Please join us for the official launch of our first publication. More than three years after the initial 'experiment' at APT, it has definitely been a labour of love, so we’re more than ready to celebrate the result.

No speeches, no readings – it’s really not that sort of book – just an opportunity for relaxed conversation about the project with the authors and (some) contributors.

There will also be a video preview of the next publication, which documents our collaboration with Anna Fairchild, and Lincoln-based artist collective General Practice. (Lincoln Arts Centre Gallery, February 2025)

AUTHORS / PROJECT LEADS: Lucy Renton & Sue Withers
CONTRIBUTORS: Ali Darke, Eric Great-Rex, Andrew Bracey, Andrew Moller & Rob Flint

Toil & Trouble: How We Find Out Who We Are (Volume I / APT Gallery)
This publication concludes the first iteration of our artist-led curatorial project which considers the exhibition as a site of research, and collaboration as a method to explore how meaning is constructed. It comprehensively documents the initial ‘experiment’ at APT (London, 2022) and includes photographs of the exhibition by Andrew Moller, a reflective essay by Andrew Bracey (the chair of our public discussion) and a specially commissioned artwork by Rob Flint – ‘Is An Artist’. All copies available at the launch will include a special poster edition of this found text artwork.
