Hollington & Kyprianou

A set of performances for 24 Frames of Separation, (Art Shop, Brixton Hill, London, August 6th 2000), curated by Simon Hollington and Claire Taylor.

Invitation was made for pieces to be staged in front of the Art shop-front in Brixton Hill, each to be executed within and at least for a maximum of 5 minutes. The intention was to use the shop front as a frame and to produce a video / 24 photographs of the staged pieces by the 24 invited people with minimum waiting between each piece.

Artists were invited on the basis that their piece did not block the public footpath / thoroughfare and that it did not constitute a performance proper, that it should not cause either a public nuisance or interfere with the traffic, or do anything that could be described as having caused an accident, and that did not in any way deface the backing property (or at least if it did any of the above it had to be staged and removed very quickly).
