Fig-2
presents 50 projects over 50 weeks in the ICA Studio, in association with
Outset. Please join us for fig-2 openings every Monday from 6-8pm throughout
2015. As the ICA is closed on Mondays, to reach the Studio please use the ramp
entrance to the Studio from Carlton House Terrace, at the top of the Duke of
York Steps.
Fatoş Üstek,
Art Fund Curator at fig-2, explains that: 'fig-2's format utilises change as a
constant. fig-2's structure of fifty successive exhibitions realised on a
weekly basis operates as a catalyst to manifest the aesthetic and critical
currency of our times. fig-2 will cultivate uncertainty and conscious
incompleteness through each and every project that is driven by the radical
imagination of artists, writers, dancers, architects, and designers'.
fig-2 is a
revival of the project fig-1, which was conceived and developed by Mark Francis
and Jay Jopling in 2000. Experimental in its nature, each project was
programmed only a few weeks in advance to maintain as much spontaneity as
possible. fig-1 presented projects by Jeremy Deller, Richard Hamilton, Runa
Islam, Oliver Payne and Nick Relph, Will Self, Patti Smith, Caruso St John and
Philip Treacy, among others.
