Painting-exhibition poster series

The posters use a paint tube as the setting for the exhibition information. Marks taken from the exhibiting artists’ canvases appear on the tubes, bringing elements of the paintings into the announcement with the artists’ approval. The image links the work on show with the material used to make it. Gallery details sit on the tube’s label, so the exhibition’s practical information becomes part of the same object. The series echoes the central enquiry of the exhibition, where tubes with canvases were given out to strangers on the streets
