CUBEOpen 09 November 5, 2009

The CUBEOpen exhibition showcases the best work by both emerging talent and more established artists, whose practices reflect current trends and debates surrounding the urban built environment.

Don’t miss the opportunity to see this diverse, political and often playful take on the spaces and places in which we live.

Highlights include site-specific drawing by artist Yuko Saito, playful painterly interventions in the city and gallery by Liverpool-based artist Brendan Lyons, cast sculptures by Ludovic Boden, sketchbook drawings by Alexandra Blum taken from the Dalston Construction series….and a swimming pool!

The overall winner for 2009 is Simon Le Ruez, who will be exhibiting recent sculpture and neon works that are concerned with the urban built environment in their evocation of abandoned piers, bunkers, balconies, buildings and colonies. Le Ruez will be resident at CUBE during the 2010 CUBEOpen exhibition.
