Curated by the Surface Gallery in Nottingham, this long-standing annual exhibition features hundreds of original artworks connected solely by their 4” x 6” format. The show brings together works by established practitioners, students, new comers and international artists from as far afield as Europe and USA, with each individual postcard acting as a celebration of the diversity in practice and location of the participating artists.

Following the success of last year’s very first Surface Gallery artwork exchange, all participating artists have once again been given the opportunity to receive an original artwork in exchange for their own following the completion of the show. This unique aspect of the exhibition offers artists the chance to connect worldwide through a random and remote exchange system. These original artworks are also for sale throughout the exhibition, priced at just £15. This is an ideal opportunity to discover up and coming artists and to buy some original work for an affordable price.

Before the days of emails, Facebook, and Twitter people would send postcards that time-travelled all over the world as a way to ‘keep in touch’.

Viewing dates are  15 – 25 February and the auction is on Saturday 25 February at 1pm.

Preview is Wednesday, February 15th.

Fi’s work ‘All Purpose’ will be part of the auction.

For items over £100 payments can be spread over a 10-month period with interest free credit available through the Arts Council’s Own Art scheme. Silent bids will be accepted.  

The show runs from November 12th to December 24th.

Fi has 3 peices of work in the show which runs from December 12th-22nd, 2011.  The Private View is on Monday 12th December between 6 and 8pm.

Reader’s Digest is a flourscape – framed archival photographic print and flour. The use of flour is intended to emphasise the unquestioning ease with which we ‘ingest’ language and translate it as thought.  It also represents the potential power we have over our diet of words to enable permanent or temporary changes in thinking.

The show opens on Saturday, October 30th and runs until December 31st, 2011 in Bristol.
