Artist of the Day: 25th Edition

24 Jun-6 Jul 2024

Overview

We are pleased to announce the 25th edition of Artist of the Day, a landmark programme started by Angela and Matthew Flowers in 1983, with exhibiting artists selected by leading contemporary artists for a one-day exhibition. This year the fast-paced, revolving two week show schedule comprises 10 international artists, each presenting a one-day solo exhibition at our Cork Street space, with the support of their artist selector.

Each edition of Artist of the Day we look forward to encountering the unknown and unpredictable, along with incredible one-off presentations. The constraint of time to promote and install an exhibition for one day only ensures there is a tangible energy, with each day's show incomparable to the day before or the day after. Artist of the Day has given a platform and context to artists whom their selector is really excited by, including artists who may not have exhibited much before or whom their selector feels is due a public showing. Accompanied by the support of their selectors and the gallery, the exhibiting artists essentially have the freedom to take over our space for a day. The relationship between the selector and the artist adds an intimate power to the daily installations, resulting in a unique, very positive fusion of mentorship, friendship and collaboration within the undercurrent of the whole series. — Matthew Flowers
