On the Buses
7th - 14th September 1997
Locating and placing live / time based artwork on the move the project travelled to the street level in Glasgow, Globe Gallery in North Shields, Dean Clough in Halifax, Hull time based arts in Hull, 3 Month in Liverpool and Connected in Sunderland showing artists from each of the above locations. Over 30 artists were involved and at each venues there were large audiences ranging from 350 (Street Level Glasgow) to 120 (Globe Gallery , North Shields). The exhibition demonstrated both Catalyst Arts importance as an artist run organisation in the UK and its ability to work with other artist run organisations, establishing a strong network of like minded centres. The project also took on an innovative approach which enabled it to reach a large number of people many of who would not normally attend art events.
