"MARVELOUS" goes to the ART HOSTEL in Leeds, UK. Yippppeee!

Art Hostel is the first social enterprise in the UK, providing affordable accommodation created by artists. Situated within a converted seed warehouse on the oldest street in Leeds city centre. The project has been developed by contemporary arts’ charity East Street Arts who have been supporting artists locally and internationally for over 25 years.

Marina Moreno, Artemotion and the Venice Vending Machine ( DISPENSING FREE ART ) are very proud to take a new step forward in our direction and be included as part of the “Seeding Art Currency” project curated by Janine Sykes in collaboration with East Street Arts at the Art Hostel in Leeds. The ethos and the driving concept of the Art Hostel perfectly merges with our own philosophy at Artemotion, that of artist led projects.

School of Art submission for Christmas fundraiser!

Our 'MARVELOUS REALISM' artwork travels to the TATE EXCHANGE LIVERPOOL

  28TH JULY TO 12TH OF AUGUST 2018

TATE EXCHANGE LIVERPOOL

The Venice Vending Machine ( DISPENSING FREE ART ) project is a “collaborative, participatory, inclusive live art public installation”, conceived by Venetian artist Marina Moreno. Its aim is to question the role and the value of Art in our society, whilst aiming to promote emerging artists alongside some famous and established ones. It creates an intriguing game for the participants who feel compelled to enjoin and involve themselves in a dialogue that the artist Marina creates in posing the question:
“HOW DO YOU VALUE ART?”
Since the first Venice Vending Machine installation, it has involved over 400 artists from all over the world and has attracted professionals such as curators, art historians and art collectors while extending the possibility of an encounter with people that normally would not be interested in “Art”.
Unlike past VVM events, and in keeping with the spirit of this Tate Exchange Liverpool the acquisition of a work of art will depend uniquely on a dialogue about the notion of art in our society and culture with no monetary exchange, focusing only on the intrinsic value of art.
