Plus Art

To coincide with the Frieze art fair in Regent’s Park, the third incarnation

of Plus Art will be held in a 5000 square foot warehouse just off Brick Lane

and – fittingly - underneath Atlantis, the biggest art materials suppliers in

Europe.

Curated and produced by neonist Kerry Ryan and artist Declan McMullan,

the temporary gallery will exhibit original works by Tracey Emin, Gavin

Turk, Douglas Gordon, Mat Collishaw, Polly Morgan, Sarah Lucas, Franko

B, Joseph Kosuth, Anselm Keifer, Melville Mitchell, Damien Hirst and

many more.

Maintaining Plus Art’s open-all-hours principle of the previous two years,

the gallery’s doors will not be shut throughout the day and night. That

means one hundred hours of painting, sculpture, video and installation

made by more than sixty artists.

Social lubrication will be provided by live bands and a bar.
