Official Opening of New Artist-Led Gallery: The Space


'Chalk it Down' An Exhibition of Contemporary Drawing

Cork Contemporary Projects are happy to finally announce the opening of their new gallery 'The Space' in Cork city centre.

As many of you know CCP applied for grant aid earlier this year to set up a new artist-led space in the city centre to be used as both a gallery and studios. This financial support was not been granted and so CCP continued with their efforts to utilise free space in the city, focusing their interests on finding a creative space for emerging and established artists to exhibit.

The first of these new projects was 'The Eviction Show' at 129 Sunday's Well Road, a collaborative artistic intervention with a residential space. The exhibition featured work by each of the five members of CCP.

In recent months, CCP artists have worked independently and collaboratively on a number of projects including, arts festival The Avant, music festival Feile le Cheile, artists in residency Paperback Project and stage production The Factory Girls.

The Space is located on the top floor of No. 7 South Mall, and opens Friday 2nd October with ‘Chalk it Down’ an exhibition of contemporary drawing.

Moniker After Party 10pm -2am at The Infirmary Bar, Mardyke Complex.

Your support and attendance will be greatly appreciated,

We hope to see you there.

FEATURING WORK BY: EDEL O REILLY. DIANE HARRINGTON.
Cork Contemporary Projects (CCP) are a new arts collective based in Cork city with a strong focus on collaboration between the disciplines of art, architecture and design.

As the title suggests, the venue is currently home to two members of CCP and is intended to be
renovated and leased out to new tenants. The decision to seize this transition period as an
opportunity to exhibit has been quite recent and so CCP intend for the show to be the result of an open studio, highlighting the fact that there are always opportunities to make and show work, even when you’re being evicted.

We hope you enjoy the show and thank you for your support.
