Congratulations on the opening of ATP08 it looks like an interesting show - How were the artists selected and were you funded for this?

Thank you Jo!

We sent out an e-mail asking a selection of artists to take part, we then asked them to send on the proposal to artists they thought would be interested. We also contacted studio groups and artist networks in each city asking for proposals. We hoped the word would spread virally so we would get submissions from a variety of sources. We recieved over fifty submissions and have been delighted with the high level of the work.

We havn't recieved any funding and have relied on the genorosity of all involved. Wherever possible we have kept costs down by using free
facilities such as this blog.

I have had rather a lot of positive feedback via email regarding
the creation of this group, some very enthusiastic. What I would
like to see now is some discussion on the net amongst the various
people interested. In particular we will need to decide on a name
for the group.

It's great that artists once in a while get to gather and meet inspite of each having busy schedule. - tnomeralc design toys -
