Abstract

 A touring exhibition curated by Tara Gilbee, 'the space in between' includes the work of 32 artists who have each responded to the internal space of a book carved and presented to them for their artistic intervention.

After spending time collecting dozens of English and foreign language books, Gilbee utilised a scalpel to carve out a section from each book. Artists were then presented with two objects, the carved book and the core which had been removed, with which to make a work. From this starting point, a vast array of results were generated, including sculptural, installation based, drawing and photographic works.
