FROZEN
15th - 29th October
Location:
Digitaria Gallery, 60 Berwick St, Soho W1, UK
Curated by Scottee and Gavin Ramsey Frozen sees six artists brought together to exhibit at Digitaria this October. The selected artists have in common the ability to draw inspiration from popular, often ‘low’, culture and events representing them in a different and challenging way.

At a time of year when the whole of London’s art world is putting on their Sunday best Digitaria maintains its program of diverse and alternative exhibitions and events. The deliberately satirically titled Frozen which is reflective of Digitaria’s cross-disciplinary ethos will see six very different artists brought together in this unusual space to offer an alternative to the high gloss, neatly packaged booth fodder that will take hold of the rest of the city.

There will also be a series of artist led events during Digitaria’s regular monthly artist coffee morning where, as ever, free coffee and croissants will be served.

Dan Ford, Elizabeth Eamer, James Unsworth, Jayne Taylor, Judy Jacob, Masayo Matsuda, Piers Atkinson, Ryan McClelland & Sarah Maple
