Statement
Cabin exchange is an annual one week long art event that has placed 10 ft by 8ft storage containers on the streets of Glasgow, Edinburgh. During this time the temporary autonomous spaces are accommodated and transformed by local and international artists’, where an experiment then takes place between the conceptual function of the spaces and the pubic reception of the artist and the work.
Cabin exchange is curated and organized by artists from the UK, who select site specific and site sympathetic works inhabiting a broad range of mediums and genres. For example, presenting performances, exhibitions, theatre, interactive installations and readings.
Active participation with the artists and the public creates the final form of the work. With these projects we aim to create an alternative paradigm of art and it’s public where works build productive community and exchange.
The curatorship of the cabinexchange has evolved with the changing size of the project. It is our aim that in subsequent years we will invite more curators to cabin exchange and expand the roll of curator, ideally all the artists involved could take on all curatorial decisions and responsibility on an equal level to the curators, dissolving any distinctions.
www.cabinexchange.com creates another context for over 120 cabin works to be seen, with a forum for the latest developments accompanied by extensive documentation - photographs, video, audio, drawings, essays, articles and animations. In this way the projects find a wider audience but the selected sites have also widened the cultural and geographic mix of individuals participating in the projects.
