It Couldn’t Be Made Up - I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter
March 11th to March 13th 2008
Surface Gallery’s annual showcase of work by Nottingham Trent University’s Fine Art department continues with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter.
This year’s NTU shows bring us 5 exhibitions in 4 weeks. The students have been asked to propose exhibitions in response to the theme It Couldn’t Be Made Up.
I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter
Tuesday 11th March 6.00pm - Thursday 13th March
The exhibition brings together work where first impressions are often deceptive and things not always what they seem. The reassuringly familiar becomes disrupted or disturbed by the suggestion of other possibilities that lurk beneath the register of the initial glance; or by revelations and discoveries which slowly unravel the logic of the original reading.
Events
As part of 'It Couldn’t Be Made Up - I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter', we held several events over the course of the exhibition. See below for further details.
Interventions and Performances
Throughout the programme there will also be a number of interventions and performances where mistaken identities, secret exchanges and absurd encounters occur in the gallery space and erupt into the public realm.
Includes work by Dominique Humphreys, Bill Nguyen and Alia Pathan.
