOLO, an acronym for “you only live once”, was close behind.

The GIF is 26 years old, a bitmap image format popular for it’s ability to compress images to reduce transfer time and provide a full colour image from a palette of up to 256 colours chosen from the 24-bit RGB colour space.

The GIF has had recent resurgence of mainstream popularity over the World Wide Web due to its wide support and portability but the biggest reason for it’s popularity is that you can use this file format to animate and make low resolution film clips, which are looped endlessly.

Announcing their popularity there is even a new annual award dedicated to celebrating these looped little animations that propagate Tumblr and Facebook. The categories for the GIFY awards include art and design, news and politics, sport and animals; there is even a separate category all together for cats.

In the article Loop the Loop by Morgan Quaintance, he evaluates that ‘GIF’s are capable of reducing the complexity of modern life to the status of a four-second gag, recalibrating our emotional and empathic responses in the process.’ Although for me the GIF acts as instant gratification in which our culture seems to be embedded in now; a culture where we are expected to decide everything in a matter of seconds. We immediately choose whether we like something or not then throw it away and search for the next thing.

In the film six degrees of separation one of the main characters Ouisa talks about their lives events becoming anecdotes for dinner parties. I feel our anecdotes have metamorphosed and compressed much like the image format of a GIF, in which our interesting ‘real life’ incidents are shortened into some sort of collective mass culture and regurgitated in a quick amusing gag that carries a collective cultural idea or symbol. We then use this to out-trump each other and rather than at a dinner party we sit in the comfortable glow of our computer screen where physical interaction is kept to a minimum.

Welcome to the Show is a three part series, which pair’s one predominately post-internet artist with one sculptural based artist, purposely forcing each artist into a category highlighting the taxonomy that allows group sorting and categorizing of various images and text.

Our next exhibition opens on March 1st and features work from Yves Scherer & Alec Mackenzie (aka Bad Blueprints).
