26th January through 02nd of February 2012

B.C. are delighted to present B.C. #2, a group exhibition by some of the world’s most exciting new artists, at Mexico Project Space, Leeds. Here 29 artists were asked to create black and white artworks which have been photocopied onto A2 size fluorescent paper. The artists have consented to their work being liberally distributed by submitting the artwork via e-mail as a digital image, then allowing the curators to create the final artwork. This adds to the overall effect of this very unique exhibition.  Each artwork will be widely available, and in a format that many would regard as throw-away— what effect does this have on the value of the artwork?

The exhibiting artists are:

John Bohl, Martin Cole, Simon and Tom Bloor, Jaakko Pallasvuo, Rob Chavasse, Veronica So, Bonjour Jean-Jacques, Milo Brennan, Harry Meadley, Samara Scott, Gergo Szinyova, Clay Hickson, James Hines, Aaron Angell, Sofia Leiby, Sean Roy Parker, Michael Willis, Dan Ford, Kate Steciw, Hugh Frost, Travis Stearns, Jamie Bracken Lobb, S. Mark Gubb, Simon Whybray, I Iz Industries, Gustavo Eandi, Piotr Lakomy, Justin Baird and Tom Godfrey.

B.C. is a curatorial project founded in 2010 by Charlie Hood and Barnie Page.

The artworks will be on show in the gallery space at Mexico as pasted onto the walls and online at bazandchaz.com.  A photocopied booklet of the artist’s work will also be available at the show and later online.
